She lives In Burrel, California. (Prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture.) Any woman can prepare excellent potato chips at home If she will ob- serve a few fundamental rules, says the United States Department of Agriculture. To make a good crisp chip she must first select mature potatoes, high In starch. Large or medium-sizeround, smooth potatoes with shallow eyes ore least wasteful to prepare and make the chips. Varieties of the Irish Cobbler and Green Mountain groups, according to locality, have given satisfactory results In respect to the quality and quantity of chips produced. New potatoes in the spring and summer do not make good chips. They should not be used before the skin sets. mt- Manufacturers who o d g long-handle- d Thanking you very kindly for your trouble.

The size and shape of the potato do not affect the cooking quality, but they influence the quantity and appearance of the chips. ' Essentials for Success. When a mechanical vegetable peeler Is used, round potatoes are less wasteful than long ones. Deep eyea cause waste, difficulty In paring, and make ragged-lookin- g A mechanical slices. sllcer Is preferable to knife slicing because It Is Important to have the ehips of uniform thinness, and each slice evenly cut. Otherwise the chips cook unevenly. After a study of various practices with regard to preparing and cooking the sliced potatoes. It was found that there waa no apparent advantage In the saltwater bath sometimes recommended. nor in the extra work Inbath followed volved In a by drying between towels. Cutting the potatoes Into even thin slices with an accurately adjusted vegetable sllcer, soaking them thoroughly In clear water after an Initial hath of cold running water, draining, and frying them fHt at a high hi a clean, temperature were found to be essential in producing crisp, chips. Cottonseed Oil Is Best. Many fats, Including lard, lard and suet mixture, lard-llk- e vegetable fats, cottonseed, corn, peanut and coconut oils, were experimented with for frying the chips. Olive oil was considered too expensive for ordinary use and was not tried. The most satisfactory mee cotdium was found to be a tonseed oil, which was clear, bland, and practically flavorless. Its initial cost was lowest and there was a minimum of waste In cooking. A comparison of chips fried in different fats demonstrated its superiority in behavior during cooking and in the flavor of the finished product. The lard and the lard-sue- t mixture that imparted a flavor or after-tast- e was unpleasant to some people and left a cloudy coating on the clt'ps that made them less attractive than chips with the clear yellow-browgloss re suiting from frying hi oil.

The best results are obtained when the sliced potato chips are washed In running cold water under a faucet for at least an hour and soaked In cold water several hours longer. The water In the pans should be changed until the last wash water Is practically free of sturch. The slices need not be dried before Immersion, but as much water as possible should be shaken off. When the oil reaches 210 degree C. (410 degrees F.) a basket of raw sliced potatoes Is lowered into the fat, and stirred constantly with a spoon. The object of the hot water bath sometimes recommended Is chiefly to coagulate the protein In the potatoes, and this result can be obtained equally well by beating the fat to a point just below smoking before the slices are put In. When the slices ave crisp and brown. In from three to five minutes, the frying basket Is ralsrd and drained, and the chips spread ou brown paper to dry. While stiil warm they should be sprinkled llghlly with salt. Chips prepared In this way should keep sweet for weeks Jn moderate temperatures. The oil should be reheated to 410 degrees F. after each batch (if chips Is removed. The best way t determine the temperature Is by idea ns of a thermometer. If chips are made frequently the oil should be renewed from time to time. The frying pan and basket should be deep rather than wida and made of iron or steel which is i.ot affected by high cooking temperatures. Tin or enamel-warpans are not safe to use.
