Give Up Potatoes For Other Foods

Give Up Potatoes For Other Foods.
Potatoes are not now the poor
mans food,'' says R. w. Thatcher,
chief of the division of agricultural
biochemistry, University Farm Po-
tatoes contain, on the average, 70 per
cent of water and % per cent of
ac.ual food material. A bushel of DO
tatoes, therefore, contains only little
over IL pounds of actual food SUBJ
stance. At the present retail price of
potatoes, $500 bushel, each pound
of food which they contain costs over
"a cents. A pound of rice which. con-
tains 88 per cent of food and IL per
cent of water costs 8B cents, so that
one pound of food almost exactly like
that in potatoes can be bought as rice
for little less than 10 cents. A ten
cent loaf of bread contains about -
ounces of food and 6 ounces of water:
hence pound of food as bread, which
is much better balanced food than
either rice or potatoes, can be bought
for 12k cents. Wheat flour furnishes
pound of food at a cost of cents,
At present prices, potatoes are four
times as costly as, wheat flour, twice
as expensive as bakers bread, and
two and half times as expensive as
rice, the food which most closely re-
sembles them in the character of food
furnished. People can we'll afford to
stop eating potatoes altogether until
the price falls to less than half what
1t is at present.
