Food Administration asks every housewife to use as many pota toes as possible, in order to save more wheat. Following are a few potato recipes that will help In this. Potato Soup. 2 cups hot diced or mashed pota toes 1 quart milk 2 slices onion 3 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons flour (rice or corn flour) 1 teaspoons salt Celery salt Pepper Cayenne 1 teaspoon chopped parsley Scald the milk with. the onion; re move the onion; add the milk slowly to the potatoes. Melt the butter; add to It the dry ingredients stir the mix ture until well blended, and add the liquid mixture, stirring constantly. Boil the soup for one minute, Btrain if necessary, add the parsley and ser ve it. Water saved from cooking cel ery is a good addition to potato soup. Two cups of tomato juice and 1-16 teaspoon of soda may be substituted for two cups milk. Stuffed Potatoes. Cut baked potatoes in half, removt the pulp, mash it and add enough milk for the usual consistency of mashed potatoes, and season with butter, salt and pepper. Fill the ca ses with this mixture, dot the tops with buttter, or brush them with milk and bake them from 8 to 10 minutes In a hot oven. Potatoes may be stuffed in the morning and reheat ed at noon or in the tvening for din ner. Variations: To the mashed pota toes before the cases are filled, may be added any one of a combination of the following: a. Beaten white of egg (1 egg to 3 medium sized potatoes) b. Grated cheese ( cup to 3 me dium sized potatoes) c. Chopped meat ( cup to 3 me dium sized potatoes) d. Chopped parsley (1 tablespoon to 3 medium sized potatoes) Potato Cookies. 2 cups sifted flour Vt teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons baking powder cup brown sugar 3 tablespoons shortening 1 egg well beaten 1 cup mashed potatoes Cream together the butter and su gar, and add the well beaten egg and the mashed potatoes (free from lumps).

E.V GOVER.VOR WEST. (Continued from page 1.) tion. With Stanfleld as senator nei ther West nor the Oregon Journal would control the United States Sen atorial delegation from Oregon, as they do today In a great measure, ow ing to the close ties between West, Chamberlain, McNary and the Jour nal. sianueM is tne Kind or a man In whom the Journal could inspire no terror and with whom the whole West-Journal crowd would have nu influence beyond that to which they would be entitled on the merits of anything they might propose. For Stanfleld Is a "he man." Unquestionably West's declaration will have a powerful influence in causing republicans to rally to Stan fleld. Most of the party leaders con cede that if nominated Stanfleld would run stronger against West than would McNary, as McNary is a colorless candidate, so much like. West and such a follower of West that the people generally would pre fer the real thing to the poor imita tion. With West's following in the republican party and all the register ed democrats voting for West, the only support McNary would have would be the remaining republicans who would place party above per sonal considerations and reluctantly vote for McNary simply to elect a re publican United States senator even if he was a republican of the West variety. It is notable that all over the state the Stanfleld supporters are jubilant over West's declaration, as they re gard It as a concession by the West-; McNary threes that Stanfleld is sure to get the republican nomination, j The possibility is hinted that should McNary be nominated by the republicans West would not be an aggressive candidate against him for tho election. This possibility is har ;lly in line with West's character, as a lighter, a man who keeps up a scrap Into which he enters. Yet it is known that in Washington right up to the present time West and Me Niiry are on the mutt Intimate 1 .ti mate terms. The possibility that West might "lay down" to McNary after the primaries is one that repub licans are talking over, and every time It is talked over it makes votes for Stanfleld. For tho bulk of the republicans want to take no chances either on West or West's candidate. Ever "Shop" for Shirt Comfort? If not, it's well worth trying. Because there is such a thing as true shirt comfort and it can be bought! The shirt you have on now does it feel "pully" across the shoulders? Do you feel like your collar was too high ? Are the sleeves a trifle long or perhaps a trifle short ? Yes.

The patterns are bright and "nifty" and every little detail is just right for appearance. That is to be expected certainly. But that un seen thing real comfort is built into these shirts. You cannot see it but you can feel it, the moment you put one on your back. Come here and buy one Beau Brummel Shirt just one. Wear it get the feel of a really perfect fitting shirt.
