THE VALUE OF POTATOES


There is no food which exactly
takes the place Of the potato when n
is accustomed to it, says a statement
issued by the United States depart
ment of agriculture, urging an in
creased consumption Of this vegetable
now that the markets of the country
are well supplied sit has come to be
such a part of our dinner that we
miss it when it is not served. Besideh,
any leftover potato can be used in
many very palatable ways for break
fast or supper, and this is a conven-
fence from the housekeeper's stand
point, since it helps here to make pa
latable meals. Not only is it useful
from the east with which it can be
prepared and the number Of palatable
ways in which It can be served, but it
is very important for the food ma
terial it supplies. 1t is one of the
most wholesome sources of starch and
is also fairly rich in the mineral mat
ter which the body needs. Of the
mineral salts must not overlook
the Importance Of the mild alkaline
salts it contains, because there are
greatly needed by the body to coun-
terbalance the acid salts which meats
and eggs produce when assimilated.
In this we have a justification of the
use of potatoes in the diet in liberal
quantities and of our common custom

NEW SUB

Since April l German submarines
have been equipped with four new de-
vices which in creases their destruct-
iveness, an drender it more difficult
for chasers to discover their where

remain in one spot, had to come to
the surface, or anchor themselves to
the bottom; but four small pumps are
nov used which enable them to remain
stationary while submerged. This not

COCCH| DECLARES
HE SPENT z DAYS
WITH PRIEST HERE
Slayer Admits He "Smothered'
Miss Cruger to Quiet
Her Screams.

BOLOGNA. italy. Juno 26-TheI
italian authorities have forwarded to-
America tho FIRST batch OF papers
dealing with the confession OF Al
fredo Coccht that .he killed Ruth
Cruger.
When further interrogated in court,
Cocchi said he sailed from America
on Feb. II, having spent night and
two days with priest. Father Nor
etto. living on Charlton Street. MAN.
haitian
The only additional details he gave
Of the murder were that he smothered
Miss Cruger TO prevent her shrieklng,
that he struck her while they strug-
gled. and that in falling she must
have struck some vital spot, as hsy
suddenly discovered she was dead.
He then carried tho body to the cellar.
he said, and buried II in a hole In
which he had stored gasoline.
The police are authority for the
statement that Coochrs relatives
were fearful something serious had
taken place as soon as Cocchi landed
here. He told them he had left New
York because OF the jealousy Of his
wife. He also said he was anxious
to join the colors.
He went - Imola, where he called
on his wife's family, and begged them
to intercede with Mrs Cocchi. They
Jointly med a letter and gave 1t TO
him to mail. They now believe he de-
stroyed IL.
Some time after this the MagrlniS,
his wife's relatives. received "a letter
from Mrs. Cocchi containing a pic
ture of Ruth Cruger.
Alfredo has eloped with u rich girl
Of eighteen" she wrote. "TIer family
Is turning New York upsid4down 70
find her and has offered "a reward OF
$1,000"
She added that the police. unable 70
find Cocchi. had revensed them
selves by making a search OF tne
shop.
When this story was told to Cocchi
by his wife's relatives he made veha-
ment denial. saying that the charge
was due 10 his wltes usual imagina-
ton" However, he told how Miss
Cruger had gone to his shop to have
her skates sharpened. When pressed
for further particulars he wept and
said he was a victim OF persecution.
May 81 Mrs. Cocchi wrote a second
letter, saying she was being detained
as a material witness against her
husband and that she was In deH-
perate straits. She said Athos. her
youngest son, was almost dead frOCl
privation and fright"
Talks with lawyers not directly con-
nected with the case have elected tho
fact that there prevails in this circle
an impression that some members OF
the Cocchi family were aware Of the
crime long before the impression that
Ruth Cruger had been murdered be-
came general.
