Starch in ally form requires intense
heat to bring it to perfection, and the
starch in the potato, because it is im-
prisoned or inclosed by the -'cellulose,
demands plenty of heat at the very
outset of its cooking. Therefore,, if
the potato is to be boiled, it must be
plunged quickly .into rapidly boiling
water. Another reason for this neces-
sity, of boiling water is found in the
cellulose structure, for only intense
heat will break clown these woody
walls. Therefore, it is quite' plain that
if the: potato were to be put into cold
or tepid or even fairly hot Water, the
woody or cellulose section ^Would ab-
sorb the water and so toughen it that
the starchy particles, instead of burst-
ing out suddenly; into the floury meati-
ness so desirable, would become soggy
and moist.

Long ago, hearty fifteen hi iedred
years before the coming of Christ,
leadors of the lieopie of that One
knew the value of trees and their Im-
portance to human life. In the twen-
tieth •chapter of Deuteronomy the
priest in his exhortatiou'to encourage
the poodle to battle stated,
"When thou shalt besiege a city a
long time in making war against it,
thou shalt not destroy the trees there-
of by forcing an axe against them for
thou mayest eat of them and thou
shalt not cut them down (for .the tree.
of the field, is man's life) to employ
them in the siege,
"Only the frees which ;hon lcueweel
that they be tot trees for meat, thou
shalt destroy 'and cut them emu."
