POTATO SOUP.

After stewing veal, use the stock. Slice four or five potatoes very thin; lay them in cold water until thirty minutes before serving; add them to the stock, with sufficient salt and pepper. Beat one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of flour to cream; add to this one pint milk; stir in the soup just before serving. This can be made without meat by adding more butter and milk.
