Practical Economy Baking powders made from alum or phosphate may be bought for a trifle less than Royal Baking Powder, which is made from cream of tartar, derived from grapes. Alum powders are not only cheap, but they differ greatly in leavening power. If a cheap baking powder is used for a fine cake and the cake turns out a failure there is a waste of costly materials worth more than a whole can of the cheap bak ing powder. Royal Baking Powder produces the finest food, and its use therefore, results in an actual saving. v ROYAL BALING POWDER CO. New ' fork THE FARMER. The farmer is the man who feeds us all.

F. Wible. Whereas, Our all-wise Father has called to that Grand Beyond a true and faithful member of our church, Mrs. B. F. Wible who departed this life November 13, 1916; and Whereas, We have thus been parted until we meet her in that Great Beyond, we think it be fitting that we express our deep sense of loss, and that our loss is her gain. She has completed her work here, being a kind and faithful wife and mother, an ex cellent Christian all her life. She has gone to receive her re ward of "Well done" from the Master: and Whereas, our belov ed and respected sister has been called home, therefore be it Resolved, That we hereby express our Bincere sympathy to the husband and childreh and commend them to Him, who alone can comfort; and, therefore, be it further Resolved, That these resolu tions be published.
