Baking Helps Valuabie Sugdestions By Mrs. Nevada Briggs, Exponent of the Art of Baking, as taught by Mrs. Janet Mchenzie Hill Helpful Cake Making Hints Always sift flour and K C Baking Powder at least three times. IV e more sifting, the lighter the cake. Remember that! To cream but- ter and sugar quickly, warm the sugar slightly. Beat yolks of eggs with rotary beater. Whip whitcs of eggs with flat spoon whip. Water makes kghter cakes; milk makes richer cakes. To mix a cake, first cream but- ter and sugar thoroughly, then add yolks, if used. Then alternately add moisture and flour that has been sifted with baking powder and stir until smooth and glossy, adding egg whites after thoroughly mixing. Always use K C Baking Powder. Biscuit Helps Alwayssift flour and K C Baking Powder at least three times. Have shortening cold and firm. Mix dough as soft as it can be handled. The softer dough goes into the oven, the lighter the biscuit when it comes out. Itis easier for K C Baking Powder to do its work in soft than in stiff dough. Mix biscuits very little, Do not knead. Stir up with spoon or knife and press in shape to roll on floured board. With K C Baking Powder re- sults are sure and certain. Ask FINANGING CIVIC IMPROVEMENTS of Excess Gondemnation. Obstacle to Be Overcome—Most Di- rect Method of Assessing Property Owners Has Distinct Advantages. The first cost of the replanning of a city is the principal obstacle which has to be overcome, says Frank Koester, nance.” Although there can be no ques- tion of its ultimate worth and almost problem of securing the necessary cap- ital and the proper distribution of the burdens and the benefits to be derived requires careful financing. While cities like Paris, London and Berlin have spent hundreds of mil- lions of dollars on improvements, they are only able to do it at the cost of considerable additional burdens to the taxpayers, which in smaller cities, though proportionately less, would still be insupportable. The principal methods adopted are creasing in extent with the distance of your grocer for K C. 89 AT LESS MEAT I BACK HURTS Take a glass of Salts to flush Kidneys if Bladder bothers you—Drink lots of water.

In European cities where excess con- demnation is practiced the city pur- chases by condemnation proceedings not only the land needed for the pro-|| posed improvements, whether it be for a street, a park or other purpose, bntL in addition as much more land as is likely to be increased.-in value by the improvements. After the improve- ments have been made the land is beld and sold from time to time to the best advantage or it is developed and held by the city for a long period until a favorable opporunity arises for its sale. Excess condemnation is highly de- sirable for sites of schools, parks and the like which are in contemplation, as the city may hold the land over a long term of years in advance of its |g atilizatior and be saved the high cost of sites whose purchase is delayed un- til the city is built up. Excess con- demnation, however., as a means of paying for the cost of improvements is open to serious objections. The en- hancement in real estate values after the improvements are made is seldom {E more than half the cost of the improve- ment, besides which there is the inter- est on the bonds and the loss of taxes owners on the land so condemned. The most direct method of assessing the property owners offers advantages over the excess condemnation system particularly when all the property benefited is assessed. even though it is at a considerable distance from the location of the improvement itself. As the purpose of excess condemnation is simply to enable the city to reimburse by the benefits derived therefrom. as- sessment proves to be a method for large improvements, just as equitable and effective since those benefited pay the sum directly to the city, instead of having to sell their property to the city. and then perhaps buy it back again. Direct assessment, however, is open to many serious objections. for the amounts must be arbitrarily fixed and may and may not prove fair. Further, the property owners must obtain the capital immediately and the amount is thus withdrawn at once instead of be- ing distributed over a term of years as in the sale of bonds. Experiefice s necessary Tn asseéssifig Tl property, since the’property owners are entitled to have the burden equitably adjusted-and to know-in advance what they will have to pay. The assessments should not decrease in direct propor- tion to the distance from the improve- ment, but fn'a more sharply decreasing ratio. the most equitable rate for which should " be" obtained aund ‘applied by those ‘who are called upon to make, assessments.
