DR. PRICE'S
PHOSPHATE
BAKING POWDER
is made in the same factory in which
Dr. Price's Baking Powder containing
cream of tartar has been made
for nearly seventy years, and embodies
all the skill, scientific knowl~
edge and great care used therein.
It perfectly leavens the food and
never leaves a bitter taste even if
you should happen to use more than
the recipe calls for. With it you
can make a delicious angel cake
with three eggs instead of eight, and
can economize in other expensive
ingredients.

How Dr. Price's Baking
Po~der Saves Eggs
Many housewives are aware that the use of
Dr. Price's Baking Powder permits a considerable
saving in the number of eggs. This advantage possessed
by Dt. Price's is emphasized by the present
high price of eggs, but the saving is considerable at
all times.
In nearly all recipes in which eggs are used the
number may be reduced one-half or more, and excellent
results obtained by using a small additional
quantity of Dr. Price's Baking Powder, about a teaspoon,
in place of each egg omitted. The recipes in
this booklet illustrate how this may be done.
Exper:t cooks have tested these recipes, and the
delicious products that have been made without
eggs, or with one or two eggs when more· were used .
in the Old Way, have shown how the small additional
quantity of Dr. Price's Baking Powder in
place of each egg omitted effects a substantial saving
without taking away the good qualities of the food.
Many comparative tests of the quality and cost of
foods made at home with Dr. Price's Baking Powder
and those purchased in the bake-shop, have demonstrated
that food made at home is not only of better
quality and more economical, but will keep fresh
longer. Also there is the added advantage of knowing
that the ingredients used are wholesome.
The tables of ingredients under the Old Way
show by comparison the saving in eggs, shortening
and other expensive ingredients by the New Way.
The directions apply to the New Way.
