State College Hints For Farm Homes By RUTH CURRENT To get the most food value from your potatoes, cook them in their jackets. When you must peel, keep peelings thin. Prized minerals lie close beneath the surface. Peel potatoes just before you cook them?don't let them soak, or you lose minerals and vitamins. Store white potatoes in a cool, dark, airy place where they won't freeze Store sweet potatoes in a dry place where they will not chill. A wise mother considers quality as well as price when she buys clothes for her children. She learns to look for value both in the fabric used and in the workmanship. She asks these questions of even the smallest purchase of children's clothing- Is it comfortable? Is it be coming? Will it keep its shape? Is there minimum shrinkage? Will it wear well? Is the color fast to sun light? Is the color fast to washing? In workmanship, she looks for flat, smooth seams and strongly fin ished edges; deep hems and pleats to allow for growth; roomy arm holes to permit freedom of move ment; strain points reinforced or bartacked, pockets doubleistitched; a strong, wide binding, all in one piece, to make a sturdy placket for these garments with a drop seat; buttonholes firmly bound or stitch-1 ed very closely; medium-sized, round flat buttons sewed on securely; weight of the garment supported from the shoulder to prevent slip ping and irritation and to promote good posture; openings easy to man age, strongly finished and large en ough. Children's clothing should be light and bright?sunny yellows, sky blues and all the colors of the rainbow. Were Btuineat Visiters Here Messrs.
