Southern Ohio is it's special habitat, and
the salt-rising bread habit formed its de-
voices never get over their prediction for
THE rather NAL odorous loaf They insist
that bread made in this way is more di-
gestible than bread made with other kinds
of yeast and many dyspeptics will eat no
iother.
Whether this bread Is wholesome or no
| is, however. an open question 1t is claim
| ed by scientists that the fermentation
necessary to make good "emptyings" can
not he induced in a room surgically clean;
THAT it will only succeed when there is an
abundance of bacteria in the air, as. for
Instance. a room where the carpets and
ihanCings have not been shaken recently.
This is not pleasant to hear and Is, OF
course, contradicted by those who pin their
faith to this bread. The sponge for salt
rising bread is made by fermenting flour
and water or milk without the addition of
ordinary yeast. Here is recipe for its
making as given by a noted Virginia house
keeper
Put two tablespoonfuls Of corn meal in
n pitcher and pour over it half a pint OF
boiling water. Add pinch of salt, and let
1t stand about ten minutes to partially
cool Then stir in two tablespoonfus OF
flour and set in a warm place to rise over
night or for five or six hours. In the
