Prices are most favorable to the
food shopper when supplies are
heavy as they are now. But, be
careful when buying white po
tatoes. Potatoes of varying
qualities or grades are found in
markets all over the state. The
indicative grade is good for the
time the product was so rated
and may change before the shop
per makes a selection. To be
doubly sure of the potato
quality—
Select Potatoes That
—Are clean, firm, with un
broken skins
—Are free from cuts, cracks
and bruises
—Have shallow eyes
—Are well-shaped.
Medium sized potatoes are
preferred by many shoppers be-,
cause
—One makes an average serv
ing
—There is less waste in peel
ing than smaller size po
tatoes
—Cooking time is less than
for larger ones when boiled
whole.
Two Interesting Questions andj
THE PERQUIMANS WEEKLY, HERTFORD, NORTH CAROLINA. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 3. 1960.
Answers:
| Question: What causes the
, green color on some of the po
tatoes in the market? Are
these green portions all right
to use?
Answer: The green color on
potatoes is caused by exposure
to sun or light and can be pre
vented by keeping potatoes in a
dark place. The green portions
of potatoes should be discarded,
as they have a bitter flavor and
not recommended for eating.
Question: Is it all right to eat
sprouted potatoes?
Yes, as long as the sprouts are
removed.
Summer Clothing
Should Be Cleaned
Prior To Storage
The passing of Indian Slim
mer marks the end of season
for lighter clothing in many
parts of the country. Homemak- 1
ers who are bringing out those
winter clothes should take par-j
ticular pains when they store
away their summer things if
they want them in good condi
tion next summer.
So advises American Institute
of Laundering, research and ed
ucation center for the profession
al laundry industry. Laboratory
technicians at the Joliet, Illinofe,
laundering headquarters warn
that summer weight blankets
and jackets aren’t the only
things that require special care
when storing. Woolens should
be laundered, put in moth cry
stals, and sealed for the winter.
Cottons and synthetic materials
should be laundered and care
fully packed.
Laundering before fall stor
age is especially important be
cause of the stains, soil, and
perspiration that are so much a
part of summer activities may
otherwise become “set” in the
fabric. These “set” blemishes
are nearly impossible to remove
when the garment is needed at
the next warm season. Body oil
stains compound the difficulty,
for they pick up dust in storage
if not covered.
When sent to the laundry,
summer clothes are returned
cleaned, pressed. If they are
then packed away in closed con
tainers, thev will be ready for
wearing when needed.
Summer clothing should be
stored in a dry place to avoid
mildew damage. And they
should be packed loosely, so
that there will be fewer wrin-
I kies when time comes for wear
ing them again, say the Insti
tute technicians.

HORSEPOWER THAT MAKES SENSE
FOUR CYLINDERS TO SAVE GASI
THE NEW SWEET RUNNING
TROPHY 4 ENGINE
FROM PONTIAC PERFORMANCE SPECIALISTS!
The new Trophy 4 engine puts real
performance in the Tempest and
cuts gasoline bills to boot. This new
baby is eager to move out for
safe passing. Holds the going pace
on any expressway. Breezes up steep
hills in high gear. 11158 new 195 cubic
inch displacement, 45° inclined, short
stroke, 4 cylinder engine has a wide
range of h.p. ratings. With single
barrel carburetor and stick shift:
110 h.p. (regular gas) or 120 h.p.
(premium gas). With the same car
buretor and extra cost automatic
shift: 130 h.p. (regular gas) or 140
h.p. (premium gas). Want still more?
Order the 4-barrel carburetor with
the automatic and jump the output
to 155 h.p. (Or buy the 155 h.p.
aluminum V-8 option.)
Rear axle drive and transmission are
combined (a trans-axle). Flexible
shaft from front engine delivers
smooth, quiet power. Perfect 50-50
balance gives a flat, level ride that
no other new-size car can touch.
Rides like the big ones! An
equal load on every wheel. Steering
is light and easy! Better braking
and improved traction in snow, sand
or mud! Independent sus
pension at all wheels. Swing
axles keep Tempest on an even keel
over bumps, ruts, dips and holes!
112" wheelbase. Long enough for
a cradled ride—short enough to
handle like a sports car. Big 15 *
wheels. Good road clearance. Long
tire life. (13' compact tires turn at
least 4900 more times to go 100
miles.) Seats six men. The big
transmission hump is gone. The
middle man can stretch out size 12
brogans! Wide-Track, too! The
track is up to 3 inches wider than
most compacts. Lees lean. Less
sway. Better cornering. Pontiac
dealers have it—and they
have it now! A four-door sedan
... a station wagon... a full line-up
of accessories. Try the Tempest out
for an hour— you'll want in for
keeps! It's priced with the compacts!
