POTATO CHOWDER Pare 6 good-sized potatoes, dice them and put on to boil in clear water with a medium-sized finely-shredded onion. Dice about 1/3, of a pound of nice bacon and put it into a skillet and fry a nice brown, then add the bacon to the potatoes, first pouring off most of the grease. Put 2 tablespoonfuls of butter into the skillet, add a tablespoonful of flour and about 1/2 pint of rich milk, more if you like it thin; after this boils up, pour it into the potatoes and bacon, add salt, red pepper, and a small bunch of minced parsley; let it boil up well and serve hot.
