Good Bread as Easy a. Poor.
MAKING WHEAT BREAD BOTH By SHORT
AND OVERNIGHT METHODS.

No other single article of food IL a.
frequently placed on the table or takes
~ prominent place In the average diet
as bread. In some form or other Il is
served at practically every meal, and
many times 10 the chief article. Proper.
ly balanced. with milk, butter, fruits,
vegetables, eggs, cheese, or little meat,
bread may well form considerable part
Of our daily food. Bread and other
cereal products are also among the least
expensive of our foods.
As It occupies so prominent place IN
the diet, bread ought certainly to be we'll
made, we'll baked, and properly cared
for. Moreover, any girl or woman who
desires to be known as o really good
cook, will wish to excel particularly in
bread making. ( An ideal loaf Of bread
is attractive In appearance; crust
smooth, tender, and golden brown In
color; the loaf itself light and we'll
rounded on top; the orumb spongy and
tender; and the whole delicious in
flavor.
