Salem will have its free band con-
crets next summer, but the children
will be obliged to do their playing on
the streets or back yards. This is the
decree of the city fathers who in form.
al session last evening voted $500 for
band concerts but who turned down the
proposition to give 5000 for the chill
dren's play grounds.
Library Fares Well.
Those interested in the intellectual
welfare of the city Jared well. In fact,
the only article on the budget that was
given a larger sum than last year was
the public library. On one amendment
to an amendment, the councilmen voted
$5,250 for the support of the library
and then when there wasn't quite so
many amendments mixed up, they
voted $4,000. 1t is the sum of $1,000
the library will receive for the coming
year. This year it was $4,000.
Total City Expenses.
The total sum for maintaining the
city next year is $l52,235, which is
Just $l5,235 less than for this year.
AS the budget finally passed, the
figures read as follows:
Recorder IS salary, $1,000, the same as
this year. Clerk hire, $l740, same as
this year.
Treasurer salary, $1,000, an advance
of 5000 over this year.
City attorney, 1920, and his stenog-
rapher, $400, this being the same as
for 1917.
The marshal will receive the same
salary, $l2OO. The police department is
in the budget for $3.50, against 1850
for 1917. There was at one meeting an
effort made to cripple the police de-
partment, but this was not favorably
received.
The street commissioner will receive
$1,000, the police matron 5000 and the
expenses of the police department, ,>$400.
The health officer will be paid $500
for the coming year and his deputy,
5000, the same as for this year. The
incidental expenses of the health office
was placed at 5000.
Salaries and maintenance of the fire
department goes on the budget at $6,-
075. There was some discussion in re-
gard to cutting down this amount but
the aldermen were disposed to keep
this department up to its present high
rating.
Some Items Cut.
Last year the budget called for $400
for installation and maintenance of
fire hydrants. This year the figure
was cut to 5000.
Water supply, fire hydrants holds at
the figure of this year, $4,000.
Engineering and surveying was cut
to $3.50 and the maintenance of pub
lie buildings at $1,000.
Fuel for the city hall was figured at
$500 and for the care Of the new com

Federal Experts Give Many
Recipes for Use Of Potatoes

Washington, D. c., Dec. 1.--f' Are
You eating your share of the country's
bumper potato crop asks the United
States department. Of agriculture in a
recent statement. Now that the tu-
bers are once more plentiful and cheap
they may well be given a prominent
place on the dinner table, continues
the statement.
The department makes the follow
ing suggestions in regard to the use
OF potatoes at dinner:
Potatoes at Dinner
Poatoes may be freely used at din
ner, the variety which we all like be-
ing secured by varying the ways in
which the potatoes are served. Then,
too, one should not overlook the fact
that, since both of them are foods
which are very palatable sources of
starch, by eating more potatoes one can
diminish the bread eaten and thus help
to- save wheat, which is such an impor-
tant matter at the present time.
Many think that potatoes are at their
best when prepared in the simplest
ways, that is, baked or boiled, but even
so some variety is possible, for they
may be baked in their jackets, or with
the skins rubbed or seFaped off, or
pared and baked in the pan with meat,
the juice they absorb improving their
flavor. The skins may be easily rubbed
eff new potatoes, and almost as easily
from old potatoes provided they are
first dropped for ten minutes in boil
ing water.
Potatoes may be boiled or steamed
in the jackets, peeled entirely, or with
only ring peeled around the center.
The boiled potatoes may be served as
they are, or mashed, or riced. Such sim
pie changes as these help to give va
riety.
Minted Potatoes
Boiled potatoes are at their best
when mealy, so, after boiling, the wa
ter should be poured off, a little salt
sprinkled over the potatoes, and the
kettle not quite covered, and placed on
the back of the stove, so that they may
"dry OUT
If you wish novelty, in boiling new
potatoes add a few mint leaves to the
water in which they are cooked. In
baking potatoes one should always re-
member that, to be at their best, they
should be served as soon as they are
done. If one can not serve them at
once, the skin on one side should be
slashed in order to allow the steam to
escape, and the potatoes kept hot.
Fried potatoes arc also favorites and
the ways in which they can be either
fried in deep fat or pan fried are mum
erous and are well known. Fried pota-
toes seasoned with onion are a common
dinner dish, and one should remember
that green peppers can be used with the
onions or in place of them.
Potatoes With Sauce or Cheese.
Potatoes hased w3i1 Smta sauce ard
cheese, sealIoped potatoes, and similar
dishes can be used in place of macoroni
and spaghetti, and potato dumplings can
be used in place of wheat dumplings.
Cooked in combination with other
foods, in a meat pie, for instance, po-

Creaned Potatoes.

There are several different ways in
which creamed potatoes may be prepar-
ed. First: Freshly boiled or cold boiled
potatoes may be cut into small cubes
and served heated in cream sauce. Sec
ond: Wash, pare, and cut potatoes into
small cubes. Put into frying pan with 9
few slices of onion cut up very fine, and
parboil 10 minutes. Pour off water. Add
one tablespoon butter drippings, or 9th,
er fat, seasoning of salt and pepper, and
milk enough to cover. Cook for 10 min
utes or 20 minutes, or until the potatoes
are well done and the sauce thick and
creamy. 1t is necessary to stir the pota-
toes frequently to prevent sticking. The
starch in the potatoes thiekens the
sauce. Creamed potatoes are partieul-
arly good to serve with fish or chick
on.
