it has become so DODular that the bulk of the crop now produced in New Jersey is Jersey Orange. "Of course," continued Mrs Jones, "there are those folk who still prefer the mealy-type of sweet potato. They should buy the Yellow Jersey. It has firm dry flesh. Some describe its delectable flavor as chestnut-like.

"In addition to variety, there are some other points to keep in mind as you buy look for sweet potatoes that are smooth, firm, bright and chunky.

scorn sweet potatoes which have been dyed," suggested Mrs. Jones. "Rub your fingers over the skin surface to see if the color rubs off "Dyed? Whoever heard tell of such a thine?" exclaimed Mrs. White. "It's done occasionally with perfectly harmless vegetable dye that makes a yellow sweet potato appear to have a red skin sup posedly, we consumers want red skinned potatoes!" said Mrs.

Jones.

What do I look for in the market, and tell me please, other than carbohydrates, do they have any desirable food value?" "That's a very comprehensive question," replied Mrs. Jones.

"Sit down and I'll tell you the story, and let's start with their food value since an understanding of that factor often determines their use In the menu. Since most folks are very calorie conscious these days, suppose we say first, that a medium-sized sweet potato has about 150 calories, but along with this calorie content are two nutrients Important to well-being, Vitamin and Vitamin C. The sweet potato is abundant In Vita min which you will recall is essential to the young for growth, but which, at all ages, helps main tain normal vision, especially in dim light. Vitamin A is also important in keeping the skin and linings of the nose, mouth, and inner organs In good condition. "In addition, sweet potatoes pro vide a good amount of Vitamin C.

A medium-sized potato, an average serving for most people, gives at least a third of the Vitamin needed for the day. For easy figuring, you may want to keep in mind that if the meals for the day include a medium-sized sweet po tato, and a half-cup of citrus fruit, the entire day's need for Vitamin Is taken care of by these two items." "But that statement doesn't ex actly fit into the one that Vitamin Is largely destroyed by heat," suggested Mrs. White. "You've learned your lesson well." acrced Mrs. Jones, "and I can only say that my authority for ing outside skin in preference to a scouring job! It's the inside of a sweet potato that counts." "But doesn't the dye penetrate flesh?" inquired Mrs.

White. "Apparently not," said Mrs. Jones, "but I will say it must add the distributor's cost which Is obviously passed on." "I can't imagine it being allowed," commented Mrs. White. "You buy many other foods that colored but there doesn't seem to be any logical reason for coloring the skin of a sweet po-tato.

'Bill will be delighted to hear that," commented Mrs. White. 'If he still feels doubtful, tell him he ought to try raw sweet potato sticks served as a relish like carrot sticks.

Their bright yellow color adds glamor to the menu as well as enriches It with vitamin A. Combined with pork which Is so plentiful and economical at the moment they offer particular appeal. Baked they go nicely in an oven meal; scalloped with apples, they serve as a vegetable; used in custard for pie, they make a delicious dessert.

Jones "But speaking of good ways to use sweet potatoes, have you tried the combination of sweet potatoes and cranberries? They are a delightful two-some, seasoned as they are with brown sugar, grated orange rind and cinnamon. This is the recipe: Escalloped Sweets and Cranberries Four large Jersey sweets, 1 cup wnoie cranoerry sauce, lA cup water, vi cup brown sugar, Vi tea spoon grated orange rind, tea spoon cinnamon, 1 tablespoon but ter or margarine.

Bring to a boil in small sauce pan and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the butter and stir 'til butter is melted. Pour sauce over sweets and bake, uncovered in 325 degrees F.

"But to get back to your mar keting problem, you said you wanted a moist sweet potato you should, therefore, look for the Jersey Orange variety. It is moist, sweet full-flavored potato with a deep orange color in the flesh and the skin. It is not identi cal with the southern yam, being not quite as moist, but it does have a delicious flavor and looks very attractive when cooked.
