       3 lb Strong flour
       4 ts Salt
       2 oz Lard
       1 oz Yeast
       1 ts Sugar
     3/4 pt Milk
     1/2 pt Water
  
   Sieve the flour and salt into a bowl and rub in the lard. Cream the
   yeast and sugar in a basin. Warm the milk and water together until
   tepid and add to the yeast and sugar mixture. Pour the Iiquid into
   the centre of the flour mixture. Mix to form a soft dough and knead
   for 5 minutes. Place in a bowl, cover and leave in a warm place to
   prove for 1 hour. Knock back the dough and knead lightly on a floured
   surface. Shape into loaves and put in greased loaf tins or on to
   greased baking trays. Prove for thirty minutes. Meanwhile set the
   oven to 425/F or Mark 7. Bake for 10 minutes then reduce the heat to
   400/F or Mark 6 for 30 minutes. Remove the loaves from the tins or
   turn over, if on trays, and bake for 10 minutes to brown the crust.
   Serve at tea-time with butter and jam.
