and we had to guess at it. Who ever
thought of the steel roller -four. the
dough mixer, the divider, the round
en- automatic PROBING closets and the
many modern devices now made to
make easier and better quality bread ?
we mad no more thought of such
Things than We had of electric lights.
telephones, automobiles or typewrit-
ers.
l remember the first dough dividers
"hlcn were made in the United
states; they were made for William
Schmidt of Chicago and l bought the
second one made. They were similar
TO our present bun dfviders, but on a
larger scale. My first dough mixer
was made by Roth & Mcmahon, Chi
cago. 1t was a two-barrel size and
was turned by hand. A large hy
wheel made it turn a bit easier. but
the work was as hard as making
dough by hand; l had the satisfaction.
however, of seeing a better dough
made in a more sanitary condition.
When l first started in business l
made crackers by hand and they were
baked in the old style oven. A broad
peel was used for putting in and TAX
ing out, and it took some quick work
to get all out and baked even. A fore
man received from 81 to Sc a. week
and board and helpers IS to 81, plus
board Compare these wages with
those OF today; what a change! Most
of the bread was sold over the count
er; the consumer brought a basket
and carried IT home. Some bread was
delivered by the baker carrying bas-
ketful on his head or shoulders. Later
on the more prosperous baker had a
horse and wagon. The top was re-
moved Sunday, old Dobin was
hitched up and then the family had
an outing. The grocer did not think
of selling bread. The bakers wife
looked after the store, made the paper
bags and raised a family of children,
and good healthy ones at that.
The price of flour f1uctuated all the
time. / remember in 1866 flour cost
from S12 to $14 the barrel; in 1868 to
1870 from IS to $40; then later it went
as low as $3.50. Eggs could be bought
AT and S cents the dozen; butter s
to 10 cents the pound. There was no
limit to the working hours. l had to
work IA to 16 hours day. Store was
kept open until II o'clock evenings
and all day Sunday.
What wonderful change has taken
place in my days, l have marked the
progress made, and tried to keep pace
with it.

Henry Horn, president of the Korn
Baking company. at the request OF
the Bakers Helper, trade publication
of Chicago, has written an interesting
story of some of his experiences as
a baker at the time of the Civil war
and after, beginning at Fortress Mon.
roe. Incidentally his article shows. by
contrast, the wonderful progress that
has been made in the baking business
OF the country. OF course, everyone
here knows that among those who
have been responsible for this pro
gress none has been more progressive
than Mr. Korn. His article in the Chi
cago trade publications review of the
baking business is as follows:
Editor Bakers Helper, Chicago:
Ny experience as a baker started dur
ing the Civil war, when / was station
ed at Fortress Monroe: my experi.
ence in commercial bakeries began
after that. Fifty years ago We used
nothing but inside ovens" which
were heated with cord wood. The
fuel was placed inside the oven. and
smoke and heat passed out of the fiue
al the rear. a few bakers had ovens
with furnaces or freplaces at the side.
This style oven is stiu in use in the
far west, where pine slabs and rat
things are cheap. About the first
continuous baking oven on the market
in the middle west was the Peterson
oven; then came the Duhrkop, Simp-
kins and others, and finally the draw
plates, although the latter had been in

use in Europe for a good many years.
Fifty years ago nearly all bread was
baked on the hearth or bottom, and
was called Bottom Bread" even to-
day the same term is used. We had
as many shapes and styles of bottom
bread in the olden days as the modern
bakers have of pan bread.
There was a large oblong loaf
which was made up something like
We make ParkeThouse rolls: il was
called Irish bread. This bread was
PROCEED in folds of a cloth and when
ready was put in the oven on a mar
row peel and baked close together.
We also made a twist and a loaf
which was made of two pieces which
we're rounded up, and after a bit of
proof the two pieces were fattened
and put one on the other, a hole put
in with the thumb and laid away to
proof IN cloth. This was peeled to-
gether and baked on the hearth. Many
housewives made up their doughs al
home and brought them TO the baker
to be baked.
As a leaven We used the sour dough
ferment and stock yeast. The fer
ment was made from -four and Do
tatoes, and the stock from malt and
hops. There were concerns which
sold ferments and stock yeast to the
smaller bakers. Nearly every bak-
cry sold ferment to the home bakers
at so much the pint The -four mill
ed in those days could not be depend

Japanese "Silent" Music.

A curious ceremony used to be per-
formed in Japan by the court must
clans at certain Shinto festivals. Both
stringed and wind instruments were
used. but it was held that no sound
should be allowed to fall upon IN
worthy ears. and. as some of the ears
present might be unworthy, all the
mouons Of playing were gone through
by the musicians. but not a single
sound was heard. This strange GUS
tom dated back many generations.

The Spirit of Christmas Gifts.

EVe-up-to-date IN Ilmes-Demo-
crat: A smaller number Of gifts and
more love and care in their selec-
ton would aid in keeping the chill
dren. and their elders as we'll, IN
|accord with the true Christmas
spirit. For the heart of Christmas
happiness is kindliness and consld-
Grafton and concern for others. And
this is very hard to keep in the
midst of the holiday confusion. The
thoughtful purchaser who buys few
gifts, but buys them with love and
care, lifts bit of the heavy burden
which falls at this time on the
shoulders of the shop girls. 1t is a
season of noise and discords, OF
pushing and pulling, of long hours
and bad manners. This is largely be-
tcause so many people try to buy too
many presents which necessitates
the completion of their Christmas
shopping a few days before Christ
mas. To begin early and to buy less
and with greater care is a way tC
textend the Christmas blessings OF
good will and peace so that they in
Iclude buyers and sellers.
So, suppose we simplify oul
Christmas, introducing little more
treason and restraint into our buy
ling, and in this way have a little
|more time to remember those who
lin pain, poverty or loneliness will
mot have very happy Christmas
funless we help them?
It is hard for those who are rich
lily blessed to think of Christmas il
|any other way than as a season O.
lgladness and merriment. But ther'
Iare thousands of hearts filled witt
la peculiarly heavy sadness that day
