EAT MORE POTATOES
Demonstrators Show How Tubers Can
BE Cooked in Palatable Ways

The laboratory at Morrill, hall was
crowded to its limit Saturday afternoon
with women interested to hear and see
what could be done with potatoes. Miss
Bertha M. Holden, assisted by Miss Caro-
limo Meigs, demonstrated how to make
potato biscuit and potato -four biscuit,
and told the difference between them the
frst being slightly heavier. She also
made potato and corn meal mullins, potato
flour sponke cake and potato puff.
Miss Terrilrs demonstrations showed
the proper preparation and cooking of
potatoes in this most wholesome and
palatable way. She emphasized the
healthfulness of potatoes in the diet
She told the women that they should
make q greater use of potatoes or the
bumper crop would go to waste. and the
moral effect of that would be bad. She
said that heretofore four bushels per per-
son each year was the average amount
used. but from now on one extra bushel
must be used. She said 1t was not patri-
otto to use potato flour. as that is made
In Sweden and has to be shipped to this
country so It will not affect the surplus
crop more.
She explained about the proper prepare
ton of potatoes. saying that baking pota-
toes was more satisfactory than boiling
and advised baking In an excessively
hot oven. She said that peeling q potato
very thin saved in quality and nutritive
value. and said that potatoes should be
spl the fiat way.
She advised the women not to sal,
water while cooking potatoes. unless they
could not be sailed later, as in cubed
potatoes. In making sponge cake. Misi
Terrill advised the use of more lemon
Juice to hide the starchy taste.
In speaking of the value of potatoes ir
the diet. Miss Terrill said that one potato
would neutralize the acid produced by
two helpings of meat. and that people
had been known to live for 800 days or
nothing but potatoes. A medium sliced
potato Is equal In nutritive value to two
slices of bread. She riced some potatoes
and then made potato puffs. She sale
that when potatoes were being used tc
make different articles. less moisture
should be used.
The demonstration was the beginning
of a Statewide campaign to use up the
surplus potatoes before the new croy
arrives.
