The potato plans in brief are, that
each community shall ascertain how
many potatoes 1t can consume normally
and through joint meeting OF the
commercial club and the farm bu'
reaus, provide that the proper acreage
shall be planted and that the local
community shall agree to use local
potatoes first. ,'....... 49,. :
In order to make this plan work
able, 1t will be necessary to build ven
tilated storage cellars, according to
1ians which have been Thoroughly
worked out at Lake Forest, ILL.,, IN
which potatoes may be kept in good
condition up to the time-when new
potatoes come ON the market.
In localities where there may be q
larger production of potatoes than can
be consumed, the plan suggests that
potato -four and starch mills be erect
ed-at first on a small scale, grad.
ually growing as the business becomes
profitable.
The process Is not intricate. The
potatoes are first washed and stones
removed and then passed through
steam cooker into a taking machine
which consists Of two large steam.
heated rolls which toast the potatoes
into thin layer very much like corn
flakes.
These faxed poatoes are then
ground in a suitable mill Of which
there are several types. and the -four
thus obtained from the whole po-
tatoes containing all the vitamines,

indefinitely. sfE~

ing and settling, and great deal Of
the potato value is thus lost. There are
two successful potato mills now in
operation, one in Idaho Falls, and
the other in Aroostook County, Maine.
To our shame It must be said that
all the potato flour we have hereto
fore used has been imported from
Germany, where potatoes constitute
nearly half of the diet.

Even if the German soldiers who fought in Belgium do not admit the cruelties committed against the Belglans. 1t cannot be denied that at least 80 per cent of the cruelties known to the world to have been com. mitted in Belgium were only too true.
 A young soldier who lay next to me in the hospital told me that his com pany, during street fight in Liege. was given orders to kill everybody without discrimination. Systematical- ly. one house after another was set on fire. The inhabitants either fell in the flames or became the victims in the streets to the gun barrels of the Ger man kultur-bearers.
