Potato Starch.

Bruised and otherwise unmarketable
potatoes may be used in making po-
tato starch, very desirable and health
full food Potato starch can be used in
many ways for food purpose, in making
salads, puddings, milk dishes, etc. In
every potato section of the country
thousands of bushels of potatoes are
wasted every year which could just as
well be utilized in making potato starch.
Use of plenty of water and vegetable
scrubbins brush in washing the pota-
toes. Seat yourself in convenient po-
sition with a vessel containing potatoes
at one side and an empty vessel for tie
gratings on the other Place dishpan
