BREADS made light by the use
y of yeast are on the whole more
satisfactory than the so-called
quick breads made light by the use
of baking powder. And while the
average homemaker seems to feel
that yeast breads are more trouble
to make. this is mistake. for act
ually the process is neither hard
nor tedious.
II economy is an object, you can
effect a worthwhile savingg by
doing your own baking. After q
little experience you will Go il
easily and with perfect results.
The -four used for bread-making
is preferably wheat -four made
from spring wheat. This kind of
Sour contains more gluten than
that made from winter wheat and
therefore retains the gas which de-
yelops in the bread dough better
than pastry flour made from win
ter wheat.
The following rule is sufficient
for two one and one-half pound
laaYes of bread and is an excellent
foundation recipe.

sugar, cakes compressed yeast,
Ia cup lukewarm water, G cups

Put butter, lard, sugar and salt
into large mixing bowl. Add scald-
ed milk and cool to lukewarm tenn

cake. Add three cups Of flour and

cups of -four, cutting il in with a
knife until thoroughly mixed. Add
remaining -four slowly, using just
enough to make the dough OF such
consistency that it can be kneaded
without sticking to the board.
