Yeast used,— Fleischman's Compressed, I. Estimate of the number of yeast colonies contained >v in a cake of the yeast, Age of yeast cake, 48 hours, Weight of the entire cake, 12.47 grams. Weight of the caxe taken, .01 grams... The weight taken was suspended in 1000 c.c. of steril- ized water. Gelatine plates of .5 6.6., .1 ¢.CG., and .05 c,.c,. were made. In forty-eight hours, at temperature of 1s © 20°C, the plates had developed sufficiently to make inocculations from and to count the colonies. The average estimation of the mumber of colonies by the three plates was 121,806,960 ,000 colonies in the entire veast cake, weighing 12.47 crams , II, Pure culture of the yeast, A single yeast colony isolated in st::rile wort de- veloped suvficiently in forty-eight hours, at a temperature of 18°- 20 Cc. to equal in strength 1 gram of the original yeast cake in raising dough. 95468 etTHMAMIACTAUTXKA TAR er eMAUTAMT MATT THY THDIT TO CARH A). eT2UHD AMTKAP CVA etna ycvtogr motdlLa eh. ebsasoetgmod afaaniontalLt =... : henfiatnoo setnofoo tasay to wT dirt git ta ota. ofibe ¢t eSfton Sb .stso |... e Ma VR.RL ,etao avtitne v: -sebtetga (0, ,ftexAnt sro -fitete ‘to .9.9 OO0L at hohacdqase eaw men. 20,0 GO, hits 90.0 £. «20.9 3. to anisl{g anit. | 6) 0& - BL ‘to etutaracies Sh ,ativorl Iipte-yr ‘to aotvamttee esetmevs eit ,retnofon eft 1 000,008,908, £5 aaw astalq setdt ait yd aoim i - oe Mmbety VYA.SL witigiow gedao farev entt tb hay pase Olt te cestcos —wOhePtaw ofie tu aL betsloek yriolao fi. emuratedimet a te ,ansyonl fayte-vyitvror at witeer: fanigtro alt to omar, { dtagnetts at Lemp: ¢' eftyltoh sk f° 603 Hepat: antottalgooont etam of yids loittura beyols.

Conclusions, The quick process gives more moist and sweeter bread. The slow procees gives bread of better texture, writer color and more tender crust. Boiling wetting gives the best results, and re- quires less amount of flour. Milk is the best wetting, and requires less flour, The addition of sugar and butter makes a lighter, firmer, and more tewier bread. 38°C. is the optimum temperature for rising,and 710°C. for baking. al 6 MPMI DU IMM e.sucathea take fF ,! ‘bevypepat an Bal tee . yy 4 4 - re Noo _ SF ON aom v Y OU -o een oa . af . ‘, v4 % 2 + 7 ow — mn ee eee 741 D281 95468 Dean | arena experiments, Se | | Woe T641 D281 95468 Dean
