W. Gillett Com pany, Ltd., which are thoroughly correct as to making and baking yeast bread. Mrs. E. J. Powell. To make Liquid Yeast with Royal Yeast Use two cups of flour and blend with a little cold water until smooth, then pour over this four quarts of boiling water and stir the flour and water together thoroughly. Add one quart finely mashed potatoes and one half cup of salt, and same quantity of sugar. Let this liquid cool until it is lukewarm, and add two Royal Yeast cakes that have been soaked previously for a few minutes in tepid water. Then put this mixture in a warm (not hot) place, well covered, for a few hours. Use a vessel sufficiently large to allow the liquid to rise. The liquid referred to above could be used four or five hours after making; but to get best results it should be allowed to stand over night, or about twelve hours, before using it. It will keep for two weeks in a moderately cool place. Above quantity of liquid yeast is sufficient to make ten or twelve large loaves of delicious bread. To Make Two Loaves of Bread Bread
