AGE No Drawback to Service.

"There is no such thing as re
tired patriot One Is never too old
to render some service to ones cOun-
try"
This sentiment of Mrs. Richard
Flower. ninety-four years old, has i'm
PEELED her to become one of the lead
ing Red Cross workers of New Orleans.
Since the declaration of war she has
knitted q dozen sweaters, eight pairs
of socks and many helmets, mufflers
and washcloths. The Red Cross au-
thorities highly praise Mrs. Flowers
industry and say that her example has
been invaluable. She not only works
every day at the production of Red
Cross articles, but also keeps abreast
of the war news in the papers. She
has assisted in several entertainments
for the benefit of the Red Cross.
Mrs. Flower has reared a family of
five sons and three daughters. One of
her sons was the late Mayor Flower
Of New Orleans.

Old Warships Put to Good Use.

In the days before the war, one of
the features of Ryde, Isle of Wight,
was the fleet of obsolete warshipS
which rode mournfully at anchor to
the west of the pier. There was a
curious air of desOlation about them
with their gunboat gray showing rust
everywhere, their truncated masts,
cleared decks, and blackened brasses.
AS the ferry steamed out of Ports
mouth, some four miles away across
the SOlept, they had a warlike appear
ance enough, but the nearer one came
to them the more one saw that their
fighting days were over.
But We're they? May there not have
been amongst them some of the old
cruisers which Joined in the now IA
nous run for Zeebrugge the other
night? Perhaps they are Ryde boats
which now lie gloriously at the bottom
of the sea, blocking the way to the
'nests of Bruges."

able attraction at the Colonial Theatre

Potatoes "Over There"

One of Frances greatest losses in
the enemy's spring offensive has been
$4,000 acres of land sown with pota-
toes by her soldiers behind the line
Germany announces this capture to
the German people with as much &C
claim as if each one of these acres had
been a gun. for Germany does not
have to be told the value of potatoes.
She. herself, has reduced potato pro-
duction 10 such science that with
less than one-tenth of our area she
produces five times as many potatoes
as we do in the United States,
Nevertheless, with this immense po-
tato supply, she doles out her potatoes
TO her people, afraid that they will
waste this valuable vegetable if she
allows them to have too many at
time on hand.
Last winter in Berlin the potato ra-
ton per week per capita was Id.
l01a ounces. Until the possibility of
getting rich wheat supplies from Rus
STA opened up, there was considerable
agitation throughout Germany for a
larger potato ration, for the German
Hausfrau knew if she could put plenty
OF potatoes on her table her family
would never miss the lack of bread.
England. too. has learned that she
cannot afford to slight this nourishing,
if unbeautiful vegetable. Perhaps it's
the Irish who have taught her that
with plenty of potatoes she can bear
her lack of meat and wheat cheer
fully,
So England. like Uncle Sam, is do
ing all she can to encourage a greater
production of potatoes next year and
TO teach her people TO eat this vege-
table freely in place of bread.
In recent potato bulletin gotten
out by the English Food Ministry, the
following suggestion and recipes are
given to the patriotic English house
wife. They are equally applicable,
however, to American housewives who
are periodically making potatoes
figure more prominently on their ia
bles than ever before in order to do
with less bread.
Potatoes" this English potato bull
letin warns, should never be peeled
before cooking. Everyone who peels a
thing in wasting the nations food, and
is directly helping the U-boats to
starve us out.
The best part of the potato lies
next to the skin, and even thin peel
ing wastes to ounces in every
pounds. Potatoes should, therefore
Except for such dishes as Irish stew,
always be boiled in their skins. If
baked in their jackets. layer of the
best part sticks to the skin, and is
usually wasted"
The bulletin also urges the Eng
lish housewife who must put up
lunches for her children or husband
TO eat away from home to use cold
cooked potatoes in her sandwiches in
place of bread.
The following is one of the most
popular recipes taken from this Eng
lish potato bulletin:
Devonshire Drop Cakes-1h lbs.
cold cooked potatoes, a pint milk, 2
or margarine, OF. grated cheese, salt
and pepper.
Mash the potatoes and mix in the
cheese. Put the margarine and milk
into a sauce pan and heat. Then mix
thoroughly with the potatoes. Season
with salt and pepper, and place large
spoonfuls of the mixture in separate
piles, like drop cakes on a creased tin.
Bake in a quick oven 10 to Is minutes,

"MoonIiohter" introduced.

A new type of garden laborer, known
as the "moonlighter," has appeared in
London (Eng) suburban country dis
tricts, owing TO the shortage of general
laborers. The moonlighter is work
man who is employed all day, but who
is willing to earn little extra money
by working during the moonlight
nights in the gardens and allotments.
His is the only sort of labor that the
suburbanite can now employ in the
digging and sowing of the vegetable
plot which every suburban householder
regards as an essential part of his
household.

FLOUR PURCHASES
AGAIN CUT DOWN

The amount of flour which NAV
be purchased by any one family at the
present time does not exceed "a IL
pounds for people living in town and
for those living on farms not more than
SO pounds may be purchased at one
time. No more than a 80 days supply
may be kept on hand and the 80 days
supply is apportioned at the rate of 6
pounds to each person per month.
This raises the question as to what
is to be done with the flour that the
farmers stored up last winter at the time
that the order was first issued for max
ing OF the coarser flour. In Ramsey
County and other places the Food Ad-
min1istrators have been sending out
investigators to discover when there
are amounts of -four or other provisions
stored up beyond that allowed by the
regulations. Wherever over-stocks were
found the owners were instructed to
return them to their dealers and the
Eagle Mill reports that they have had
considerable flour returned in this way
to their western elevators.
