Imperishable Potatoes.
From American Review Of Reviews.

The potatoes principal drawbacks are it's bulk, which increases
the transportation costs, and it's perishabity, which causes losses
from the field to the table unless particular care is given 10 lessen
these losses and to cut the costs Germany has resorted to drying and
The manufacture Of potato flour. We do not know the extent Of the
business now, but we know that before the war more than 800 100000
bushels Of the fatherlands potato crop were dried each year-and
that is in excess of two years production in this country. Part Of
1t was ground into a nutritious flour for human consumption.
Holland has one Of the largest plants now making flour from
potatoes. j. w. RobertsOn-Scott, in his book, Wartime and Peace
in Holland, " says this factory dries $4,000 bushels every "a hours.
A special variety Of potato is grown by the farmers who are the CO.
operative owners of this and other mills. This variety is particularly
high in starch and other solids and yields remarkable crops The av-
erage IN 1917 on $4,000 acres was 500 bushels to the acre, making a
total OF 39,5OO,OOO bushels. The general run of market potatoes in
Holland yield only a little more than half as much to the acre.
In these Dutch mills 1877 pounds of potatoes will make 20 pounds Of
first class flour, four and a half pounds Of second class and one pound
fiber contained aud in the color. The cost of making the flour is
about 3A cents a pound. From the special variety Of potato Holland
made 3~460O0,O0O pounds of flour of the first grade last year at .
cost of $73 on a long ton.
We now have six plants in the United States making natural
potato flour. About 10000 bushels of the 1917 crop were made
into dehydrated potatoes, natural flour, and potato starch. "Nat
ural" potato flour-made from the whole cooked potato, minus the
SKINS the only kind that should be made. 1t contains, in addition
to the highly digestible starch protein, mineral salts, albuminods and
the vtamInes so necessary for growth.
There is every reason to believe that natural potato flour will
price once the industry is established, and it can compete with wheat
flour up to 16 23 per cent of the loaf. Used in a larger proportion
it makes the bread wet and soggy. DR.. lie Cerc, of the bureau Of
chemistry of the United States department of agriculture, says tina.
potato flour at 8 cents a pound is equal to wheat flour at 6 cents. The
one-third greater value is Cue to the large content of mineral salts
DR.. LIE Cerc gives the following analysis as representing a fair com
parison of the two kinds of flour:

How Names Are Chained.

From the Brooklyn Daily Eagle.
"Who Was Who?" is the suggested title
Tor a new book to contain the names of
all persons who have changed their
names. A new publication will do that in
England. II the work is carried back far
enough it will be found that scarcely a
name has survived the wear and tear of
time. Some of the changes are inten-
tional, like our daily applications in court.
but most of them are hue to bad spoilers
or poor pronunciation and phonetic SPELL
ing to express the errors of ~pronuncia-
ton. Our Dutch ancestors had a habit
of cutting off everything that went down
to and including the Van" The name
"Burch" was originally "Birch," and
meant the man who lived by the birch
tree. 1t Is a curious on this
new book that the London newspaper
editor who is putting it out has juggled
his own name after the English custom
when taking q title.

CAN'T ALL Be COLLEGE MEN
F'tny Remark Credited by Andrew

Limited Education.

Andrew Carnegie, complimented one
DAY at his Scottish castle on his gifts
TO the cause Of education, said to a
young lady:
There's nothing so pathetic as the
self-made man who is conscious of his
lack of education. These poor fellows
seem to think that everybody is edu-
Gated but themselves.

Every khaki clad soldier I see,

For It's glorious manhood to do.
Since you wen away. every fold Of the

Has a message that's tender and true,
1t has always meant liberty, freedom and

And the soul Of you, shining, resplendent

We have known for a long time that there was something about
The potato that improved the flavor, consistency, and keeping quail
ties of bread. That is why potato water was considered essential
by every bread maker. Now we know there are even better reasons
economy and better nutrition.
American potato growers need to give their best attention to the
problems of growing the right varieties for flour and developing dry
ing plants and flour mills. There should be as good an opportunity
for a cooperative potato flour mill in a potato growing section as
there is for a cooperative creamery or cheese factory in a dairy
section.
This newly imported method of handling the potato crop will go
a long way toward putting one of the most unstable industries on a
solid foundation. 1t will make the spud one of the non-perishables
along with wheat, beans and canned foods.
