Not only this, it makes the food lighter, sweeter, finer-flavored, more delicious It is worth while to exercise care in pur chasing baking powder to see that you get the kind that makes the food more whole some and at the same time more palatable Note.

The fact that many people who pay water tax are de prived of water for drinking and cooking purposes is not the only hardship of the -situation. The fire clay works are now running only half-time and one of the homes of the city came sear being reduced to ashes a few nights ago because of this same lack of water. Whoever ia responsible for this apparently inexcusable state of affairs ought to be held strictly to account. The county commissioners, who were in session the first of the week, did a wise thing in accept ing the road just completed from Escondida to Lemitarcita by the efforts and contributions of John. Greenwald and other citizens of Socorro and vicinity,- The corn missioners did no less wisely in. appropriating Í100 for the ira- provement of tle road from So corro to Escondida. The com mitted appointed to inspect and report upon the condition of the ro4 consisted of A. D. Coon, Eduardo Stapleton, and Eduardo Torres. These gentlemen re ported the road in a good and passable condition and recom mended its acceptance by the. county.
