Which Do You Prefer?

1t is important for reasons of health and
practical economy for every housekeeper
to ask herself this question:
Do prefer pure baking powder like
Royal, made of cream of tartar derived from
grapes, or am / willing to use a baking
powder made of alum or phosphate, both
derived from mineral Sources?"
The names of the ingredients printed
on the label show whether the kind you
are now using or any brand, nerp or old,
that may be offered is genuine cream
of tartar powder, or merely a phosphate
or alum compound.
Royal Baking Powder contains no alum
nor phosphate.

The active deliveries showed losses
of Is to IS points after a session OF
heavy trading and wide fluctuations
The Liverpool market developed
strength after q lower opening, and
at one time was about IA points higher,
but initial upturns in the local market
were only - to Is points, as the ue
mand from Wall Street spectators anu
Liverpool traders was fairly wei sup,
piled by the overnight accumulation o%
liquidating orders.
There was also a marked increase IN
hedge selling for Southern account
The heaviest offerings, however, repre-
sented realizing sales by prominent
SPOT and commission houses. No DOUBT
this latter was based partly on larger
spot purchases in the South on lower
basis. This was in keeping with pri-
yate advices of an easier tone IN Ar
kansas, Mississippi and Texas, and tas
official quotations showing ceclines Oh
Sake at some places.
To some extent selling was prompted
by claims that a material increase
would soon be announced in marine IN
surance rates, which naturally sug-
gested some curtailment in the export
movement. Doubtless uneaslness on
this score had much to do with the
greater Willingness among Southern
holders to sell. According to some OBJ
servers certain Of the ring crowd dis
played considerable aggressiveness on
the selling side, believing that the mar
ket was weak technically, and as re.
suit prices suffered setback OF about
55 points, or nearly So bale.
Although support was not aggressive,
at the start, the absorption was good

Of Tuesday. As the decline progressed
more vigorous support appeared.
One Of the large Western bulls was
on the floor and bought about 10000
bales. while wire houses also had large
Western orders, mainly for March, at
2O.TO or under, and one house took
fully 10000 bales. These large pur-.
chases left the market almost bare OF
offerings. and the local crowd soon
found that the selling had been over
done. Hence, they became somewhat
alarmed. and their efforts to cover
caused a sharp recovery OF 30 to 80
points.
