A flat and soggy loaf or biscuit is an unleavened food. So it is that leaven ing agents such as yeast or baking powder are employed. To insure to the American housewife complete leavening of her biscuits, cakes, muffins, etc., which is so impor tant to perfect digestion, the pure food authorities found it wise to require a cer tain standard of leavening strength in baking powder. To maintain this guaranty of digestibility— to insure minimum deterioration of leaven ing strength, baking powder is packed in tin. This prevents absorption of atmospheric mois ture. Dampness produces premature reaction in the can—results in loss of leavening gas. The food official, would properly condemn bak ing powder if packed in cheap sacks. But what about self rising flour? It comes to the southern housewife from remote northern mills packed in porous bags. What happens to this mixture of baking materials and flour? , Chemical analysis shows that much of it has lost its leavening strength before it reaches the consumer. Breadstuffs made with such self-rising flours cannot rise properly—they come to the table heavy, flat, and soggy. Why don’t the pure food officials demand that self-rising flours contain 0.5% leavening gas, the equivalent to the 12% required of baking powder? Calumet Baking Powder is scientifically and legally cor rect—the last spoonful is as pure and sure as the first Packed in tin—keeps the strength in Central of Georgia, will give a five minute talk on the opportunities for developing the natural resources of Georgia and Alabama.

Cotton avenue in the new C. M. Council block of build ings. According to Bob himself, the opening of his “Happp Feed Store” here is of interest to people through out the whole community. The ihappy feed store idea was originated, he says by Joe Simon, of New 'Orleai b La., he being highly interested in the development of the poultry and dairy industry in the South, set about to see for him self just whajt feed was the best to obtain the best possible results. He visited a number of large mills throughout the countrp says Bob, and saw their methods of man ufacturing and inspected the raw products that went in their feeds. As a result of his investigation he went bask to New Orleans and opened the first exclusive happy feed store, Bob states and sin re that time the happy idea has spread until there are over two thousand happy feed stores throughout the United States. The happy feed merchant is noi j satisfied by merely selling you a sack of feed and letting it go at that, saps Bob. It is his policy to co-operate with you and see that you get the best possible results for your money. Edgar-Morgan, Co. of Memphis Term, makers of happy feeds, main tain a poultry and dairy extension department with experts in charge to help |the poultry and dairy own ers with their problems. This ser vice is free and everyone are ir» vited to write them for any infor mation you may desire, with the assurance that your inquiry will receive prompt, courteous and ex pert attenton. Bob says his policy is “to buy direct from the mill it carload lots for cash thereby getting the best possible price, doing the work him self, eliminating a heavy overhead expense, selling for cash and pass ing the saving on to his customer.’ The happy feed store will do much toward the developmert of the poultry and dairy interest here, as it enables the small buyer to pui chase his feeds on the same basis as the large buyer, it is declared.
