ALL W4IT ON BORDEN.
MIL Dealers SAID to Fear to
Raise Prices First.

Several witnesses at yesterdays session
of the inquiry instituted by Attorney Cen
eral O. Malley to determine the existence OF
a milk trust testified that Borden's prices
had great influence upon the prices PAID
by other dealers. Officials OF the Mutual
Milk and Cream Company denied, however,
that thew had consulted with Borden or
with any other dealer before raising the
price Of milk to 9 cents. or when they re-
stored the Scent price.
John B. Coleman, Special Deputy At
torney General, wanted TO know from
stephen c. Millett, of Irvington-on-the-
Hudson director of the Mutual company
if more money had not been made in 1909
under the 9-cent price than during the
prevtous year Referee Brown overruled
tbe objection OF counsel for the company.
and Mr. MilIett replied that the company
had made more real money. He said
that the price had been reduced because
competitors were selling for cents and
the Mutual was losing business.
Mr. Milett made way for James j. kava-
naugh. who had worked his way up from
a driver 10 president of the Mutual which
is capitalized at s1,250,0F1 and owns thirty
five creameries. The latter said that Bor-
denis prices controlled the prices paid BY
his company at about one-half the cream
cries Al only a few, he said, does the
Mutual pay independent prices. the prices
fixed by the exchange prevailing.
why did your company pay an assess
rnent of $500 to the MIX Dealers Protec-
tive Associations" asked Mr.. Coleman.
II believe they wanted z fund in the
treasury to fight the L per cent solids
law replied Mr.. Kavanaush, after saying
that the amount paid was $500.
John s. Paul, vice-president and cashier
of the De Laval Separator Company, said
that all the dealers we're afraid to raise

HOMEMADE BAKING POWDER.
Economy in 1t as Well as Other
Advantages.

Since economy is the watchword,' said
the domestic science expert. Il wonder why
more women don't try 70 econOmize by
making their own aking powder. II is very
little trouble and when YOU make it your
self YOU know that your baking powder is
pure.
Baking powder is nothing more than the
combination of an acid and an alhali-in
the form of cream OF tartar and bIcaroon-
ate Of soda-in such proportions that they
exactly neutralize eaCh other. 4 third SUD-
stance is used which is technically called
a filler. When the cream Of tartar and soda
making up the baking powder come IN con
tact with moisture the chemical reaction
characteristic of these substances takes
place and the gas which makes our batters
and doughs light is set free The purpose
of the filler is to absorb any slight amount
of moisture that might otherwise come in
contact with the baking powder. thus pro-
tecting it and preserving its good qualities
The iiIier most commonly used Is starch:
more expensive one is Iactose-
To insure purity of materials. the cream
of tartar and bicarbOnate OF soda should
be bought at the drug store. They should
be bought loose, not in packages, because
of the greater cost of materials put up IN
packages Allow nine ounces of cream Of
tartar to four ounces OF bicarbonate OF
soda and three ounces of cornstarch or lac
tose Weigh these materials accurately,
blend thoroughly by sitting together five or
six times and keep the mixture in alright
cans jars
Because baking powder deteriorates
readily when exposed TO moisture, it is best
not to make more than one pound at
time, and to avoid deterioration this guam
tity should be divided and put into two
half-pound cans keeping the not in
use sealed. II these conditions are OBJ
served. baking powder made from the
recipe given above will give complete sat
iSfactiOn, not only to the resulting prod
uct, but also in the saving in money"
