The food law does not force consum

themselves. All good housekeepers
want cream of tartar baking powders,
and will not use alum substitutes in
the food, if they know it. AS the in

the label, all may know the facts.
Good baking powder is one of the
most useful things in the kitchen; It
is easily obtained at any store; the
better it is, the more economical it is
in cooking materials, and the more it
conserves the health of the family.
