How to Cook Potatoes.=There is re sac* in rossl.l

in a hundred kttows how to roast them properly.
Still few'et know ho ,v to boil potatoes, simple as
the piocess is deemed. We love a good potato,
and all our readers, sensible linen as they are, nil
doubt like the triune tuber; but how often do we
ace the very best potatoes brought en the table,
heavy drenched, saturated with water, and utterly
unfit for 'eating. To prtvent such atrocities itA

devoted to teaching the art of plkitting and cook,:

Wash them Clean and scrape the skin off, •
One water never is enough,
Take the eyek and nubbins thin off,
And 061 little speck that's rough.
Lo not IA them lie in water. -
