    Long ago they used to eat oaten and barley bread. They used to thresh the corn long ago with a horse mill. Then they used to sell the wheat because that time it was three pounds per barrell.
    Long ago they baked the bread on a griddle in front of the fire. They used to make potatoecakes also.
