which there was no relief but merciful

POTATOES AT THEIR BEST
Universally Popular Vegetable VIII
We'll Repay All the Care That
Can Be Given to 1t.

There are many varieties Of pota-
toes. Tastes differ as to the most de-
sirable kind In this country the white
potato, when light and dry, is pre-
ferred. 1t is especially suited for boil
ing, steaming and baking, also for
soups and purees. The yellow pota-
toes are more suitable for salads, rag
outs, hash and frying, because they
keep their shape when cooked. The
sweet potato, makes a pleasant and
healthful addition to the table. 1t is
rich in starch and sugar and somewhat
laxative.
The white and yellow varieties con-
tain a. large percentage of water. a
fair percentage of starch, very small
cent mineral matter. 1t is to this min
eral matter that the potato owes its
antiscorbutic properties.
Potatoes cooked In dry heat, as by
baking In the oven, roasting in ashes,
frying in deep fat, or steaming with.
out peeling are more pronounced and
savory than when cooked in water. But
the vegetables so cooked must be
served just as soon as they are done,
or else they will become soggy. On
the contrary, boiled potatoes may be
kept warm for an hour or more after
cooking without i'll results.
Potatoes should cook in half an hour
il ordinary size. Large potatoes should
be given five minutes more, and small
ones two minutes less. These rules
apply to peeled, partly peeled or I'M
peeled.
The potatoes should be covered with
boiling water and brought quickly to
boil. After fifteen minutes add one
tablespoonful of salt to every twelve
potatoes. At the end of thirty minutes
drain off. To make them very white
and mealy, after draining off the wa.
ter, put the cover on, hold it down
firmly and give the pot a shake. Next
open the window and hold the uncov-
cred pot outside for few seconds, to
let the steam escape. Place the YES
sci where it will keep warm for few
minutes, covering with folded cloth,
not the lid.
When boiling potatoes in their skins
a narrow band of the skin should be
removed from the center Of the vege-
table and small bits from either end.
Steamed potatoes will require forty
minutes to cook, the water boiling
hard all the time.
Baked potatoes Tin their skins) must
be pricked before putting into the
oven to allow the gases to escape. The
oven should be very hot. as number
of cold potatoes will lower the tenn
perature One hour should be allowed.
Small sweet potatoes will bake in
half an hour. large ones an hour or
more. Those who like them moist and
sweet may bake them two hours.
