Grauel Potato Flour Because the nutritious part of po tatoes is composed largely of starch tooj large a quantity is not used in a well, planned dietary, for too much starch makes all kinds of digestive troubles, i However, combined with wheat flour sind other ingredients potatoes add en orgy producing elements to any diet.! Just now when flour and bread are costly this is important, for the price j of potatoes is in the reach of every| purse. The Swedish method of making po tato flour was recently contributed, by! Mrs. C. O. Barnard, in the "Rural New Yorker." She says, "The potatoes arej pared, cooked and squeezed through n sieve or * lard press onto a platter j where they lie loosely, allowing air to circulate through and around them. I They are then dried in an evaporator or an oven." "Country Woman" sends another recipe for the same product but morej complicated: "The raw peeled potatoes| are grated and then pressed through a! sieve and placed in clean wooden tubsj and covered with water. When, after several hours, the pulp settles the water is dark colored and is poured ofi" and renewed until it remains clear. Then the pulp must bo drained and broken into bits and dried, when it is to be broken, rolled and sifted. Some of the I lumps will be like grains of corn, some like rice and some as fine as pin heads.! Each size is to be put into a bag by itself.

The Department of Agriculture has been experimenting with potato flour j and says it may be added to wheat ' flour in proportions of twenty-live to 1 fifty per cent, but that when more than I thirty per cent, of potato flour is added ! the loaves become dark in color and ! coarse in texture. American housewives have always added boiled potatoes to bread sponge i and found the bread correspondingly I wholesome but it is not usual to add ' any considerable quantity of the veg etable. Potato flour has been imported for many years and this seems absurd when j we remember that each year we have j thousands of bushels remaining in stor- ' age. Perhaps the efforts of the "Rural New Yorker" to interest the public in a more general use of potatoes will open up a new industry that will lower our cost of living. Certainly put up in packages, "ready to use" in potato dumplings, or as "a cereal with hot cream and seasoning such "flakes" would, find a ready sale if the price was kept as low as it might be. Tn the meantime you will find that wheat flour is made more nutritious by following the suggestions of the cor- ' respondents above.

"It ta a very fine lock," cried old Conrad, with a note of pride In his voice. 1 began to feel some pride in the thing myself. "It is. Indeed." I said. "Try once more. Max."

Three successive blows j with all the might I had In my body j failed to shatter the lock, whereupon my choler rose to heights hitherto un '■ known, I being a very uiild mannered, placid persou and averse to anything favoring of the tempestuous. I de livered a savage and resounding thwack upon the broad oak panel of the door, regardless of the destructive ness that might attend the effort. If J any one had told me that | couldn't spliuter an oak board with a sledge hammer at a single blow I should have laughed in his face. Hut as it turned out In this case 1 not only failed to split rite panel, but broke off the aledge handle near the head, putting it whol ly out of com mission for the time be ing as well as stinging my hands so se verely that i doubled up with pain.

As we trudged nack to the lower balls, defeated, but none the less Im pressed by otir failure to devastate our stronghold, I was struck by the aw ful barrenness of the surroundings. There suddenly came over me the shocking realization—the "contents" of the castle, as set forth rather vaguely In the bill of sale, were uot what I had been led to consider tbem. "Herr Sciimick." said I. abruptly baiting my party in the center ot the hall, "what has become of the rugs that were here last week and where Is that pile or furniture we nad back yonder?" Old Conrad was not slow in answer ing. "The gentlemen called day before yesterday, mein herr, and took much away. They will return tomorrow for the remainder." "Gentlemen?" I gasped. "Remain der?" "The gentlemen to whom tfie herr count sold the rugs and chairs and chests and''— "What!" I roared Even I'oopen dyke jumped at this sudden exhibition of wrath. "Do you mean to tell me that these things have been sold and carried away without n*y knowledge or consent? I'll have the law"— Herr I'oopendyke intervened. "They had hills ot sale and orders for re moval or property dated several weeks prior to your purcnase, Mr. Smart. We had to let the articles go. iou surely remember my speaking to you about It" "I don't remember anything," I snap ped. which was the truth. "Why why, I bought everything that the cas tle contained! This Is robbery! What the dickens do you mean by"— Old Conrad held up bis bands as if expecting to pacify ma I sputtered out the rest of the sentence, which really amounted to nothing.

They have come here day after day, these furniture buyers, to take away the most priceless of our treasures, to sell them to the poor rlcb at twenty prices 1 could weep over the sacrifices.

"Do you menu to say that articles have been taken away from the castle since I came into possession?" "Many or them, sir Always with proper credentials, believe me. Acb, what a spendthrift he Is! And his poor wife! Acb. Oott, how she must suffer!

And for mere songs, mein berr— the cheapest of songs! 1—1" "Please don't weep now, Berr Bcbmlck," I made haste to exclaim, seeing lachrymose symptoms In his blear old eyes. Then I beenme firm once more. Tills Knaverv must ceasi or I'd know the reason why. "Thi unin who comes here to cart iwav so much as a single piece Is to he kicked nut. l>o yon understand?

"It Is a pity to destroy tine old pad locks"— "Well, you wuit and see,", said 1 grimly. His face beamed once more. "Acb, I forgot to say that there are padlocks on the other side of the door, just as on this side. It will be of no use to destroy these. The door still could not be forced. Meln Gott, bow thank ful I am to have remembered it in time!" "Confound yon. Schmick! I believe you actually want to keep me out of that part of the castle!" 1 exploded. The four of tbem protested manful ly. even Gretel. "I have a plan, sir." said Britton. "Why uot place a tall ladder iu the courtyard and crawl In through one of the windows?" "Splendid! That's what we'll do!" 1 cried enthusiastically. "And now lot's go to bed! We will breakfast at 8. Mrs. Schmick. The early bird catch es the worm, you know."
