Alum and Ammonia in our Bread

Alum and Ammonia in our Bread
A nuisance that troubled England fifty
years ago is now rapidly spreading in
this country, that is putting Alum in the
bread we eat. This question is causing
great deal Of discussion at the present
moment. as it is revealed that alum is
being used as substitute for cream Of
tartar in baking powders. A story is
told that very large percentage of the
baking powders sold on the market con-
tain either alum or ammonia, and many
Of them contain both these pernicious
drugs. Much timely alarm is felt at the
wholesale use of alum in bread, biscuit
and pastry. To young children, grow
ing girls, persons of weakly frame, alum
bread eaten morning noon and evening
is the most harmful. II is the small
quantities taken at every meal that do
the mischief. Alum is cheap, costing
but two or three cents pound while
cream of tartar costs Soc, and the high
price Of cream of tartar has led cheap
baking powder to be made of alum. If
the reader wants to know something OF
the corrosive qualities of alum let him
touch piece to his tongue then reflect
how it acts on the tender delicate coats
of the stomach.
Following is list compiled by the
Scientific American, of the alum and am
monia baking powders that have already

NJ. agent for this city. The movement did
not meet with the endorsement. evident
ly expected, and in fact resulted in a
counter movement on the part of Mr..
Boss numerous friends. AS a result it
becomes quite evident that with the
great m ajority of the business men OF

sidered by them a competent official

No man acting as railroad agen. or rep

comes in contact, but the gentleman in
question comes as near doing so as is
possible, and change ofagents by the
