tein in potatoes is very slight, and
most Of what is there is Of no nu-
tritive value. The very small
amount Of fat is found chiefly in
the skin and is so scant that it is
not usually counted when discuss
ing their food value. Whe most
important mineral matter found in
potatoes is potash, soda and lime.
The Juice Of a potato contains cit
ric, tartaric and succinic acid. 1T
is said the flavor of the potato
comes from traces of solanin,
which is poisonous if in large
quantities. Old potatoes which
have spronted or been exposed to
light will often turn green near
the skin and in these a large guam
tity of solanin is found, and is also
found in the potato which is not
well developed If used as a food
at all, care should be taken to cut
away all of the green part next to
the skin.
The per cent Of starch, water,
etc, will, of course, vary according
to age, cultivation, climate and
soil. In the young potato there is
less starch than when mature, for
as the tuber lies in the ground the
starch increases, therefore the well
developed ones are the ones that
are mealy when cooked. However,
when a potato begins to sprout
some of this starch turns to glu-
cose and the potato is more watery
aud less appetlzing, besides having
larger amount Of solanin which
makes them less desirable.
1he young potato apd earlier
varieties are usually said to have a
better flavor. They have less
starch, more protein, acids and
mineral matter. 1t is the unform-
ed starch and immature cell tissues
that caused the early potato to be
less digestible and often causing
severe bowel trouble. The later
varieties, when well matured. are
fluffy and mealy when cooked and
are considered one of the most
easily digested of our starchy foods
While filling a very important
place among the foodstuffs, the po.
tato used alone as diet would be
extremely one-sided. A man at.
tempting to nourish himself on &
diet of potatoes alone would have
to assimilate ten to eleven pounds

n day, while if he chose diet Of
eggs, flesh and bread, two to three
pounds would be sufficient. One
pound of dry uncooked rice is said
TO equal in food value four and II
halfpounds of potatoes. Since the
potato is so poor in protein our
tissue building food--it can not be
used to support life and should be
used in connection with foods rich
in protein, as meat, milk, cheese,
eggs, etc. The abundant supply
of mineral matter in the potato is
said to be valuable aid to diges-
tion and in spite of the fact that
one occasionally hears that pota-
toes are indigestible and unwhole-
some they are eaten by ell sorts OF
people the world over
Potatoes are usually cooked by
boiling, baking or frying, although
there are hundreds of recipes for
cooking them, the foundation is
usually one of these three methods.
If potato is boiled with the skin
on, it will lose less nutriment than
when pared and boiled. If the
skin is left on it is better to pare a
ring round the middle so the mois-
ture may escape, otherwise it will
become soggy. When baked in
their skins potatoes undergo the
same change as in boiling, except
they lose none of their ingredients
except very little water, which
evaporates through the skin.
When the water contained in e
potato becomes heated it expands,
rupturing the starch cells.
Baking seems best to break up
thestarch cells and in this way the
potato offers less resistanceto the
action of the digestive Juices than
soggy or i'll cooked ones.
Fried potatoes contain great
deal of fat and are harder to digest.
If raw ones are used to fry they
should be cut into small thin pieces
20 the heat may penetrate enough
to cook the starch thoroughly be-
fore getting too brown If one
wishes to reduce weight they
should keep clear of fried potatoes
as they are usually prepared.
In potatoes served in a cream
sauce we get the protein in the
milk and -four used and the fat
from the butter. If cooked will

culture,
Owing to the rapid development
OF the potato growing industry es
a money crop and it's steadily in
: creasing popularity as a food, it
will be both interesting and bene-
fetal to know its history and its
real food value.
The potato, called by different
people, White potato, English po-
tato or Irish potato, stands in the
vegetable kingdom second only to
the cereals. The most important
products Of the vegetable kingdom
are the breadstuffs and cereals, but
next to these we place the potato
tuber.
The White potato came from q
Wild plant FIRST discovered in Chill,
the root or tuber being used by the
natives as food. It was carried to
Europe by the Spaniards about
1850. and was for number OF
years grown in gardens more for q
curiosity than for food. The be-
lief that it was poisonous plant
kept the people from using it as q
food until series of bad harvests
made the staple food crops so poor
that the potato became popular
and has been increasing III popu-
larity ever since.
1t came to this country about the
end Of the sixteenth century, and
was first grown in North Carolina
and Virginia. The fact that poto-
toes can be raised with small cost,
kept over winter and can be pre-
pared in SO many different ways
made it rise quickly to prominent
place in our vegetable kingdom.
Statistics are usually considered
dull, but we can hardly imagine
the increase and popularity of this
vegetable until we look at govern
,aent statistics, which gave us q
short while ago these figures:
White potetoes raired in this
country amounted to 273,3l8,l67
bushels or 407 per cent of the
whole vegetable crop of the United
States. These potatoes were valu-
ed at S99,38O,1lO. The greater
amount of these are used as food,
small portion is used for animal
fodder and for manufacturing
starch, alcohol and glucose, but it
is mainly the inferior quality used
in this way.
In Europe most of the starch on
the market is made from the pota-
to, but in this country our corn
starch has supplanted it and we
seldom see potato starch on our
market, it being used principally
by manufacturer in the making OF
paper and textiles. The greatest
part of our winter potatoes are
raised in the Northeastern and
Central States, and the Southern
States producing chiefly the early
varieties which are shipped to the
Northern markets.
With cultivation the potato
seems to have lost its power of
producing seed. In its wild state
it was raised from seed, but now,
rs we know, the grower uses the
old tubers, each eye in the potato
producing a new bud or plant.
The potato is really a large under
ground stem in which the plant
stores material held in reserve for
the growth of new plants.
The value of the potato as food
lies in the starch it contains, it be-
ing about 95 per cent water and
starch. A diagram of a potato will
show plainly that the bulk of it is
water, The edible portion, that is,
tho notato without skin, holds an

Ex-Gov. Hanley Speaks at
First N. E. Church

Ire congregation aG Cle ElfSI
VI. E. Church was given an un-
us uaI treat on Sunday morning in
the form of an address by Ex-Gov.
J. Frank HanlY of Indiana.
Gov. Hanly is a prominent lay
mar in the M. E. Church as we'll
as a lawy err, statesman, and lectur-
err of national repute. He has been
a member of several General Con-
ferences of his own church and In
1910 was chosen to represent his
connection as Fraternal Lay Dele
gate to the General Conference of
the M +. Church South at Ash
vile, N. g.
Gov. Hanly's subject was, "The
Divinity OF Christ" Those who
heard him on Saturday knew what
to expect and the church was filled.
Rev. L. G.. Hammond of the Cen
trail Christian Church also courte-
ousIy dismissed his congregation
that they might attend.
The key thought of the address
was the proof of Christ's Divinity
in His influence upon the race.
The speaker portrayed the lowlY
birth; the brief period of publicity;
the limited field of influence; the
ignomimous death and the utter
lack of greatness in a single line
as men count greatness.
"And yet the greatest of the
great. The one whose greatness
nineteen centuries emblazes brigh-
ter. Not a physician; but the
worker of cures more wonderful
than all physicians cure OF
souls. Not a lawyer, yet the EX-
FOUNDER of the principles which
lie at the base of all laws and JUS
tice. Not an author; yet the
Fountain Source of a Gospel which
has a circulation to-day sixteen
times greater than the circulation
OF the next most widely known
book. Not a poet, musician, an
ATTEST, an architect; and yet the
inspiration of all the best in poetry,
in music, in art, or 10 architecture.
Without Him Dante would have
remained silent, and Shakespeare
without great thoughts; Milton
and Tennyson would not have spok-
en- and Longfellow and Whittier
would have had no vision; Mo-
zart's and Handles masterpieces
would have remained unwritten
and Raphael. Michael Ange!ow
and Lenardo Da Vinci would
have been unknown. Not a states
man and yet He has changed
the government ana life of nations
and all people bow in homage at
His crucifed feet"
Such was the portrayal closed
with this fitting climax Can any
man in the face of this miracle of
miracles account for it on the
ground that He was mere man?
Not Jesus Christ the man, but
Jesus Christ the God-such | BE-
lleve Him to be, and such 1 pre-
sent Him to you"
The address was masterful in
grasp and presentation. 1t was
also thoroughly appreciated. Few
knew that he had spoken an hour
and a quarter. Captain Hobson,
who also partjcipatedin the service.
afterward said that he considered
the address greater than Bryan's
famous lecture, "The Prince of
Peace" Both Ex-Gov. Hanly and
Capt. Hobson left for Waycross
SuadaY afternoon as they we've to
debate IN that city Yesterday.
