Cri?m Baking Powder
Each time the United States Government
has officially tested the baking powders
the report has shown Dr. Price's Cream
Baking Powder to be of superlative
leavening strength, free from alum, abso-
lutely pure and wholesome.
This is gratifying, for Dr. Price's Cream
Baking Powder is depended upon by mil-
lions of people to raise their daily bread.
Prick. Baking Powder Co,
Chicago.
Note.—These Government inquiries also
developed the fact that there are many
mixtures upon the market made in imi-
tation of baking powder, but containing
alum or other caustic acid, whose use in
food is dangerous.

Now is the time to prepare your^land for a big conrcrop. Never
before has the markets been so bare of feed stuffs, and it certainly
will be the farmer's intcrests to plant a large corn crop. If yon
want to naafoe plenty of corn plant it right, and to do this yon need a
Cnton Check Ron Planter.
We bave tooth the IDtsc and Runner Planters, whieh plants both
cotton and corn., chedking them both ways. It will pay you to see
those planters before you arrange to plant your crop. The New
Disc Piaster is the latest machine out and will plant in trash as well
as in clean land; wori*t drag out a big furrow, and the wheels won't
pick up your corn. Come and see our new Planters, Cultivators,
etc. Tbey are beauties and no mistake.
