POTATO VALUE In Bread Making Recognized— Potato Flour Mixed With Wheat. IS VERY DELICIOUS When Made Into BreadKeeps Moist Longer Than Ordinary Bread.

The pressure of war conditions has brought to light the value of potatoes in bread making, both in England and America. As an eeoniony in England potato flour was mixed with wheat and a peculiarly delicious bread resulted. In this country potato flour is not available to the average housewife. and the V. S. department of agriculture has therefore devised recipes for the making of bread with simple, plain boiled potatoes mixed I with the wheat flour. This bread is said to be not only a complete success from the economy standpoint. where potatoes are cheap and plentiful, but to supply an attractive novelty in the household menu, and a welcome variation from the usual bread monotony. It has a rich brown crust, is tender and elastic. and the flavor is preferred by many to the bread wholly of wheat. It contains more moisture than ordinary bread, and therefore has longer keeping quailties. For the making of potato bread, at the present time, it is advisable to use the early perishable potatoes. , since the later varieties are capable | of storage until spring. “Culls" also may be used.
