POTATO BREAD
When the law providing the pur
chase of one-third as much siilt
stitutes as wheat flour went into
effect, the housewife found her
self f acinar a new and serious
omiition. Now that the amount
of sabstitute has been raised to
the half basis, she is indeed much
more concerned. She is findin''
t very hard to keep down Hu
ll se ot white . flour. 1 Ins recipe
for potato bread has been verv
helpful to many :
One quart boiled and mashed
potato; water in which cooked
cup sugar or syrup, 2 table
spoons salt; I yeast cake or 1
cup liquid yeast; 1 quart flour.
Boil potatoes, put thru rieer;
idd potato water anil cool to
luke-warni; add yeast, sugar, salt
and a little of the flour and stir
into a sponge. Let rise over
night. Add balance of the flour
in the morning, kneadinir it in
lowly and until dough is very
stiff. Let rise until double its
bulk. Mold into loaves.

Some xmart idea setting the
clock ahead an Iiotir after March
31, eh? Well, the farmer folks
are not worrying about that
clock. They get up sufficiently
early in the Summer time to get
in all the daylight work they
want. "Setting the clock ahead"
is just about as sensible as "set
ting it back." It makes little dif
ference about the daylight. If
one works Ins hours early or late,
the man who gels up curly can
get in enough time without 1111111-
eving with the clock dial. An
hour back and the sleenv-head
would say, in the morning "It's
too early." Jf set ahead, when
the proper time came to retire he
would say "It's too early to go
to bed." And there you arc. as
Dooley would say. If the bril
liant mind which conceived that
clock business were to get busy
and invent an nutomatie bed that
would throw its occupants out at
4-:30 A. M., and stay automat ie
ally closed, he would confer n
favor on humanity. As it is there
there's nothing to it.

For Trail or Pavement
The remarkably successful development of the
internal-gear drive in Denby trucks has done per
haps more to revolutionize truck design than any
other single factor.
But equally vital to the purchaser, equally impor
tant to the dealer, is the thoroughness of their
construction. The small bolt or nut has the same
great factor of safety for its work as the frame or
axle. Therefore, the performance of the truck is
never neutralized , by the failure of a so-called
minor part.
Denby trucks are repeaters. The Denby dealer
finds a volunteer salesman in every owner. Steady
increaae in sales makes necessary steady increase
in manufacturing facilities.
A strong company-a truck that's right a good
dealer. These are the three essentials that are
important to the user.
