   Heat buttermilk, stirring constantly until scalded.  Remove from fire and
   let cool.  Add yeast which has been softened in the water. Add sufficient
   flour to make a medium batter.  Beat until smooth. Cover and set in a warm
   place and allow to stand overnight. Add sugar, salt butter, and enough
   flour to make a dough just stiff enough to knead. Turn onto lightly floured
   board and knead until smooth and elastic.  Allow to rise until double in
   bulk and work down.  Let rise again until double in bulk. Form into loaves.
   Place in well-oiled pans.  Cover and let rise until double in bulk. Bake in
   hot oven (425ø F) about 45 minutes. 4 loaves. Mrs. W.H. Juedeman, Bristow,
