Laws restricting the use OF alum in
bread have been in force in England
Germany and France for many years
In this country, in Minnesota, Wiscon

powders has also been effected. In sew

ed unless they are branded to show tina,
they contain alum. and in the District OF
Columbia. under the laws Of congress
the sale of bread containing alum has
been made illegal.
Following are the names OF some oil
the brands of baking powder sold in this
vicinity which are shown by recen,
analysis to contain alum. Housekeepers
and grocers should cut the list out and
