No Day Should
BeComp|ete
Without Spuds
Here's Some
Points To Keep
Their Vitamins

If YOU aren't slimming, you're sure
to say that no day is complete With
out potatoes. No matter what some
of us say the loWly spud is lmpor-
tant especially in the low-cost nu-
tritiolls meals because OF the iron
content and the vitamin c. value.
Because the potato is taken for
granted it suffers ever so much Dy
being served day after day III mono
tonous ways. The potato Is a versa
tile vegetable that can be prepared
in a variety of cooking ways that
will always have appetite appeal
And now just few pointers TO
remind YOU of ways TO conserve the
minerals and vitamins in potatoes.
Potatoes should not be peeled and
left in water a long time before
cooking. It is better to cook potatoes
in their jackets and then peel them
before dicing or mashing. Potato
water should be put into soups. gra-
vieS, SteWS and rolls.
Here are some new potato recipes.
I hope you will try every one.
Potato and Olive Casserole 49,.
One quart thinly sliced raw potatoes,
one green pepper, chopped, one and
one half cups water, three table
spoons butter, melted, one table
spoon flour, one teaspoon salt, two
thirds cup shreaded cheese, one cup

fourth cup soft bread crumbs, eight
stuffed olives, sliced.
Cooked potatoes, pepper and wa
ter about fifteen minutes or until
potatoes are tender and liquid has
evaporated. Put vegetables in one
and one half quart shallow baking
dish. Blend flour and salt with one
! tablespoon butter, add cheese.
Cook slowly until cheese melts. Add
milk and stir until sauce thickens
slightly. Add pimento. Pour sauce
over potatoes. Sprinkle with crumbs
combined with remaining melted
butter. Bake in moderate oven for
Is minutes or until crumbs are
brown.
| Potato Pancakes Two large raw
potatoes, one pound, one tablespoon
grated onion, two eggs, unbeaten,
two tablespoons flour, one and one
half teaspoons salt speck pepper,

then CRATE them on a fine crater.

and seaSonings. Drop from a table
spoon into one fourth inch hot fat
in a skillet, spreading each cake
with the back of spoon until it
is thin. Saute to deep golden
brown on both sides. Drain on paper
toweling. The pancakes must be
cooked Immediately after preparing
as the potato mixture darkens if
! it stands.

 The method of beating the sub marine menace was d5scoVered in ,hc first World War.

 Knowing then how to beat the submarines, the Navy has begun to put this system into effect on this side of the Atlantic Ocean. The reason why such naval con- voys were lacking for merchant shipping was du to lack of destroyers and patrol ships.

Just as fast as fighting ships are com pleted, they are put into ser vice. When enough of them have been completed, the submarine will find lean pickings off the coastal waters of the Western Hemisphere.
