How Cheap Taking Powder Is
Made.

a seizure Of a lot Of "cheap"
baking powders by the suthori-
ties Of a neigeboring city has
exposed the character Of the
low priced brands of baking
powders which many manu-
facturers are offering through
out the country. The price Of
the powders first attracted at
tention to them. Samples were
taken and analysed. The of
fetal report of the analysis
showed the stuff to be "alum
powder" composed chiefly Of
alum, sulphuric acid and pulver-
lied rock. The powders were
declared dangerous to health
and several thousand pounds
were confiscated and destroyed.
Physicians have frequently
cautioned consumers against
mixing food with these so-calle;..
cheap baking powders. Thay
are all found, when analysed,
to contain large percentages Of
alum and sulphuric acid to
which are added various sorts
of filling matter sometimes both
injurious and nasty.
The high class, cream Of
tarter baking powders, are the
most economical and wholesome
and should always be selected
for use. They will be found
cheaper in the end, besides
making the food better and
more healthful.

AS a comparison of Missouri
Valley now and twenty years
ago VIM. Neufnd, one of the
pioneer business men Of those
days, gives as an illustration Of
the growth and development of
the city in that time in the in
crease in the ice business in
which he has been engaged
since 1883 up to a few weeks
ago. When he first engaged in
the business one man had to
work only two Or three hours,
with a one horse dray to supply
the demand of a hot summer
day. The demand has grown
to such an extent as to require
the services of six men and
four teams during the summer
months and the last few years
from 400 to 1900 tons Of ice is
harvested each winter. The
same comparison of conditions
are equally true in every other
line of business. Councilman
Chas. Smith, of the Third ward,
now owns the plant.
