The Royal Baking Powder Company has resorted to so many tricks to force its way upon the public, that whenever any cry of fraud is raised the public instinctively turns to the Royal Baking Powder Company. Is it any wonder ? The Royal has recently printed a statement purporting to be an interview with Dr. Benjamin F. Drew, state chemist and analyst to the Food and Dairy Commission of Minnesota, to the effect that the Royal Baking Powder is all which the company asserts it to be. The statement is made that Dr. Benjamin F. Drew, state chemist and analyst to the Food and Dairy Commission, made the representations referred to be fore the legislative committee at tho last session, which ex amined various baking powders. WHAT IS THE TRUTH? 1st. There is no such person as Dr. Benjamin F. Drew, state chemist and analyst to the Food and Dairy Commission of Minnesota. 2d. There is a Dr. Charles W. Drew, who is state chem ist and analyst to the said commission. 3d. He denies the statement in question of the Royal Baking Powder Company, generally, as follows: 1st. The statements in no sense represent his attitude or his utterance. 2d. There has never been, either in the published re ports of the chemist of the commission, in his testimony before the legislative committee or elsewhere, any implied endorsement of the Royal Baking Powder as superior to other brands. 3d. At the session of the legislative committee before which Dr. Drew testified, an attempt was made by the attor ney of the Royal Company to secure the statements which the Royal Company has since printed, which attempt failed. 4th. On the contrary, Dr. Drew did say there were suffi cient grounds for objection to the presence of ammonia in baking powders to justify the legislative committee in recom mending that all such powders be required to announce upon their labels the fact that Ammonia was one of the constitu ents; and Dr. Drew further expressed to tho committee the following emphatic opinion: "I would not recommend such powders to my patients, nor would I use them in my own family." mm The Price Baking Powder Company makes a Pure Cream Tartar Baking Powder, free from ammonia, alum, lime or any taint of impurity, and feels it owes a duty to the public as well as to itself to lay bare such trickery as the Royal resorts to in trying to wheedle the consumer into using its Ammonia Powder.
