MORE POTATOES, LESS BREAD

The more potatoes you eat the less bread you need at the same meal. Potatoes, of course, con- tam a larger percentage of water than does bread, so that weight for weight they are not equiva- lent to bread as a source of strrch and energy. As a general proposition. however. one medi- um sized potato (6 oUnces) would supply about ,as much starch as two medium-sized slices of bread (about 2 ounces). Five parts of potato are equal 10 one part of cereal in q mixed diet. Therefore. those who make po- tatoes an important dish safely can cut town the amount of light or hot bread, wheat mushes or macoroni they eat at that meal. and yet supply their bodies with this important food - starch. Wherever potatoes are locally plentiful oe r. at:Fejy cheap, csf ecialiy ia.sIa ease of the easiy or senmer crop which does not tO.. E"nseV ives are urged lo a-"f n pl4ntlfuiy at all meai~ &, d ,ubstitute for wheat

of Agriculture point out. The potato Irish or sweet - differs from almost all other common vegetables in that it supplies im- portant amounts of starch, and starch is the chief food element we get from bread. Green veg etables, with which potatoes are classed, supply little or no starch and energy. and are valuable in the diet principally for the min- eral substances and acids they supply and for giving bulk to the diet. Potatoes, of course, SUD- ply valuable mineral substances useful in the building up, repair, and regulation of the body, but they have won their great place in the diet of a large part of the world because they supply starch which otherwise would have to be obtained from cereals.

AN INTERESTING MEETING.

On last Friday night. Sept. Fl. some near one hundred men rep resenting a half-doZen school districts of the southern part of this county. met at Holly Springs to discuss the vaccination law. The citizens are much stirred up by this law, there being no special benefits derived from it, and chances for serious results by vaccinating.
 The house was called to order by Prof. J. B. Silvey who was later elected chairman. Talks were called for, and many old grey-haired men stood and told how this law was being forced on them without their consent.
 The following resolution was formed and unanimously adopted:
 Resolution
 Whereas we are living under a form of Government which gives free rights to all and special privilege to none. Also, we be- lieve the majority should rule, and we believe the above has been violated in the so-called vaccination law, and that it is not in keeping with Republican form of Government. which is of the people, for the people, by the people. Therefore be it re- solved that we, the people of south Nevada county, will not obey this so-called vaccination law. Furthermore be 1t resolved that we, as law abiding citizens, pray that such imposition as this law and others of like construc- tion, be repealed for our general welfare.
 We also instruct our Secretary to send a copy of said Resolu- ti0ns to each of our county pa pers, and furthermore insist that the entire county call meeting and adopt these or similar Reso. lutions.

From here to the Pulaski county line on the uper Hot Springs road the country was practically level and covered with white and pink crystal quartz rocks
 found all this country clear down to Alexander 10 be much better than
 had expected, nearly level and but thinly settled. The farmers living on it are doing well and making as good crops as any of the hill farmers. Mr. Townsend on Panther Creek is rais- ing the finest kind of apples and had two or three varieties ripe while I was there. He has seven springs on his place, one in each field. so when at work he does not have to carry water with him. The creek water al so is better than most people have to drink and runs the year round.
