POTATOES IN PLACE

No Scientific Reason For Not Substi-

Very tiich.

If wheat remains at its present high
if there is a corresponding increase in
the price OF bread, scientists in the Unit
ed states Department of Agriculture sug-
g'st that the ordinary household win
find it advantageous to eat more potatoes
and less bread With potatoes at i, cents

protein and fat are present in apprcciably
larger amounts in the bread, out the po-
tatocs Will be found to furnish more
carbohydrates, and more heat units
Carbohydrates tstarcm contribute
greatly to the energy value of any diet
and since potatoes are rich in these,
families that wish - expcnd their money
to the best advantage are recommended
to consider whether they cannot make
more extended use of them They are
easy to cook and when prepared in diff
fercnt ways can be made to lend variety
to the winter diet when green vegetable
are hard to obtain. Like other foods
relatively rich in carbohydrates. however.
potatoes should be eaten with foods cor

Under normal conditions in Europe ana
America the potato ranks next to bread
ias "A carbohydrate food If prices change
sufficiently to make it desirable from a
financial point of view there is no scien-
tific reason why potatoes should not be
substituted to great extent for bread.
In addition, the potato, like many fruits

condition in the body. This is another
reason for its being eaten in combna ton
