Do not use them for raising food under any circumstances. So detrimental are alum baking powders considered, that in most foreign countries their sale is prohibited. In many States in this country the law compels alum powders to be branded to show*that they contain this dangerous acid, while in the District, of Columbia, Congress has prohibited the sale of all food that contains alum. Alum baking powders are sold to consumers at from io cents a pound to 25 ounces for 25 cents, or 25 cents a pound, and when not branded may generally be distinguished by their price.
