      8 Cups Milk (2%)

      3/4 Cup flour

      Cook Potatoes, celery, water & clam juice with Salt & Pepper until very tender.

      In large pan, mix butter & cook unions until tender. Mix milk & flour to onions & heat

      until boiling. Add potatoes, celery. Mix & add clams. For richer soup use more butter
