If you want to be technical about it, very few people have eaten a yam because they are seldom found inNorth America. Often produce dealers call the orange-colored sweet potatoes "yams" but the real yam is a big fellow grown in Africa and sometimes weighs as much as 100 pounds. Sweet potatoes are full of high-energy nutrients—in fact they are the most complete foods known for, in wars, hard- pressed troops short of other foods have found that they could live and fight on a straight sweet potato diet. Plain baked sweet potatoes are fine eating, just as they come out of the oven but here is a recipe for stuffing sweet potatoes hearty enough for a meal-in-one. until puffy and lightly browned. Serve at once. Several variations may be used in place of the ham. For the same amount of sweet po- tatoes use 1/2 cup celery and 1/4 cup pecans in place of ham. Omitting the sugar and baking powder add 6 slices crisp bacon crumbled. Take a tip from the South and serve sauteed potatoes for a change. Just wash, peel and cut sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch slices and saute in butter or margarine or bacon fat until potatoes are soft. * * * * Have you used a sweet po- tato to develop a trailing vine of leafy shoots to provide that touch of greenery at little cost that we prize during the winter season? Choose a sweet potato that has a few "whiskers" and sus- pend it in a jar of water by sticking toothpicks into the sides of the potato. Start it in a warm, dark place but move it to a sunny window when the roots begin to sprout. Charcoal may be placed in the water to lessen the bacteria. The plant eventually becomes unwieldly and might as well be discarded. Another vine is eas- ily started if desired. * * * * We are always pleased to receive hints from our readers. One of them told us she tried the recipe for Bavarian Squares which appeared in this column February 4 and liked it very much but she offered this sug- gestion; Line the square cake- pan with foil before putting any of the mixture in. After the dessert is set it is easy to lift it out of the pan with the foil under it and thus cut it in squares without any waste. Many thanks for this hint.

Chances are that the egg whites were not beaten enough after the sugar was added. The sugar must be completely dissolved in the whites before baking to give a light fine textured meringue.
