Another Fallacy Exploded ! Rumour hath it that because Edmonds Baking Powder costs more per tin, it is therefore dearer than other brands selling for less. But the position is quite the reverse, for each large tin of FDMONDS ONE QUALITY ONLY Baking Powder contains 14|ozs. —from 2| to 4|ozs. more of baking powder than is contained in tins of so-called “cheap” powders. Moreover, Edmonds contains absolutely genuine Grape Cream of Tartar of superlative quality, tmd no substitutes. Use Edmonds Baking Powder,, guaranteed pure and wholesome, and get better quality, greater leavening power and more weight. Edmonds Baking Powder is now obtainable in three sizes, containing 6£, 12 and 14f oz. respectively. Write for “ Free Cookery Book.” EDMONDS BAKING POWDER WORKS CHRISTCHURCH
