LIGHTNING YEAST BREAD. (nO SPONGE.) This is one of the easiest methods of bread-making and produces excellent bread. The work is all done the same day, as it is not necessary to start the sponge over night. For two loaves weighing a pound apiece, allow a pint of the lightning yeast. Place a quart of flour in the bread-pan, sprinkle over it a little salt
