    A Distinctive Reason
What is the chief reason for the superi
ority of Royal Baking Powder ?
There are several good reasons, but there
is one which distinguishes Royal from other
baking powders.
This reason, which every woman should
know, is that Royal Baking Powder is made
from cream of tartar, which comes from
grapes. This means a healthful fruit origin.
It means natural food as distinguished from
mineral substitutes used in other baking
powders.
There is no alum nor phosphate in Royal
Baking Powder.

Pittsburgh Hog Market
Breaks, but Hotels Advance
Price of Bread and Butter
Pittsburgh, Oct. 4.—The first impor
tant break for more than a year in the
steadily rising market for meat in the
Pittsburgh district was forecast to-day
when hogs were quoted at Herr's
Island stockyards 70 cents per hundred
lower than yesterday, with highest price
at $9.50. Heavy receipts and falling
off in demand were given by brokers
the cause of the slumr-
Any saving which might be effected
from this cause, however, was bal
anced by the announcement of leading
hotel managers that 10 cents would
be added to all checks for meals to
cover the cost of bread and butter.
One manager declared these items cost
him approximately SIOO a day, and
he could not afford it. The rule be
comes operative next Monday.
BRAND "GROWN IN
PENNSYLVANIA"
This Is What the Farmers
Should Raise and the House
keepers Should Buy
"Grown in Pennsylvania" is the new
brand which officials of the State De
partment of Agriculture are urging
Keystone Slate farmers and fruit rais
ers to place upon the market, and
judging from what is stated in a bulle
tin from the department to-day J. Al
dus llerr and E. B. Dorsett, "who are
helping Pennsylvania farmers and fruit
growers to find ready and profitable
markets for their products, have met
with hearty co-operation from both
the producers and the commission men
in many sections of the state."
6,155 TREES IN THE
UPPER HALF OF CITY
[Continued From First Page]
shows the lack of years of proper at
tention.
Need More Money
With an appropriation sufficiently
large to carry on the tree maintenance
and development work, backed by a
competent- shade tree commission to
conduct the necessary legislative work,
municipal circles generally figure that
City Forester Gipple could give the
trees all the attention required.
| Of all the variety of trees that were
counted, according to City Forester
Uipple few of them were of the proper
species, most of them showed the re-
I suits of poor trimming, butchering,
I lack of pruning, disregard of relative
distances for planting, absence of
I guards to prevent the ruining of the
I trees by gnawing horses.
Few Good Trees
Here and there there are some rare
old trees although Forester Glpple
advises that the choice for planting
should be selected from any of these
families—(Norway, silver and sugar
maples, oriental planes, pin and red
oak, American elms and European
lindens.
Elms however, arc advised only for
the broader streets and boulevards,
principally Front and State streets.
Tussock and other moths do irre
parable damage among the trees and
this could be minimized in the
opinion of Mr. Gipple, by instituting
a city-wide campaign against the
caterpillars, even in the cocoon stage.
The co-operation of the city school
children, the Civic Club or kindred
organization could well be obtained in
this fight.
Good Results on Little Funds
Lack of money has brought the
tree work almost to a standstill now
as there is no longer any money to
pay for assistance and the work that
has been done, had to be paid for out
of the regular maintenance fund of
the park department. With the ex
ception of his salary of SI,OOO Mr.
Gipple has had no appropriation for
his department.
"City Forester Mueller asked for an
appropriation of $27,000 and he could
have used every cent of it," said For
ester Gipple. "However, I should be
tickled to death if I got, say three or
four or five thousand. I'd Just like
to have enough money to pick out an
average section of the city and show
to Council and the people what can
be done in the way of properly caring
for the trees."
Passing of Park Trees
While the trees on the streets, gen
erally speaking, are in poor shape, the
park trees are positively in a had way.
"Unless our river park is given at
tention, the trees there will be ab
solutely no good twenty years from
now," declared the forester. "We
should plant trees now, and we could
use fifty or seventy-five of them very
easily to replenish the groves."
Notwithstanding his lack of funds
the forestry department accomplished
mighty good work this summer for in
addition to his other duties Mr. Gipple
had to give much of his attention to
the island nursery. More than 200
permits for new trees were issued and
In each instance, personal investiga
tion of the site was made; more than
a hundred complaints for tree trim
ming, pruning, etc., required the
forester's personal supervision.
The Caterpillar War
While spraying is necessary to pro
long the life of the trees, Mr. Gipple
believes as much good can be accom
plished—at least so far as the cater
pillars are concerned-—by waging a
decided war against these pests. By
offering small cash prizes to the school
children and paying for egg-masses
and coccoons by a method similar to
that adopted by the Civic Club in the
fly-swatting campaigns, the forester
believes admirable results may be ob
tained.
