The highest authorities and most eminent scien tists in the world have after careful experiments of all kinds decided that the so-called alum baking powders are just as wholesome as any other baking powders. The Department of Agriculture, which is the Pure Food Department of the United States, have made careful investigations and experi ments, and find no reason to even question their sale. They, too, came to the conclusion that such powders are just as wholesome as other baking powders. So-called alum baking powders are sold In every State in the Union. If they were not pure and wholesome, certainly the food commissioner, would not permit their sale. The Food Commissioner of each State is not permitting to be sold anything that is unwholesome. So-called alum baking powders have been brought to their atten tion for years, with the same results they are pt;re snd wholesome. It is important that everyone should know that in the baking they do not eat baking powder. Baking powder, during the pro cess of baking, undergoes chemical change; therefore, in an alum baking powder you eat no alum, nor do you eat it any more than the cream of tartar in a cream of tartar baking powder; but the facts are that a small percentage of residue is left in the food from the use of so-called alum baking powders, which is not injurious, and from the use of Cream of Tartar powders, a large percentage of residue is left in the food, which is Rochelle Salts. The only one that has attempted to dis credit so-called alum baking powders or claim that they are unwholesome is the $30,000,000 Baking Powder TrotT that is striving to intimidate the public so that it can continue to get the exorbitant prices for its goods, and divert the public mind from the fact that its goods leave large quantities of Rochelle Salts in the food. Don't be misled by false, malicious, mis leading advertisements. Remember so called alum baking powders would not be allowed to be sold if they were not perfectly wholesome; also remember that 85 of the baking powders consumed in the 'United States axe so-called alum baking powders.
