Potato Flour Made at Home.

Wheat flour must be saved and
many of the substitute fours are high
priced. You can make potato flour at
home and it is just as useful wheat
substitute as many of the more ex-
pensive commercial fiours.
In addition to saving flour it saves
potatoes that might otherwise be
The Pulaskian., 1918-07-05

wasted. Potatoes do not keep indet-
nitely, and annually many old potatoes
are allowed to sprout in the cellars
and are ultimately thrown away. The
potato flour which can be made from
them keeps well, so by taking time by
the forelock and making the surplus
stock of old potatoes into flour before
they spoil you avoid the waste of valu-
able food material.
How to Make Potato Flour.
It is easy to make the potato flour.
Wash the potatoes, boil until tender,
and remove the skins. Force, while
still hot, through a potato ricer on to
drying trays. These trays may be
made of Stats of wood covered with
cloth or wire screening held in wooden
frames; indeed, any tray that will let
the air circulate freely from under
meath as well as around the tray may
be used. Clean cheesecloth should be
spread over it before rieing the p0ta-
toes on the tray. Place the loaded
trays in the blast of air from an cleo
trio fan, if you have one, or in warm
oven with the door ajar. When COM
pletely dry, grind to the desired fine
ness in q hand mill such as is found In
many homes for grinding homegrown
grain. A coffee mill may be used, or q
food chopper, using the nut knife. If
these do not grind fine enough, rolling
with a rolling pin and Sitting several
times will help.
1t takes three pounds of unpeeied
potatoes to make a little over half a
pound of potato flour, so If you have
to buy potatoes you should reckon
costs carefully. If you have potatoes
that will go to waste otherwise, save
them in the form of potato flour.
You can use either the commercial
potato flour or the homemade product
to greatly reduce the use of wheat
flour in cakes, cookies and breads.
A few recipes for the use Of potato
flour are given below.

Cleanliness in Gamma.

The first essential for com
plete sterilization with the use
of either the hot-water Gamer
or the steam-pressure outfit,
says the United States depart
ment Of agriculture, Is absolute
cleanliness in surroundings and
in all utensils used in canning.
Tables should be well cleaned
and may be covered with white
oilcloth. Garbage cans must be
provided to hold Feelings and
other refuse. To allow these to
fall upon the ground to decay
near the place of canning will
result in production of spores
which will rise in dust and i'm

TO ALL METHODISTS

We have undergone many difficult ties during this conference year, but the one uppermost in our minds and the one that seems the most awful to us is the epidemc of Spanish h. fluenza which has just swept over our city, visiting most every home, and in several instances taken away some of our loved ones. These hours of sorrow, awful as they are, should bring us closer to God and His church.
 The quarantine has been raised and services at the churches will be re- stunned tomorrow. Very little money has been turned in to the church treasurer during the period of quaran- tine and we have fallen behind. A statement of the finances of the church will be given you Sunday
 Members that have not yet paid their assessment for this year and those who have pledged to pay and not paid are asked to bring or send it in Sunday Don't wait to be seen by some member of the board. We are going over the top and must have the support of the entire membership of the church. We are depending on you. We have just one week before con ference.

 Walnut Grove this afternoon at three o'clock, conducted by his pastor,

He was an unusually fine business young man, hard working, steady and honor it. self, and in his taking away, Jackson county has lost one of her splendid young men, in the prime of his young manhood and one it will be hard to replace.

The Germans have been given un- til Monday to accept the allies arm istice terms They have the oppor- tuity of surrendering completely, and their failure to do so means that the allies will continue their offensive, which is destined to utterly crush the German military machine and reign of terror. The reply from Germany may come today. The kaiser has again refused to abdicate. He says he cannot hand Germany over to the United States and her allies. He says anarchy would result.

"What our fighting boys need Is In

declared Col. Barker. "You will rep

ideals and standards of the Jewish
faith, and 1t is up to you above all
things to be consistent In your re-

the secret of our own success. II you

HANDBAG and sl52
BOTH DISAPPEAR
Bag Left on Trolley Fur
nishes Mysterious Case

ing every effort 10 locate a handbag
which was left on a Darby northbound

urday afternoon and which contained

in the search but so far the only clue
the police have 10 work on Is the fact
that tho handbag was last seen on the
steps OF a house at Fourteenth and
Market streets.
The handbag was found on a scat in
the car shortly after a woman passen-
ger left the trolley at Tenth street. The
conductor who found Il says he saw the
woman who had left II on the seat run
ming after his car. Instead Of holding
his car until she reached II. the con-
ductor allowed the car TO continue TO
Fourteenth street where he stopped the
car and gave the bag with the
money to a woman who was standing
on the corner. The conductor asked
This woman 10 give the bag 10 the
woman who was running after the car.
The woman 10 whom the conductor
passed the bag was Mrs. Gottlieb Horn
ing OF No. 100 East Fourteenth street
who was waiting for a Shelpot Park
car, and when II came along ~nd no
one had asked her for the bag she laid
II on the steps OF house at the cor
ner

money has disappeared. The woman
who owned u. is stopping at the Hotel

had left the bag and passed Mrs. Horn
ing, not knowing that she was holding

and the conductor then explained what
he had done with II.

partner 20 the mixup called at the po-
lice station yesterday and told OF what
she knew of the matter.

Responding b a letter Of inquiry from
Senator Simmons, who asked what in
terpretation might be placed on the
peace article in question:
Removal Of all economic barriers and

conditions among nations. etc" the

some nations that did not apply 10
others"
Weapons Of economic discipline, he
said, should be left 10 the league OF
