POTATO WEEK
Proposed That Every One Should
Make Special Effort to Eat
Potatoes

Three purposes will be accom-
plished by a nation wide potato
week, in which every one willmake
a special effort to eat potatoes
according to the United
States Department agriculture.
The first of these purposes is to
encourage the eating of the
tubers, because at that time it is
expected that potatoes will be
the most available and economical
starchy food; the second is to
save wheat during this period;
and the third is to encourage the
general use of potatoes as a
wheat substituteby the American
householder.

The bowels are the natural sewer

become obstructed by constipation a
part of the poisonous matter which

digestion and assimilation of food.
This condition is quickly relieved by
