Practical Economy

Baking powders made from alum or
phosphate may be bought for trif1e less
than ROYAL Baking Powder, which is made
from cream of tartar, derived from grapes.
Alum powders are not only cheap, but
they differ greatly in 1eavening power.
If a cheap baking powder is used for
fine cake and the cake turns out failure
there is a waste of costly materials worth
more than a whole can of the cheap bak
ing powder.
Royal Baking Powder produces the
finest food, and its use therefore, results In
an actual saving.

I. @. ENGINEERS HERE TO
NOTE FLOOD CONDITIONS.

Mr.. Hoar, OF the civil engi-
neering corps of the Illinois Cen
trail railroad, was here Friday
looking over the G. M. & G.. Ry.
property, which was hard hit by
the recent overflow in West
Hickman, with a view to report
ing TO his company concerning
the extent of which they should
cooperate in building a city
levee. Our information is that
he would not recommend contri-
buting as much as $1,000, which
was thought by Pres. Peyton, Of
the N. c. & st. l.. Ry., rs being
an equitable portion for the /.
c. His opinion that the total
cost of the levee, estimated at
$40, 100, was too high, but condi-
tiOns prevented him from getting
such information as would en-
enable him 10 arrive at anything
like correct figures. 1t is the
concensus of opinion that the l.
G. will, however, he willing to
contribute any reasonable amount
TO prevent a repetition of this
years disaster.

b. G.. Hale, Sr., has purchased
the property known as the Nc

We note with pleasure y that
insurance rates in certain local ter
ritory have quietly advanced from
Sl.6S to 1920. No additional
hazards-no excuse-just simply
a little gouge. The State Board
is blamed, but We have failed TO
hear of the companies trying TO
cnjoin the board. There is
something radically wrong with
the insurance business in Ken
lucky, We pay practically twice
the rate charged in most States,
but we doubt seriously that Ken
lucky has twice as many fires as
other States. Hickman stands for
a heavy rate-Ibecause our fire
protection is inadequate. We
shall note carefully the revision
of rates after our new fire en-
CINE is installed. Our business
men have spent a wad of money
during the past two years re-wlr-
ing for electricity 30 protect the
insurance companies, primarily
and still the rates-well, what S

The local relief committee "sat
up and took notice" last week
when it resolved two bills for
bread from the Martin Bakery,
which has been supplying breal
for refugees. one bill for $ll and
another for ST; whereas, the
committee was under the impress
sion the bread was being given
gratis. The matter was taken up
with J. T. Perkins, who origi-
nally suggested the shipment OF
bread in this case, and he in
I formed the committee that there
was no charge TO be made against
the committee for bread, but that
I Martin citizens were bearing the
expense. Ii. l.. Amberg, had a
ready paid the $ll account before
the facts We're ascertained.

KILLED AFTER FALL

carrier, is mourning the loss of his
horse, which had to be shot Saturday
afternoon following injuries it receiv-
ed when it fell into hole and injured
its spine.
Mr.. Sexton had used the animal for
years and it knew the route" almost
as well as its master On Saturday
he had driven the horse to Fourteenth
avenue and First street. and as was
his custom he allowed it to Craze
while he covered the district just be-
yond the railroad tracks When Mr.
Sexton returned he was sorry to find
that the animal had stepped in hole
and so injured itself that it was de-
cided to kill it to put it out Of its mis-
cry, but this course was not deter
mined upon until men had worked
two hours in vain to get the horse on
its feet.
