port of the potato, for like corn, it Is native of this continent and is as thoroughly American as the American Indian. When it is realized that the potato is one of the chief foods now sustaining Germany and that the other European countries are largely de- pendent upon it it's importance in the War may readily be seen. Yet the potato was not known abroad until the end of the sixteenth century when both the English and Spanish intro duced it from their American colonies.
 Americans first realized how i'm portant a part in their daily food the potato played when last year a scar city of this vegetable drove it's prices to prohibitive heights. The result of those sky high prices still has it's eff
 feet this season. Then the spring came, everyone planted potatoes. The farmer was particularly urged to lay
 out his land in potatoes as apatrietic
 duty Accordingly, although the aver age yield per acre was not large, there
 was an abundance of potatoes produe
 ed which have not been sold
 The farmer had to pay high prices for his seed. 1t was difficult to ob- tain labor for tending and digging the crop and what labor he did procure cost him two or three times as much , as ordinarily. A large item of expense was the fertilizer which has advanced 1 in price because the acids it contains are being used for intuition making. As a result, many a farmer who is selling his potatoes for about one dol ] lar bushel. claims he is not making more than he did several years agC

 Resolved, That the sum of one thousand five hundred dollars be and hereby is appropriated foy the use of the said Norwich War Bureau; said sum to be paid to the treasurer of said war bureau from time to time as 1t may be called for by written orders signed by the chairman of the said war bureau. The said war bureau to keep an accurate account of all it's re- ceipts and expenditures and to sub- init a full report of the same to this town on or before the date of, the next annual town meeting. at which time the treasurer of the said war bu- reau shall pay over to the treasurer of this town all sums of money which he may then have remaining and un- expended in his hands as such treas urer.
 Speaking in behalf of the motion. Mir. Macpherson said that he was convinced that there is one thing of vital importance equally with the fur nishing of machine guns, airplanes and war apparatus and equipment and that was to preserve the morale of uG- troops in France. It is the pur- pose of the work of the war bureau to keep up this morale by having the soldier know that his dear ones at home are being taken care. It seems that the citizens cannot fail to see that the war bureau is doing this work. There are essential needs in the homes of families of soldiers that have been supplied through the war bureau, and if the full particulars could be mentioned. would convince every citizen of the vital need of this fund. In the hands of the men who are at the head of the war bureau there is assurance that these funds will not be wasted or misspent.

encoufaged to plant potatoes next
 year by consumption of the crop they
 have produced instead of having them
 rot in their barns, or left to be fed
 to the hogs.
 Although the potato is a native
 vegetable, the American per capita
 consumption is very low. averaging
 only about one-half that of Europe
 This is probably largely due to the
 fact that bread has always been high priced abroad and low here. This higher price of bread in this country will probably make the people turn more to potatoes.
 At time when the world is so in need of food it would be criminal to l waste anything so important as the potato. It becomes the duty of Am ericans to eat up their potatoes. While approximately three e-fourths ] of the potato is water. it still contains enough valuable substance to entitie l it to a first place among foods. A small potato of from three to four 1 ounces supplies as much starch as a l arge slice of wheatbread, but not as | much protein. The more potatoes that l are eaten, the less wheat bread is l needed. In making ordinary bread and l rolls, potatoes can be substituted foI l 4beut one-fourth of the wheat flour.

HELP WIN WAR
 BY EATING POTATOES
Advice of Food Administrator ScoviIIc
 In Statement Issued Wednesday.

''By eating potatoes instead of wheat the people of Connecticut can help win the war as well as by purchasing Liberty Bonds and contributing to the Red Cross" said Administrator Robert Seoville Wednesday, regarding the na- tion@wide potato campaign.
 'fThe situation, in brief, is this. We have not enough wheat for our Allies and ourselves. We have an abund- anee of potatoes, an excess of go, ,000, 900 bushels over normal times. If we are to win this war the Allies must have wheat. The potato cannot quite come up to wheat in food val. e but it does come about as close to taking the place of wheat as any other food. Therefore, by eating potatoes we can save wheaN for the Allies Here in Connecticut we have a surplus of po- tatoes sufficient to supply every fam fly with one bushel.
