Potatoes Not Needed In our Diet.

The present high cost of po-
tatoes has caused many house
wives to look about for other ar
ticles Of food which will take
their place on the table.
Potatoes, although popularity
classed as "a vegetable, serve the
same place in the meal as do the
cereal foods
They are used for food because
|of their characteristic flavor, ease
|of cooking and the many forms
in which they may be served.
Dried potatoes contain about IS
per cent starch and it is to this
starch that their food value is al
most entirely due.
The following table compiled by
VIM. H. Harrison, assistant
chemist of the food and dairy de-
partment, shows some of the
more common foods which also

Annual alsetine Of the oommsr.
slai Club.
The annual meeting Of the
Commercial Club was held in the
K of P hall last evening and was
attended by one of the largest
crowds assembled for some time
at such a meeting. Between 90
and 100 members of the club were
there and most enthusiastic
meeting was held. The good
fellowship and enthusiasm
WAS greatly enhanced by the ex-l
|cellent three course banquet
served by Mrs. McCune. All were
loud in their praise of the fine
meal and unexcelled service and
a resolution was introduced COM
mending them on their part of
the evenings enjoyment. After
the inner man had been throughly
satisfied, President Harvey called
the meeting to order and num-
Der of topics were discussed. The
club went on record as favoring
the county agricultural advisor
and a committee was appointed
to try to get enough farmers and
business men signed up to hire
an advisor. The club then went
into discussion of the Pitt
johnson road bill and from the
talks OF the members it could be
easily seen the feeling was run
ming high against the bill Far
mer and merchant alike felt the
passage of the bill meant the
tearing down of all the good
roads legisltion with have been
passed in the last quarter of a
century. The club felt that
more good roads legislation was
badly needed in place of that
Pitt-Johnston bill, which destroys
|alf present legislation and places,
the roads of the state on the
same footing they were when they
were but COW paths in place of
roads. The bill is simply
political move of the rankest
sort and the business men did
not propose to have the good
name of the state put in jeopardy
just for the benefit of few
politicians. A committee was.
appointed to draft resolutions to
send to interested parties at Des
MOines. A committee from the
shops was present to ask aid of
the club for the Sick Benefit As
|sociation and SIS was raised to
help the shop boys.
The election of officers then
followed and the following Off
Gers were elected for the ensuing
year: President r. D. McEvoy,
Vice President, L. r. Pike, Sec.
|E. NJ Rhodebeck, Treas. j. b.
Barrett. Directors, R. w. Harvey,
w. A. Jones, H. r.. Newton, G. w.
kellogg, G. H. Deur. T. M. Gilmore,
TX. X. Huntsinger, J. s. Dewell and

A committee was appointed to.
confer with the city council in
regard to fixing the road on Sun
|nyside.
