agreeable favor. 1t was introduced
into this country at the time Of Ra-
leigh's voyages to Nirginic, and has
steadily increased in popularity ever
since.
Every school child is aware that
potatoes are classed as starch foods,
and that their bulk is made up large
~ OF water. The accompanying dia-
gram, a.ed for the Department Of
Agriculture, shows graphically the
proportion Of edible aud inedible con-
tents Of a potato. 1t is chiefly on ac-
count Of the starch content that po-
tatoes are eaten, and while they are
apparently not economical foods, ow-
ing TO the large proportion of water
which they contain, this is not actual
ly the case. In other foods, as for in
stance, rice, there is four times as
much nourishment as in an equal
weight Of potatoes, but then winter or
milk is added to the rice in preparing
It for the table, so that when ready to-
be eaten 1t very much resembles po-
tatoes In the assimilable proportion,
bulk for bulk. Equal weights of the
two foods do not cost as much in each
case.
Being chiefly starch the potato is-
valuable as source OF muscular en-
ergy and does not serve to build or
repair the body tissue, except in very
small degree. This explains why po-
tatoes are generally served with foods
rich in tissue making properties, such
as meats, and why 1t is that large
numbers of the country population Of
Ireland and Germany are so poorly
nourished. Potatoes alone are a very
one-sided diet.
The accompanying table shows at
glance how the potato is proportional
as regards its food value:
Water. ..,.... ..... ,,,.,,,,7S.3 per cent.
Stash, or energy'producing
material ........ ..,'.',..' lo'4 per cent
Nitrogens, or tissue'producing
material s,...s s.,ss ,,',s'. ~ per cent
fats.,...s ..,...,.., ,,,.,s,, vi per cent.
Mineral matters, chiefly pot
ash salts. ..,.. .,,..,.,,,,,.l.OO per cent.
1t is often asserted that the potato
is unwholesome, but there is no scien-
tlflc basis for 1t. Eaten alone pota-
toes, of course, would form a very
badly balanced diet. As n matter OF
fact its universal popularity and con-
sumption are evident from the Stats
tics above quoted, that 1t forms near
ly fourteen per cent. Of the total food
of the people of this country, furnish.
ing about four per cent. Of the total
proteins, or heterogeneous foods, and
nearly ten per cent. of the total carbo-
/ hydrates or starches.
A word Of warning. Potatoes that
have been stored for long time and
which have begun to sprout, should
not bee eaten, as they are apt to con-
tain an undue amount of solanin, or
poisonous substance. Numerous cases
OF poisoning are on record resulting
from this cause.--Philadelph Record

True story of Western "Bad Man"

History has 1t, with what accuracy
let us not inquire too closely, says Il.
Hough in Everybody's Magazine, that
when Billy the kid was yet boy, not
more than fourteen years Of age, soma
one addressed to his mother n disre-
spectful remark. This was in Arizona,
and at a time when resentments were
swift and deadly The story goes that
the boy drew a knife, fatally stabbed
the man, and then fed the country.
From that time Billy the Kid became
an outlaw, and an outlaw he remained
for the seven years which completed
the span or his short life.
To-day there is a little lowly heap
Of earth located at Las Cruces, New
Mexico. To the curious stranger some
idle native may, now and again, point
out this little grave and explain. with

worst bad man that ever infested the
Southwestern border. An ancient
Mexican, who sometimes shows this
grave to Visitors, once made the eau

that, had he lived, he would probably
have turned out to be bad man.
