How Cheap Baking Powder
Is made,

A recent seizure of a lot Of
Cheap baking powders by the
authorities of a neighboring city
has exposed the character of the
low priced brands of baking pow
5ers which many manufacturers
are Offering throughout the country.
The price Of the powders first
attracted attention to them. Samp-
les were taken and analysed. The
official report of the analysis show
ed the stuff to be "alum powders, "
composed chiefly of alum, sulphur
ic acid and pulverized rock. The
powders were declared dangerous
to health and geYeral thousand
p{pnnas were contiscated and de-
stroyed.
Physicians have frequently eau
toned consumers against mixing
food with these so-called ''cheap''
baking powders. They are all
found, when analysed, to contain
large percentages of alum and sui.
phdric acid to which are added
various sorts OF filling matter some
times both injurious and nasty.
The high class, cream OF tartar
baking powders, are the most eco
nomical and Wholesome ana shoul'
A,ways be selected for use, They
viii be found cheaper in the end
besides making ths food better ant
more healthfnl.
