If Yon Raise Own Spuds You Too Are
Finding Annoying Number of Small Ones
By BLANCHE SPANN PEASE •
One of these days when the
spirit moves you, try baking po
tatoes in foil. You’ll like the re
sults. Let each person unfurl
the potato. .The aluminum foil
keeps the heat longer.
Line the broiler with foil.
When <he broiling is done you
can simpiy roll up the foil. Saves
lots of messy clean up jobs.
Don’t line your oven with foil.
It stops the heat circulation and
it is bad for the oven, too. Bake
in foil if you wish, but don’t put
in the bottom of the oven.
We have come now to the sea
son of the year when, if you raise
your own potatoes, there seams
to be an annoying number of
small ones. (Of course, this could
not possibly be because you have
all ready picked out the big ones
to peel.) Anyway, cook a lot of
small ones now and then in their
jackets and run them through the
potato ricer. The potato pulp
goes through and the skins stay
in the ricer.
I like to cook a kettle full of
potatoes with the jackets, peel
them, and store covered in the
refrigerator. They are ready for
potato salad, for potatoes to fry
in bacon grease, to put in a
cassero'e diced with a cheese
sauce for a quick warm up. and
so on. Saves lime, labor, fuel
and yourself.
Potatoes like to be stored
where there is no light. Did you
know that? If they are not, they
get green spots in them that are
harmful to eat. Cut off the green
ish part and eat the rest, if that
happens. Cover stored potatoes
well and they won’t get green
spots in them.
Sprouted potatoes should be
peeled. Don’t eat the sprouts
They, too, are harmful, same as
the green spots in potatoes.

Mrs. H. J., of O’Neill, wins our .
three-months subscription. i
Dear Blanche:
Guess I’ll busy myself by writ- i
ing you. Time seems to go bo
slow these days. I have said to
myself many times that I’m go
| ing to write you and try for the
j subscription to The Frontier, but
i never get the job done. I'm go
ing to get this written today.
We have been having a con
siderably nice winter, which
helps a million. Soon, will be
tu.T.e for garuen, baby chicks and
many more jobs
I enjoy reading your column
in The Frontier very much.
Have tried many of the recipes,
and have found most of them to
be very good.
Am going to enclose with my
letter a very delicious lemon pie
recipe, which we all really go for.
NEVER FAIL LEMON PIE
Combine in a saucepan, IV*
cups sugar, IV4 cups cold water,
4 tablespoons flour, Ya teaspoon
salt, 3 egg yolks. Cook this till
it becomes thick, remove from
fire, add 2 tablespoons butter,
and the rind and juice of 1 aver
age size lemon. Put in a baked
pie shell, cover with meringue
and place in oven and brown.
Believe I have made this long
enough so will bring it to a close
and see if it brings me anv lurk.

Recipe of the Week —
SALMON BACON PATS
One cup soft bread crumbs, 1
egg, slightly beaten, !&cup juice
from can of salmon, 1 tablespoon
scraped onion, 2 tablespoons
chopped parsley, % teaspoon salt,
dash of pepper, sage, 4 cups (2
lbs.) canned salmon, 6 slices ba
con.
Combine the bread crumbs and
salmon juice. Add onion, parsley,
seasonings. Mix with flaked sal
mon. Shape 6 patties, wrap slice
of bacon around each, fasten with
toothpick. Bake in a hot oven of
450 F. 15 minutes, until bacon is
crisp. Remove from oven and ar
range on platter around nest of
carrots. Serves six.
Regardless of whether you be
long to a faith which calls for
eating fish or a meat substitute
one day a week and on fast days
during lent, you should eat sal
mon in some form once a week,
just as you should eat liver once
a week. Salmon is rich in foods
which your body needs. And it
is an economical food, too, if you
buy canned salmon.
SAYS SANDHILL 8AL
It is not the original cost of
matching the Joneses, it’s the up
keep that keeps you going down '
hill.
Life is a pretty sour dish with
out the gift of laughter and the
leavening of doing some of the
things you enjoy doing.

Give the little lady a/ hand
This ad is addressed to husbands —
husbands who’ve yearned for the
thrill of sitting behind a broad hood
packed with horsepower—and the pride
of rolling down the street in a car that
tells the world, “Here’s a man who
knows the finest thing on wheels.”
But husbands have wives. And wives
have been known to say, ‘‘No big cars
for me. They’re too hard to handle.”
Well, we have an answer for that one.
It’s a Roadmaster with Buick’s new
Power Steering.! And Power Steering
takes over any time the steering gets
tough—works like a helping hand—
reduces the effort of turning the wheel
of a car at a standstill to about the same
effort it takes to pick up a mink coat.
But out on the open highway—with a
» clear straight stretch before you—
your hands still have command of the
wheel—you can feel that sure, firm, easy
and eager responsiveness that’s a part
of the fun of driving.
The rest of the fun is in something else
that’s new this year—the highest horse
power that a Buick Fireball Engine has
ever delivered — and an Airpower
carburetor that lets loose an extra
reserve of power when needed, and still
adds extra miles to your cruising range
on each tankful of gas.
So we suggest a family demonstration.
'Ybu’ll both like the hushed and restful
silence of this superbly able traveler.
\ou’ll like the harmonious beauty of its
interior, and the deep and luxurious
softness of its seats.
Ym’ll like the velvet-gloved grip of its
Wide-Band brakes, and the most capa
cious trunk in Buick history.
You’ll like the smooth surge of Dynaflow
Drive, and you’ll like-but why waste
time talking, when you could be finding
out more than we can ever tell you?
How about making a date to do that
right now?
Equipment, aeeeeeoriee, trim and modele are eukfeet to thanqe with,
out notice. White eidewaUe optional at eatra coot when aeailaUt.
] Optional at extra coat on Roadmoeter only.
