strength has been found superior to
other baking powders, and as far as l
know, it is the only powder which VIII
raise large bread perfectly. It's use
avoids the long period during which
the Yeast made dough must stand IN
order that the starch may ferment and
there is also no kneading necessary.
The two materials used in the Royal,
cream of tartar and soda, are perfectly
harmless, even when eaten. But they
are combined in exact compensating
weights so that when chemical action
begins between them they practIcally
disappear, the substance of both hav-
ING been taken up to form the carbon
ic acid gas More than this, the
proper method of using the powder
insures the most thorough mixing
with the -four The proper quantity
being taken, it is mixed with the flour
and stirred around in it. The mix
ture is then sifted several times and
this insures that in every part OF the
-four there shall be few particles OF
the powder The salt and milk or Wa
ter being added, the dough is made up
as quickly as possible and moulded
into the loaves.
These are placed in the oven and
baked. But the very moment the
warmth and moisture attack the mix
ture of cream of tartar and soda, these
two Ingredients chemically combine
and carbonic acid or leavening gas ls
evolved. The conse 1uenca may be
seen at a glance, the bread is raised
during the time it Is baking. IN the
oven, and this is the most perfect of
all conceivable methods Of raising 1T.
Here, then, there is no chance for
germs of disease to get into the dough
and thence into the stomach, more
than that the bread is necessarily as
sweet as possible, there having been
no time during which it could sour.
This involves the fact that the bread
so made will keep longer, as it Is less
likely to be contaminated by the germs
that affect the souring process.
1t will be strange if the crowds of
visitors to the Worlds Fair do not
greatly increase the number of con-
tagious diseases, which we will have to
treat. Under these circumstances IS
it not folly of follies to open single
channel through which these germe
may reach us? Is it not the part OF
wisdom to watch with the greatest care
all that we eat and drink, and to see
that none but the safest and best meth
DDS are employed in the preparation
of our food? To me it seems az
though there could be but one answer
to questions like these.
I have shown the danger of using
the yeast raised bread, and with this [
have shown how that danger may be
avoided. The ounce of prevention
which in this case is neither difficult
nor expensive is certainly worth many
pounds of cure, and the best thing
about it is that it may be relied on al
most absolutely. Those who eat bread
or biscuits or rolls made at home with
Royal baking powder may be sure they
Passaic City record., 1893-08-19

The fermentation produces carbonic
acid gas, and this, having it's origin IN
every little particle of the starch
which is itself everywhere in the flour,
pushes aside the particles of the dough
TO give itself room. This is what is
called raising the bread.
1t needs but glance to see that it
is, in its effects on the dough, purely
mechanical. The dough, which was
before o close-grained mass, is now
full of little holes, and when cooked
in this condition is what we ordinarily
call light. This porous quality of
bread enables the stomach to rapidly
and easily digest it, for the gastric
juices quickly soak into and attack it
from all sides. The fermentation of
the dough, however, uses up portion
of the nutrient elements of the loaf.
If it be possible, therefore, to produce
light porous loaf without this de-
struction and without the ''kneading"
process, which fills tbs dough with
germs and filth, and without the long

SOME SANITARY ASPECTS OF BREAD
MAKING.
Health Commissioner, New York City
TT CYRUS EDISON. NJ. D.


1t is necessary, if one would under
stand the sanitary aspects of bread
making. tosfully comprehend the pres
ent theory held by scientists of germs
and the part played by themin disease
The theory of disease germs is merely
the name given to the knowledge had
of those germs by medical men, knowl-
edge which is the result of lnnumera-
BILE experiments. Being this, the old
term OF ''theory" has become mis-
nomer. A germ of a disease is plant,
so small that I do not know how to ex-
press intelligibly to the general reader
its lack of size. When this germ IS in
troduced into the blood or tissues of
the body, its action appears to be an
alogous to that which takes place when
yeast is added to dough. 1t attacks
certain elements of the blood or TISSUES,
and destroys them, at the same time
producing new substances.

TO AMEND THE REVENUE LAW.
Twfchells Plan to Reduce Work Of
Aasessmont-New Road Law,


County Auditor Twichell and Commits
sioner Fred Gasch both returned from
Olympia on Friday evening. Mr.. Twichell
pronounced himself satisfied with the re-
suits Of his visit, the object Of which was
to present amendments to the mechanical
portion Of the present revenue law, with
the object Of decreasing the work Of assess
ing. equalizing and extending on the
assessment rolls; and to change the time
of the delivery of the tax rolls to the
county treasurer from December to the
second Monday in January. This change
is TO relieve the treasurer Of the difficulty
Of having to make his TN al settlements on
a partially completed roll and at the very
busiest part of the year.
Mr.. Gasch said that he had draft of q
new measure concerning the county roads
with him, and that the board would con-
slider it at it's meetings next week.
The details of the reduction in the SAL
aries of the employees of the county Of
fees will also be considered at that meet
ing.
Early this week Auditor Twichell will
forward to Olympia drafts of amendments
to the existing laws governing the duties
of auditors and county commissioners.
which will be necessary in case the
char ges in the revenue law already pro-
posed shall be adopted by the legislature.
County Ass essor ID. r. Abraham leaves
tomorrow for Olympia to attend the an
nual convention of the county assessors of
the state. At this convention the assess
ors Will discuss the manner of making
assessments, so as to adopt uniform sys-
tenn throughout the state. Some sections
of the revenue law pertaining 10 assess
ments will also be taken under advise
ment, and very likely recommendation
be made to the legislative committees on
revenue and taxation.
