IMPURE BAKING POWDER SEIZED
The New York Board of Health Find II
Contains Alum and Rock, Declare 1t
Dangerous to Health and Dump
1t Into the River.

The New York papers report that
the Health Department of that city
has seized as dangerous to health
nearly two tons of cheap mixtures sold
for baking powder and dumped them
into the offal scow to be destroyed.
More of the powder was found in
Sixth ave. department store. The re-
port of the analysis of the Health
Department stated that it was "an
alum baking powder" containing alum
and pulverized rock.
The different Health Authorities
seem to have different ways of re-
pressing the sale of bad baking pow
ders. In England they have prosecut-
eu tne grocers under the general law
and broken up the traffic. In Missouri
the sale o. alum baking powder Is
actually prohibited by law. In New
York they seize the unwholesome stuff
and cast it into the river without any
discussion. The latter way is certain
ly effective.
The alum baking powders are 1su-
ally offered at a low price, ten to
twenty cents a pound. or with some
prize. as temptation to the house
wife.
Consumers can protect themselves
by buying only high-grade baking
powder of established name and
reputation. Do not be tempted by the
grocer to take something else as Just
as good" or "our own brand" for the
trials show that the grocer himself Is
often deceived by unscrupulous max
ers, and is selling an alum powder
without knowing it.
There are several good powders on
the market; let the housekeeper insist
on having what she knows is right,
and not be induced to risk the life o:
the family for an imaginary saving Of
q few cents.
