! est Baking Powder Fao-
1 ' Tories In World
i -
I When ,W. M. Wriffht founded
j the Calumet Making Powder Co.
in the spring of 188!, he remeii
one liltle room on the top floor
of u small three story building,
that still stands in Chicago, on
North State htreet, just at the
north end of the bridge over the
Chicago Hiver.
This little room was Office and
Factory.. Mr. Wright himself
was manufacturer, Oflice Mana
ger and Salesman.
His total manufacturing equip
ment consisted of a hand mixer,
with an extremely small stock of
uppiies. This was all hidden be
hind calico curtains that stretched
across the room. An empty
str.rch barrel with a board across
the top, served as a desk.
Salesman Wright worked on
the outside getting 'orders that
came in and turned them over
to Oflice Manager Wright, and
then had Manufacturer Wright
roll up his sleeves and make
enough baking powder to take
care of Salesman Wright's orders.
lU'it behind the courage and
ambition that gave life to these
early efforts, was a flaming pur
pore to make a better baking
powder; to treat the retail deal
er as a business partner, and to
protect the consumer from an in
ferior product.
The reward to such a business
crusade has been phenomenal.
Today the Calumet Baking Pow
der Co. has the largest baking
powder factories in the world
and its sales have grown to be
1k as much as those of any
other brand.
The Company's home plant in
. Chicago, built in 1914, has a total
floor space of 160,000 square feet,
400 times the amountvof floor
.space provided hy the little State
i Street store room where Calumet
firxt heralded its slogan; "Best
by Test." This home of Calumet
U the largest, best equipped and
most sanitary plant of its kind
in the world.
Karly in 1920 the demand of
Calumet bad outgrown the Chi
cago Plant, and plant No. 2 was
located in East St. Louis, 111.
This increased the Company's
production about 40 per cent and
put Calumet in close reach of the
Southern States, where it plays
such an important part in baking
the famous hot breads of the
South,

During 1920 Calumet had dif
ficulty in obtaining sufficient ma
terials of the high grade required.
To safeguard against any pos
sibility of inferior materials en
tering Into the manufacture of
Calumet, the Company at a cost
of $1,000,000 purchased an im-
mense material plant at Joliet,
111., covering six acres, with 43
individual buildings and a total
space of more then 1,000,000 feet.
This plant guarantees Calumet's
ability to back up the Calumet
slogan: "pure in the can pure
in the baking."
It is a far cry from the little
20 foot room in which W. M.
Wright incubated the Calumet
Baking Powder Co. to the Com
pany's present mammoth quar
ters the largest baking powder
factories in the world. But Mr.
Wright himself, now Chairman
of the Board of Directors, refuses
to admit there has been anything
wonderful in this growth. '"Only
one thing has brought this all to
pass," he says, "and that is I
had from the beginning the un
surpassable quality of Calumet '
Baking Towder."

covered Its stability and, in the word:
I of a Department of Interior ane-
iiwuiii-viiicmi, in lining wine iiiun- v.,"
an even keel "like a ship righting
herself after' a terrible gale."
The forecast of smooth sailing
ahead is! based on the report of the
collector of customs at Juneau, ju-st
received in 'Washington.
"The year closed witli an increase
in the commerce of the territory
over 1921 of $20,780,401 and with a
healthy growth in practically all the
industries," says the statement issued
from the department of Secretary
Work. "Exports from the territory
of Alaska more than doubled the
imports, leaving the balance in trade
in Alaska's favor by a handsome
margin.
"Tne outstanding increase in value
of shipments to the United States is
shown in canned salmon, both as to
the number of pounds and value, i
This was due to the revival of the
salmon canning industry, as well as
a more nearly normal run of salmon
in Alaska. An increase also worthy
of note, because of its -rapid growth,
is that of pickled fish represented
primaritf bf the herring industry.
A number of large herring salte;-ies
were installed during 1022 in south
west Alaska and these were kept run
ning until late in the fall to meet
the demands for this sea food.
"In spito of serious gold mining
reverses during the past few years,
the mineral output of the territory
for 1922'..'as approximately $18,000,
000, or an increase over 15121 of more
than $1,000,000. This increase was
due primarily to a larger output of
copper, yet it reflects in some meas
ure the improvement of the entire
mineral industry. Pre-war figures
can he considered only in comparisons
and for the five years ended in lftl4
the average annual value of Alaska's
mineral output was $19,700,000. So.
compared in values, Alaska's mineral
output in 1920 is most encouraging
for a revival of this industry.
"The canned clam industry, which
was somewhat dormant during .'-0 J
21. took on new life in 12. ' ,
outlook for a larger pack in
,;ood. With , shipments aggregJt...
$144,171, the shrimp mc'usliy isj

"the shipn.ant of sawed lumber
from Alaska to the UmUi i t e,
and also for export to. foivign coun
tries, is most gratifying unni
lll2 lumber was loaded direct o.i
vessels for export trade. A numhe.
of mills arc reported to be under,
contract for sinfflar shipment.;, dm tug

"The possibility of increased oil.
development in Alaska was
promising at the cloe of 922. J he
oil wells of the Katalla fields ppudur-.
ed steadily during 1922 and then,
refined products found ready may.ei-;
within the territory. Production Ironii

reached the expoiting stage. A ne.vj
oil field is now under oPveluPmc-au
in the Cold Hay district.
"The travel movement, as Miowiii
in the statcinei.t of arrivals and de-
,li-l,wps nlcasinir increase!
in travel' to Alaska from the Stales.
Whiie the departures from Alaska
are in excess of the arlivals, it is
not believed that this indicates any
falling off in population, but rathe:
is due to the tact thai the residents
of the interior are taking advantage
of the cheaper transportation ollered
by the Alaska Railroad to spend
part of tho winter in the States.

IF SKIN BREAKS
OUT AND ITCHES
APPLY SULPHUR
Just the moment you apply Mcmho
Sulphur to an itch i up, burning or
broken out skin, the itdiing stops and
healing begins, says a noted skin spe
cialist. This sulphur preparation, made
into a pleasant cold cream, gives such
a quick relief, even to fiery eczema,
that nothing has ever been found to
take its place.
Because of its germ-destroying prop
erties, it quickly subdues the itching,
cools the irritation and heals the eczema
right up, leaving a clear, smooth skin
in place of ugly eruptions, rash, pim-
pies or roughness.
You (In not have to- wait for improve
ment. It quickly shows. You can get
a little jar of Rowlcs Menlho-Sulphur
at any drug store.
