Now is the time to buy potatoes in Guantity for storage. Lay in a winter supply while the price is <omparatively low. We experienced very high prices last spring, and no doubt they will be very expensive next spring. Potatoes may be kept in storaze rooms in the basement, which should be partitioned off from the furnace room, in outdoor storage cellars and in banks or pits. When stored in cellars the -potaPees may be put in barrels, boxes, baskets, crates, bins or on the floor, but must be protected from the light; when stored in banks or pits they are han- dled in the same way as beets, carrots, etc.; potatoes must be protected from freezing, and before winter sets in the pit must be covered with manure, straw or other material in addition to several inches of earth. It is a good plan to place the major portion of the crop in banke or pits and - small quantity in the storage room in e basement or in the outdoor storage cellar for immediate use. Swebt pota- toes can also be kept in pits or banks or in outdoor storage cellars, but a warm, dry place is preferable. They should be handled carefully as they are bruised easily. When only a few Children Cry FOR FLETCHER'S CASTORIA THERX = 30 zdverus:ng medium ia Cestern Conmecticut egtai to The Bule etin for business ts. bushels of sweet potatoes are to be stored they may be placed in the basement near the furnace or near a chimney in the attic. It is suggested that every housewife seek to use the tuber in as great a variety of ways as is possible. Comparing the energy value of po- tatoes with other common foods, it is found that one medium sized baked potato is approximately equal in value to one large egg, two slices of bread, one tablespoon butter, three-fourths cup cooked cereal, three medium sized peaches, 24 peanuts, four onions, one lean lamb chop. ‘When using rice or macaroni instead of potato, always serve a green succu- lent vegetable to help supply the need- ©d mineral matter. Prevent Looses in Cooking. In paring, much of valuable min- Do not pare~un- l 1. eral material is lost. til after cooking. 2. If potatoes are cut in small pieces a large surface is exposed to the water, thereby more readily dissolving valuable material which is lost in the water. Cook with as little division as possible, 3. Soak potatoes as little as possi- ble before cooking. If old potatoes must be soaked, leave the skins on. 4. Begin the cooking of potatoes in boiling water instead of cold. There is waste of materials for which you bave spent good -money if started in cold-water. Some Good Recipes for Cooking Pota- toes. Potatoes on the Half Shell—Bake potatoes as above. When done cut in halves, scoop out inside. Mash, add milk, season with fat, salt or pepper. Refill skins and brown in hot oven. Variations: Add o the hot potao, grated cheese, chopped beef or ham, finely chopped onion and green pepper. An extra e@g yolk or_white beaten will improve the dish. The potatoes may be stuffed early im the day and re- heated when needed. Potato Chowder—Six cups potatoes cut in quarter inch slices, two-inch cube of fat salt pork, four cups scalded milk, three teaspoons butter or substi- tute, salt and pepper. Cut pork in small pieces and try out. Add onion land cook five minutes. -Add potatoes to fat, then add %wo cups of boiling water. Cook until potatoes are soft. Add milk and heat to boiling. Seas@? and serve poured over crisp crackers. Hashed Browned Potatoss—Try out fat salt pork cut into small cubes. Add two cups of potatoes finely chopped, either raw, baked or boiled. Season with salt and pepper. Cook slowly in fat, and then browm on the bottom, turn_over like an omelet. Onion juice or chopped parsley may be added to the fat.

LIBERTY LOAN BONDS ° FOR CATHOLIC CITIZENS. Prompt and Liberal Subscriptions Urged by Bishop 'Nilan in Special Circular Letter—Suggestions for Combining Patriotism With Charity —Everyone to Help. . Yesterday in the Roman Catholic church was the nineteedth Sunday af- ter Pentecost, the epistle read in the masses for the day being Ephes. iv. 23 28, and the gospel Matt. xxvii. 1-14, the parable of ° the wedding feast. ending with Christ’s warning, “F or many are called, but few are chosen.” This was the text of a v brief in- the 7.30 mass in St. ick’s church, the congregation being reminded that all are called, but many rejected; and that Christians should see to it that they so0 live as to be warthy to receive the call.

As it was the Feast of the Rosary, special flowers adorned the marble memorial altar of the Blessed Virgin and the prayer in the collect contained the pe- tition: *“Grant, we beseech Thee, that meditating upon these mysteries in th. most holy rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary (that is, the chief events in the earthly life of Christ which the rosary commemorates) we )may both imitate what they contain and obtain what they promise.” Father Broderick read a lengthy let- ter from Rt. Rev. John J. Nilan ,bishop of the diocese, directing attention to the opening of the campaign by the government for the second Liberty loan in order to obtain a sufficient sum to provide the soldiers and sailors with what is needed to Insure victory and the greatly desired achievement of. blessed peace. 'Bishop Nilan urged Catholics to sub- scribe to the Liberty loan bomds_with all the liberality their means would 4llow, recommending prompt patriot- emergency. He went into the condi- tions of the subscription in detail, suggesting that persons of abundant means buy the bonds in a way not alone to ‘manifest patriotism but to combine with it charity of a high or- der, naming as a specific way of doing this, taking out as many bonds as possible in the name of St. Agnes’ Home corporation, thus eventually helping the dloceasn home for depenc dent infants at West Hartford, in which every congregation takes a liv ly interest. Since this home was es- tablished the Sisters of Mercy in infants and 100 mothers. Bishop Nilan also suggested fl‘l}\| Catholic organizations might take out Ponds for the same worthy cause, and in order to enable every person in the diocese to heip buy bonds, ne requested 1 coliection Sunday, Oct. 21st, in each church, reminding pastors that every child in the-Sunday schools was also to be encourage.ld to show patriotism and ism in thus aiding the nation in this | Washington Sq., Washington Building €~ |tee the very best PLUMBING WORK by charge of it have cared for over 800 |prices.
