FEEDING OF WORLD IS

New York, May l6.-Feeding the

10.000,0O0 persons in Belgium, and
now being pretty nearly food boss sot
the world ought to know some.
thing about It.
Hoover puts it up to the women of
America to conserve the food supply
and win the war. NJ ",
Outside the 10 or Is per cent of
the total f00dstuffs in public places,
the women of a nation control its
food consumption and it is the women
who must effect any saving says
Hoover.
II believe the women of America
will do their share for the; cause"
When it comes to feeding the
world, Hoover says the job of feeding
two or three hundred millions more

81. HI. On PeeInq Potatoes

The home economics department of
the North Dakota Agricultural col
lege has just completed an expert
ment to determine the loss in peeling
potatoes raw. ,&t
T.. Often times the potato is peeled be-
fore boiling. This is a wasteful prac-
tice, as considerable of the potato is
removed with the peel. Another point
to consider is that the, protein and
mineral matter in potato lie near
the skin. With the medium sized pO-
tato the loss was 10 to, 2l per cent
when the potato was pared very thin
ly, and with small potatoes the loss
amounted 425 per cent When
peeled after being boiled the loss in
peeling was 8 per cent. In this case,
however, just the skin was removed
and the layer next the skin that is
richest in food value was saved.
The potato cooked in it's jacket has
better flavor than the potato boiled
after being peeled, but it will not be
quite as white. 1t is estimated that
when potatoes are pared before cook
ing the loss on one bushel is equal
in food value to one pound of :sirloin
steak
If the potatoes are wilted they
should be soaked before using. This
is especially important If they are to
be pared raw, as thinner peeling can
be removed. .>E 42
A considerable saving can be made
by cooking potatoes in their Jackets.
A better flavor is also secured.
