SOME POTATO RECIPES

In preparing potatoes it Is good to
remember that most Of the alakltne
elements are close to the skin. When
ever possible potatoes should be
cooked Dr. prepared with the skins on.
II the peel Is to be removed first. II
should be as thin as possible, or just
scraped. BY cooking potatoes With
the skin on they have . better flavor
than Il peeled. They can be thor
cughly cooked by boiling In plain
water for about q half hour. The po-
tatoes can then be peeled and
mashed. The middle Of the potato
contains practically nothing but
starch and water with . small
amount Of protein.
Baking is the best way Of prepar-
ing a potato. In baking, unless the
skin Is oiled, some Of the outside skin
will be burnt and many Of the valu-
able minerals and vitamins will there.

Mashed potatoes r wholesome Il

are very .thinly peeled before boiling.
There Is q tendency to swallow
mashed potatoes too rapidly because
they are soft, and they should there

Fried potatoes cannot be recon-

The least injurious way OF frying
them is to fix them "a French fries.

Editorial Comment
Politics vs.. Common Sense
CThe Mandan Pioneer

N4uC NoUQd 1AOI1CCI
Congressman Sinclair was presented with an opponent
by the handful Of delegates from the third congressional
district at the Grand Forks convention Thursday when
by a vote Of 81 to 20 the third district representation
voted to launch q candidate hoping that with the entry
Of Towney into the race the Nonpartisan vote would be
so split between Sinclair and Townley as to give OPP
portunity to nominate q so-called Independent.
This decision having been reached by a narrow mar
gin-one vote would have changed the ~result-Staale
Hendrickson Of Divide county was nominated. OF the
popularity Of Mr.. Hendrickson, Of his stalwartism and
his abilities there can be no question, but his entry into
the field, the entry of any Independent candidate into
the field at this time when the district is threatened
with the possibility of being represented in congress by
that political mountebank Arthur Townley Is the rankest
kini of folly.
J. H. Sinclair has represented the third district for a
dozen years. True, he was indicted into office by Nom
partisans. There may have been occasions when his
vote in congress was timed to meet the approval Of Nom
~partisans, but once in office so far as his relations with
his constituent has been concerned he has been just
as willing to be of service to those Of an opposing faction
as to the Nonpartisans. In fact he has made a loyal SER
want Of the third district.
The Pioneer makes no apology in announcing that it
will use its influence to secure the reelection Of Con-
gresham Sinclair.
