16 THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1917. Mew Public Market '.Now- Opei V Bakerv in One of Large Departments in Basement When you attend the opening of the new Public Market on Sixteenth street yon will be attracted to a space on the north sid of the basement, where all sorts of tempting bakery products will be displayed by Ortman's New England bakery. This progressive institution has just remodeled and enlarged its main store at 214-216 North Sixteenth street, and Its faith in Omaha is further attested by the fact that it is opening a branch In the Public Market In the new branch, which will be opened on Saturday, cakes will be specialized, with all sorts of bakery goods in addition. There will be layer cakes, small tikes of all flavors and shapes and in fact every kind of cake for every kind of taste. Breads of all kinds will be handled, as well as pies and buns and cookies and doughnuts like mother used to make. Mr. Ortman said he believed his Public Market branch will soon be known throughout Omaha as the -headquarters for the best in cakes, and, as for bread, why, he said, every body knows what Ortman's New Eng. land bread is. Ortman'i New England bakery has earned an enviable reputation for the purity of its products. Their bakery is equipped with the most modern ap paratus and the products of this plant will be served at their Public Market location. Seeds and Flowers to Be , Sold at New Public Market "Seeds that grow?" Ever see that sign?" That means the Nebraska Seed company which will have base ment space in the new Public Mar ket. This company, among the fore most of its kind in the west, has felt the need of a centrally-located loca tion for its expanding business. , s The main store at 1613 Howard street, of course will be continued as usual with D. Dennis in charge, while H. O. Pomeroy will be in charge of the new location. In the new store cut flowers and plants will be carried in profusion. The tired business man may drop in on his way home and buy a boquet for his wife, or mother or sweetheart. An extensive line of plants and bulbs will be displayed. 'The "Nebseeco" line of seeds and poultry supplies also will be carried. Translated, ."Nebseeco" means "the best" The Nebraska Seed company, by the way, is one of the old reliable es tablishments of Omaha. It is known throughout Omaha's trading territory and those who are in charge look for ward with interest to the opening of their new store in the center of the busy shopping district. The convenience of the new location will commend itself to the large pa tronage which this company has built up and many new friends will be at tracted on account of the many inter esting shopping features in the New Public Market. v Fountain of Marble and Steel Is Market Feature One of the new and interesting features of the branch of Denise Barkalow, Inc., in the Public market, is the white Carasa marble which has been used extensively along the 67 foot space this company will use. This marble is made by a scientific pro cess, which renders the material ab- HOLIDAY GOODIES BRIGHTEN THE LOCAL MARKET STALLS Local vegetable and fruit markets are already beginning to show evi dence of the approaching holidays.

Gross "SSS Harriet Ruth' a Cooking Lesson Baked Potatoon Half Shell "Mother," said Harriet Ruth, one Saturday morning, "I have my prac ticing all done; can't I cook now?" "All right," said her mother, "what would you like to cook?" 'Something for lunch, beca...j Lil lian is coming over. I'd like to sur prise her. Just anything that you think I can make." Mother answered, "I had planned to have baked potatoes for lunch be cause they can bake while my loaf cake is in the oven. If you want to, you may bake the potatoes and turn them into "baked potatoes on the half shell." That is such an attractive dish to serve, and is very little work. Look through my recipe catalogue for the card." A few moments later Harriet Ruth was ready to cooky Her hands and nails were spotlessly clean, her apron was fastened securely and the desired recipe card was in her hand. Baked Potato on the Half Shell. 1 medium-sized potato for each person. 1 T. hot milk to each potato. 1 1. butter or butter substitute. 1 shake salt. Few grains of pepper. Wash the potato; place in a hot oven and bake about 45 minutes, or until potato will give when pressed between the thumb and first finger. Cut the potato in two lengthwise. scoop out contents into a bowl, then mash. Add other ingredients and beat until the mashed potato is very light. Pile it back lightly and roughly into the potato shells; return to the oven and brown. Time of browning, about IS minutes. "When shall I begin, mother? The potatoes take so long." "Plan to serve the potatoes at 12:30. Then they should be in the oven to brown at 12:15; and you must allow 13 minitts frtr tfi ma ck tti rr Tina -, U I X. tj IVI I I 111 g . lit tatoes should be baked at 12 o'clock; Co-Operation Readers are cordially invited to ask Miss Gross any questions about household economy upon which she may possibly give help ful advice: they are also invited to give suggestions from their expe rience that may be helpful to others meeting the same problems. hence they should be in the oven at 11:15. Just time if you get them now. When rou select the potatoes get them of uniform size so that they will bake in the same length of time, if you want them to be especially nice, Harriet Ruth, greaje the potatoes be fore baking. The greasing keeps the skins soft and gives them a better flavcr. Most of us like to eat the skins of baked potatoes, especially now when we are saving every bit of food." At 12 o'clock Harryet Ruth tested the potatoes, pressing tiie hot potato, between her thumb and first finger, but first she protected her hand from the heat with a heavy cloth. Just be fore the potatoes finished baking Harriet Ruth had heated the milk and butter in a- small pan. She followed directions carefully, cut the potatoes and scooped out the inner part into a bowl. After she had mashed the potatoes till not a tiny lump re mained and added the other ingredi ents,, mother cautioned, "Be sure to beat the potato thoroughly; that is the secret of light, fluffy mashed po tatoes thorough mashing and vig orous beating." Harriet Ruth found a teaspoon the best help in returning the mashed po tato to the shells and remembered the direction to pile the potato back lightly and roughly. "Why shouldn't I smooth down the potato, mother?" "Because the little irregularities make a better looking dish, and 'be sides, we want to keep the potato light, not crush it down. If this were Don't be misled by paying such high prices for meat when we are still selling our choice sirloin and round steak for 20c per pound.

The little girl arranged the pota toes carefully in a baking pan and put the baking pan 6n the top grate of the oven. When Lillian had arrived and lunch was ready the potatoes were just done. The whole surface was not browned, but the little irregularities were a tempting deep golden color. As a final touch, when Harriet Ruth removed the potatoes to a platter, she placed a small sprig of parsley on each half. "My!" said Lillian, as she tasted the potato, "did you make these all by yourself? 1 wish I could cook." Art Just a Grind Says Syncopated Troubadour .Carl Carroll, who wrote the music and lyrics of "Canary Cottage," now running at the Olympic, says the Chicago Tribune, is 23 years old and Jino hoot Hit), hoI in Mpu York CitV. where he built abungalow for himself and wife, atop one of the skyscrap ers, the "syncopated troubadour." Mr CarrnM is sprvinc his country in the aviation corps of the United States army. Besides "So Long Letty" , and "Canary Cottage," Mr. Carroll has several big song hits to his credit, including "Dreaming," "Sprin kle Me With Kisses," and "Isle h d'Amour." "Art is hard work," says Mn Car roll. "Inspiration exists, but a capa city for getting down to 'hard tacks' is more likely to produce results. The only way to write a song, in my opinion, is to stick to it. At least it's the only way that I can get results. Once started, I never quit until I am through. Three o'clock in the mornine looks iust the same to me as 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when there is music to be turned 1 out. Some folks may call it art, but7 to me it s just a hard grind. Funeral of Thomas Shea To Be Saturday Morning The funeral of Thomas Shea, found dead in his apartment Thurs day afternoon, will be held at 9 o'clock Saturday morning at St. Philomena's church. Burial will be in Holy Sepulcher cemetery. Mr. Shea has lived in Omaha for thirty years and duriirg the most of this time has pur sued his trade as saddler. Boasted that He Trifled With Some Other Women Bessie Ingrahm, suing LeRoy E. Ingralun for divorce ip district court, says he added insult' to injury by "trifling with other women and then coming home and bragging about it." They were married at Ord, Neb., Jan uary 24, 1910.
