The World's Tribute to Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder Highest Honors Awarded by theWorld’s Columbian Exposition, Chicago, 1S93.
World’s Fair Medal and Diploma awarded to Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder The highest award was given on every claim, comprising superiority in leavening power, keeping properties, purity and excellence. This verdict has been given by the best jury ever assembled for such a purpose, hacked by the recommendation of the Chief Chemist of the United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D. C., who made an elaborate examination and test of all the baking powdci’S. This is pre-eminently the highest authority on such matters in America This verdict conclusively settles the question and proves that Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder is superior in every way to auy other brand. Note.—The Chief Chemist rejected the Alum bakinjr powders, stating to the World’s Fair jury that he cousidered them unwholesome.
