Eat More Potatoes

This Is a good year to eat pota-
toes. When selling at normal
price, bushel of potatoes furnishes
cheaper food than almost any other
article of diet. The yield in the Un-
tied States this year promises about
453, ,000,0 of bushels. Last year
the yield was a little above 285. .000,-
900. This Is an increase Of sixty
one per cent. The price. should drop
accordingly. and the potato be found
more frequently upon the American
table.

MUSKRATS SAID TO
BE GOOD EATING
Burt w. Day Says They Are Better
than Rabbit-Uncle Sam Says
They are Good

In a letter to the Public Safety
Commission, Burt w. Day Of Hutch
inson says:
"a st. Paul fur buyer informs me
that he thinks approximately 400,-
900 muskrats will be taken in Min
nesota this winter.
"Muskrats are a palatable and
wholesome article of food. They have
been eaten many times by the MEM
bers of the Gopher Campfire club of
Hutchinson, and are considered by
them as good as squirrel and better
than rabbit. If the slight flavor of
musk is unpleasant it can be removed
by parboiling the flesh a few min
utes with a dash of vinegar in the
water.
"a muskrat dressed will weigh
about one and quarter pounds,
which means (if the fur buyer is
correct in his estimate Of the whit
er's CATCHY that 100000 pounds of
good meat is available If people will
learn to eat muskrats. That would
be ESQ tons of food saved.
81 think meat dealers should be
asked to sell muskrats and recon-
mend them to their patrons"
MUSKRAT GOOD SAYS UNCLE
SAM
Farmers Bulletin No. 396, issued
by the U. S. Department Of Agricul-
ture, says of eating muskrats:
I'm recent years many persons of
refined taste have eaten the flesh of
the muskrat. One writer. is empha-
tic in declaring it to be game worthy
of an epicure, with a flavor some
what like the wild duck that has
been shot in the same marshes where
it has fed. A number of persons
have likened its flavor to that of the
, famous terrapin of the Chesapeake.
Only in summer does the musky odor
pervade the flesh but care should be
exercised not to let the fur touch the
flesh while dressing"
Muskrat is favorite dish at din
ners given by church societies in
Delaware and Maryland and annual
Muskrat Ranquets are a feature of
! certain gun clubs in the west. Those
! of the Monroe, (Mich) Marsh club
have been celebrated for many years.
The bulletin recommends that be-
fore cooking the flesh be allowed to
soak over night in salt water.

formal declaration of a state of
war, to vote credits and supplies

iAssOciated Press By Federal wireless,

WASHINGTON, April a. Every mo.
ment that the formal declaration Of
war is delayed is 80 much time gained
for the navy, and the department, un.
der the direction of Admiral w. 8. Ben.
son, chief of operations, is taking full
advantage of every one Of those mo
ments.
The naval authorities are rushing
their work with all possible haste. The
department has completed plans which
call for the expenditure Of $lss, 900, 900.
Approximately sll5,O0O,OO0 will be
spent for the construction of ships, and
.$ls,0O0,O00 viii go for equipment and
for the enlargement and perfecting in
modern appliances Of navy yards
throughout the country.
AT a meeting Of the cabinet yester.
day IL was decided tat the chief work
of preparation for war at this stage
would be naval, and that the energies
of the government would be devoted to
bringing the navy to a state Of com
plete preparedness for the demands
that are to be made upon it, to keep
clear the sea lanes, to protect Amer
lean commerce, and to strike the Prus-
sian pirates whenever and wherever
found at work.
The first work that the navy will be
called upon 70 do, il was said yester-
day, will be the protection of the
American Atlantic coasts from possible
attacks by German submarines. 1t is
regarded here as more than likely that
the Entente naval authorities will place
at the disposal of the American navy
the plans for combating the submar-
inc menace which they have worked
out, and it IL understood that the
American officials have themselves some
ideas on the same subject which have
been worked out in the past few
months.
The use of nets, aeroplanes. and swift
sea. scouts to meet the submarine in his
lair and down him, is well understood
and the government has already begun
preparations for this kind Of warfare.
The work Of constructing huge nets

pushed with all possible speed, for il
is recognized that Germany, with her

strike at any .unguarded spot along our
Atlantic seaboard.
But the government is not going "a
rest content with merely defensive
measures, for it realizes that the best
defense is the offensive, once war has
been declared, Consequently. it was
admitted yesterday, that huge quaint.

WASHlNGToN, April 4 ~
- Blocked for the time being

ably will be made by congress
either tonight or Thursday morn
ing. No real filibuster is expect
ed to interfere with the proceed
ings of the two houses, although
IT was admitted that the pro-Ger-
man element in the country may
succeed in preventing for a time
full cooperation with the Entente
Allies. This opposition to ailying
the nation with the Entente is
likely to develop in the form Of
opposition to voting supplies and
munitions as well as money, but
it is believed that it will not be
strong enough to hinder the ac-

In the committee the resolution
has met with unanimous support
except for Senator Stone, another
