Il dsOOd Result,

Under the operation of the new Pure
Food Laws, baking powders now gener.
ally bear on the labels statement of the
ingredients. This is OF utmost impor.
tance because of the harmful ingredients
used in many cases.
Royal Baking Powder is known to he
the only baking powder made of Rova,
Grape Cream of Tartar, and this no
doubt explains its greatly increased sale
here.
Careful housekeepers are taking ad-
vantage of the protection which tn e
Laws afford, and are examining all the
reading matter on the back of the label
before adopting any brand for use in the
home.
When in place of the words Cream n,
Tartar the words "alum" aluminium"
or phosphate of lime" appear among
the ingredients, they heed the warning
and avoid baking powders containing
these substitutes.

Attractions This Year Will be
Greater Than Ever.

The Greater Oregon State Fail
to be held in Salem, September II
to 81 inclusive, will be zone of the
biggest things that ever happened
to the Northwest" to use one en-
thusiast's expression.
Perhaps the people in general
and especially those who have been
regular yearly visitors at the fair,
and who have noted the growth of
this pioneer factor in the states
development, are most interested d
in the improvements and facilities
for increased usefulness which
have been added this year.
The clang Of the hammer has
been heard for many months at the
fair grounds. Under the magic
sway of an army Of workmen, old,
shacks and barren wastes
have vanished, and in their place
new and slightly buildings have
arisen, and green lawns and gar
dens have appeared, as if by an
enchanter's touch.
The attractions will be greater
than ever before this season.
