STRINGENT FOOD LAW.
Prohibits the Use Of Arsenic or Alum in
all Articles Of Diet.

The law enacted by the Missouri
Legislature, a copy of which was recent
ly published in our columns, and
which prohibits the manufacture or
sale of any article intended for food or
to be used in the preparation OF food,
which contains alum, arsenic ammonia,
etc, places that state in the lead in the
matter of sanitary Legislation.
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-
sin, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky and
several other States, direct Legislation
In reference to the sale of alum baking
powders has also been effected In
several of these States their sale is
prohibited unless they are branded to
show that they contain alum, and in
the District Of Columbia, under the
laws of Congress, the sale of bread con-
tanning alum las been made illegal.
Following are the names of some of
the brands of baking powders sold in
this vicinity which are shown by re-
cent analysis to contain alum. House
keepers and grocers should cut the list
out and keep it Tor reference:

CROWN .............. ....... Contains Alum
Mani. by j. P. Dieter Co, Chicago.
DELICATESSE- Contains Alum.
EVANS ...........-..--............C Contains Alum
In addition to these, many grocers
sell what they call their own private or
special brands. These powders are
put up for the grocer, and his name put
upon the labels by manufacturers of
alum powders. These manufactures,
it is said, find their efforts to market
their goods in this way greatly aided by
the ambition of the grocer to sell a
powder with his own name upon the
label, especially as he can make an
abnormal profit upon it. Many grocers,
do not know that the powders they are
thus pushing are alum powders the
sale of which would be a misdemeanor
under the law referred to.
1t is quite i'm pOss ible to give the
names of all the alum baking powders.
they are constantly appearing in all
sorts of DISCUSSES, under different
names and at all kinds of prices, even
as low as five and ter cents a pound.
They can be avoided, however, by the
housekeeper who will bear in mind
that all baking powders sold at twenty
five cents or less per pound are liable
to contain alum, as pure cream OF tar
tar powders cannot be produced at any
thing like this price.
