BAKERIES AMONG
BEST IN SOUTH
High Standards Have Been
Set in Last Few Years.
Local Plants

Birmingham bakeries turn out enough
of the staff of life" daily to supply
every man, woman and child in the city
with q loaf or more of bread. Not all
of the bread made in Birmingham is for
local consumption. This city is now
regarded as one of the principal supply
depots for foodstouffs in the south, and
not only do many small places through
out Alabama depend upon the city for
its. bread supply. but a large portion
is shipped to other states
Bread baking has been reduced to q
science within the past few years, and
the Birmingham bakeries are Just as
up-to-dat as any in the country. With
in tho past few years some very fine
plants have been erected here. and they
are responsible for the excellent condi-
tions which surround the business To-
cally.
Sanitation and cleanliness enter more
Into the manufacture of bread than. any
other one thing, and in this regard the
local shops are well nigh perfect. The
different bakers are members of the
National Association of Master Bakers
of America. This association has re-
Gently adopted the following sanitary
standards, all of which are observed
here:
"First-Building well lighted In every

race fer candy novelties the output of
the factories Is astonishing both in
variety and quantity.
The humble candy marble that the
average child can. suck upon with joy
all day is turned out at great pace by
the factories for that old standby is
still popular with kids as Ii probably
always will lie. But in its evolution the
candy making business has gone far
beyond the point ever dreamed of when
the marbles were first made. Today
each factory devotes whole departments
to the connection of richer favorings
or Aavorings that have never been
made. IN ombination before Another
department does nothing but discover
new shapes for rthe confections set
forth. until it has come to pass that
some of the dollar candy sent out of
the factories here seems actually to be
a work of art in sugar. chocolate,
cherries and even imitation flowers.
In recent years the making OF candy
has assumed also another phase. Not
only must the product be as rich and
attractive as possible. but it must be
absolutely pure. How to color some
Of the most popular brands without
using the coloring matter that was said
to The dangerous to health became a
problem with tlre candy manufacturers
as weighty as is the matter of tools

to a carpenter. Finally the vegetable
coloring was developed and it was
brought TO such perfection that the
juices of fruits are now used to put
every hue of the rainbow desired into
CONNECTION without the use of drop of
drug or dope" Out of that has
come the pure food candy stage which
has made tremendous strides for the
manufacturers. They say that as re-
suit of the pure candy era more people
eat more candy than ever before and
are willing to pay better prices for the
highest grades.
Another evolution of candy making
lies In the great increase in novelties
placed upon the market. For instance,
IL you take the trouble to look into
any retail candy store in Birmingham
at holiday time you Will find its cases
cleaning with candy forms appropriate
Is particularly true of Christmas. Eas-
ter, with its lilies and it's candy eggs,
the Fourth of July with Its flags done
! in sugared red, white and blue, and St
Patrick's day, which always brings
forth great burst of green candy and
candy harps.
There Is always an especially large
call for these holiday candies and as
the profit in their sale is particularly
good the manufacturers employ design

"Ninth-A health certificate, showing

"Tenth-Employes of bakeries to be

forms of s"hot bread" are supposed to
be popular. the people Of this section
are extremely fond of good bakers s
bread and to supply the demand more
than 300 barrels of flour are used daily
at the different shops Besides this
enormous amount of flour there Is q
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-06-18

great deal of yeast, lard. malt, sugar,
salt and milk used in the making.
Several hundred persons are EN-
ployed in the different shops and a
thousand or more persons are depen-
dent on the bakeries for their liveli-
hood. All in all. it is one of the most
important trades in the city.
Modern Machinery
Modern machinery plays large part
In nearly every bakery In the city
Electric power is used in the mixing of
the dough. while other machines are
cutting the dough in uniform loaves
and the latter are nodded into the prop
er forms by still other machines In the
large establishments the flour is sifted
through silk sieves. operated by cleo
tricity. 1t Is astonishing to see how
much raft Is separated from the flour
by this process. The flour storehouse
Is large room and care Is taken that
1t Is perfectly dry Minnesota and
other northwestern states, known as
wheat states. furnish much of the -four,
which Is bought in large quantities.
Flour and all the other ingredients
used in the making of bread are ac-
curately weighed in order that the cor
rect proportions are obtained. BY the
aid of machinery it is possible to Sc
cure loaves of uniform size and weight
and make them appear attractive. The
large bakeries have as many as dozen
big bake ovens. each one of which can
bake 500 loaves every 20 minutes. Coke
Is used in producing the heat in these
ovens, although gas is being expert
mented with in some places The ovens
are lighted by electricity and a pyro-
meter indicates the heat of each oven
Between 450 and 500 dagrees are con-
sidered necessary for the proper baking
of bread and the ovens are constructed
In such way that they retain the heat
for long time.
How Repairs Are Made
When repairs become necessary it
takes days to cool off the ovens, even
after the fire under them has been ex-
tinguished. The fact that 1t is hard
to cool the ovens is given as one OF
the reasons by some bakers for cling
ing to the old-time method of heating
the ovens with wood Even when wood
Is used 1t takes q day to cool an oven
sufficiently to permit workmen to en-
ter them and make the repairs which
have become necessary. While a GER
tain amount of heat is necessary to
bake bread the heat must be regulated
for the baking Of cakes which form q
part Of the bakery trade. There is
one wholesale bakery In the city which
Is completing large building that is
to be used for baking of cakes exclu-
sively.
The delivery Of bread and cakes to
the groceries and private residences is
an important factor in the business.
Dozens of wagons are used by the large
bakeries and almost every baker in Bir-
mingham has one or more wagons in
order that its customers may be served
promptly. When bread Is sent by rail-
road care Is taken that 1t Is wrapped
securely so that dust is kept away
from it and 1t reaches its destination in
good shape.
Certain kinds of bread are made by
bakers who establish trade for 1t and
frequently a person living In one part
Of the city will use the product OF a
bakery which Is far removed from his
residence.

BIC BUSINESS Of
CANDY FACTORIES
Anything From "All Day
Sucker" to Bon BOns
Turned OOut

Candy making in birmingham has
come to be not only one of the most
toothsome but one of the most extensive
of the businesses which deal in the lux
iuries of life.
The various candy factories in the
city make candy that sells anywhere
frcAl few cents a pound in bulk to
the expensive1y favored, richly packed
chocolates that miladya loves to munich

employed constantly in finding out new
creations and new shapes and styles
of confection that will touch the popu
lar sweet tooth and increase the ouput
of the factories and as a result of the
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-06-18

ers to create new molds so that the
variety will never fall off.
The output of the candy manufac-
tories in Birmingham is sufficiently at
tested by the beautiful displays of the
home product in the windows of the
up-to-date confection shops. But be-
side this local trade a great outside
business has been built ltp SO that many
tons of the Birmingham product are
shipped, some in bulk and some in
packages, to cities In all parts of the
south.
