The fire department was summoned
Friday evening to the factory building
of the Oskaloosa Saddleny company
corner First avenue and c street
Smoke was discovered coming out OF
the windows in great quantities and
at the same time it was curling up
from the roof and gave the appearance
that the entire building was on fire,
The fire company was on hand on
short notice. The front entrance was
forced and the, firemen were soon In
all pafts OF the building. Much
smoke was encountered as the men
entered and they we're sure that they
had hard job bfore them, The
smoke was caused by refusebemg
burned in special furnace made for
the purpose OF disposlng of the fac,
tory wastes. The furnace, or the
chimney had become clogged OF
choaked in some way and the smoke
was thrown back into the building in.
stead of out through the chimney.
The unusual odor OF the smoke was
that OF burning straw and waste bits
OF leather and even the firemen were
fooled into balievingythat bad fire
had started.' ftteia roo N

The matter has been IN controversy
several weeks and the train was with.
drawn following resumption Of work
after the suspension Of mining in
April. The service was re-establish-
ed pending the settlement of the con.
tract, but the rumor has been rife

Avoid the Cheap and big Can"
Baking Powders.

The cheap baking powders have
but one recommendation; they GER
tainly give the purchaser plenty of
powder for his money, but it's not
all baking powder; the bulk is
made up of cheap materials that
have no leavening power. These
powders are so carelessly made from
inferior materials that they will not
make light, wholesome food. Furth-
err, these cheap baking powders have
very small percentage of leavening
gas; therefore it takes from two to
three times as much of such powder
to raise the cake or biscuit as it
does of Calumet Baking Powder.
Therefore, in the long run, the ac-
tual cost to the consumer of the
cheap powders is more than Calumet
would be. Cheap baking powders
leave the bread sometimes bleached
and acid, sometimes yellow and aka
line, and often unpalatable. They
are never of uniform strength and
quality.
Why not buy a perfectly whole
some baking powder like Calumet,
that is at the same time moderate in
price and one which can be relied
upon? Calumet is always the same,
keeps indefinitely and gives the cook
the least trouble.
