SOUTH DAKOTA FED ON ALUM.
The Harmful Drug Concealed in
Baking Powders.

II"cehC lnVeStlSatlOn shows that
the stores r largely stocked with
baking powders which contain alum,
the injurious in edient which the
Iowa and Minnesota State Boards
of Health have SO strongly condrm-
ed. England, Germany and France
have laws prohibiting the use Of
alum in bread, and The states Of
Minnesota and Wisconsin forbid
baking powder containing alum to
be put upon the market unless the
words "this baking powder contains
alum are printed upon the label of
every package offered for sale.
This is the danger signal which the
law throws out for the protection
Of the people. Yet many of the
makers of alum baking powders
such as the Calumet" while keep
ing away from Minnesota and Wis
consin, have the etfrontery to offer
their condemned powder to consu1n-
ers here. These alum powders are
frequently labeled pure "best in
the world. none SO good" or with
some other equally misleading catch
phrase.
Below will be found a partial list
of the baking pow'ers sold in this
market that have been examined
and found to contain alum:
