Science i'm Bread Making.

At a recent annual meeting of the
American Chemical Society, held in
Washington, d. c., the question Of
the value of carbonate of ammonia as
a leavening agent in bread, or as
used in baking powders, came up for
discussion, in which Prof. Barker of
the university of Pennsylvania, and
president of the the society; DR..
Richardson, late of the United States
department of agriculture in WASH
ington; DR.. VIM. McMutrie, late
professor of chemistry in the univer-
| sity of Illinois DR.. f. II. BARLEY,
late chemist of the Brooklyn N. y,
board of health, and professor of
chemistry of the Long Island college,
and others took part.
The consensus of opinion was over.
whelming in favor of the employment
of ammonia. 1t vas stated as a fact
that ammonia rendered the gluten of
the -four more soluble than the orig
inal gluten, and that the bread in
which this action was produce d by
carbonate of ammonia must be more
digestible and hence more healthful,
and because of the extreme volatility
of carbonate of ammonia and its COM
plete expulsion from the bread in the
process of baking, it is one OF the
most useful, most healthful and most
valuable ~leavening agents known.
These conclusions are borne out
by the very elaborate and exhaustive
experiments made by Prof. j. w.
Mallet, Of the university of Virginia,
which show conclusively that bread
made with a baking power in which
one per cent, Of carbonate of am.
mcnia is used, in connection with
cream Of tarter and soda, is not only
of uniformly better color and texture,
but a product more wholesome, be-
cause the ammonia serves to neutral
ize any organic or Tactic acids present
In the flour,

BAKING 0WDERS
What the Minnesota Authori-
ties Know About Them.

est. Paul, Mini, Pioneer Press.)
If there is a doubt in anybody's
mind as to the quality of the various
baking powders of the market, it will
be settled by the evidence given
upon the subject by the state officials
of Minnesota. The dairy and food
commission and the state chemist
are the highest official authorities
upon such subjects in this state, and
their evidence will be accepted as
disinterestod and unprecedented. 1t
is their business to examine the quail
ity and the different food products,
and to suppress the sale of those
found impure and unwholesome, and
all will admit that they have per-
formed their duties without fear or
favor.
AT q recent examination by a leg
islative committee to determine the
qualities of the various baking pow
ders sold in Minnesota, state chemist
and analyst to the food and dairy
commissioner, DIR. Benjamin F. Drew,
gave the following evidence:
Cues DR.. Drew, l see by the re-
port of the dairy and food commits
sion of this state that in making an
alysis of the various baking powders
of this country you report as a result
Of your work that the Royal Baking
Powder contains and gives off in
baking a, greater per cent. of car
bonic acid gas (leavening gas) than
any other baking powder made is
that true?
Ans.-Ycs sir, that is a fact.
Ques.-Doctor, you also found
from experiment that the Royal Bak.
ing Powder will keep longer and re-
tain Its qualities better than any
other powder made, did you not?
Ans.-Ies, sir, l think it does.
Ques.-Now, the two most desir-
able qualities in baking powder are
the amount of carbonic acid gas it
contains and gives off and the length
of time it will keep, are they not?
Ans.-Yes sir.
Ques.-Then the Royal Baking
Powder, possessing these qualities, is
the best powder made, is it not?
Ans WE'LL, that would be the
natural conclusion
Ques.-Well, that is the fact, is it
not?
Ans.-Yes, l think it is. l con-
slider it one OF the best baking pow
ders made.
