FOOD TESTS IN NEW YORK.

| OfncIaI Analysis of Baking Powder
Authorizations in Cream of Tartar.
Under the direction of the New York
State Board of Health, eighty-four differ
ent kinds of baking powders. embracing all
the brands that could be found for sale in
the State, were submitted to examination
and analysis by Prof. c. F. Chandler, a
member of the State Poard and President
of the New York City Board of Health, as
sisted by Prof. Edward G. Love, the we'll
known United States Government chemist.
The official report shows that large
number OF the powders examined were
found to contain alum or lime; many of
them to such an extent as to render them
seriously Objectionable for use in the
preparation of human food.
Alum was found in twenty-nine sam
pies. This drug is employed in baking
powders to cheaper their cost. The pres
ence of lime is attributed to the impure
cream of tartar of commerce used in their
manufacture. Such cream of tartar was
also analyzed and found to contain lime
and other impurities; in some samples to
The extent Of % per cent. of their entire
weight.
All the baking powders of the market.
with the single exception of Royal" mot
including the alum ana phosphate powders.
which have not the virtue of even an IN :
pure cream of tartar, are made from the
adulterated cream of tartar of commerce,
and consequently contain lime to cores
ponding extent.
The only baking powder yet found by
chemical ANALYSIS TO be entirely free from
lime and absolutely pure is the Royal"
This perfect purity results from the exclu-
Sive use of cream of tartar specially re-
fined and prepared by patent processes
which totally remove the tartrate OF lime
and other impurities. The cost of this
chemically pure cream of tartar is much
greater than any other, and on account OF
this greater cost is used in no baking pow
der but the Royal"
Prof. Love, who made the analysis of
baking powders for the New York Statr
Board OF Health, as well as for the Gov
ernment, says of the purity and whole
someness OF the Royal"
Il find the royal Baking Powder com
posed Of pure and wholesome ingredients
1t is cream Of tartar powder of high de-
gree of merit, and does not contain either
alum or phosphates or other injurious sub
stance. Z. q. LOVE, PHI. D."
1t is highly satisfactory to the housekeep-
ers of this vicinity, where the Royal Bak-
ing Powder is in general use, that the in
yestigations by the analysts in Msssachu-
sets, New York and Ohio, the only states
that have thus far taken action upon this
important subject agree in chasing II as
the purest and most efficient baking powder
in the market.
