  Pare and slice potatoes.  Add corn meal, sugar, 1 teaspoon salt, and
  boiling water.  Wrap bowl in a heavy cloth.  Cover and allow to stand
  in a warm place overnight.  In the morning remove potatoes. Add milk,
  water, baking soda, salt, and shortening. Add sufficient flour to
  make a dough just stiff enough to knead. Knead until smooth and
  elastic. Form into loaves. Place in well-oiled pans.  Cover and let
  rise until double in bulk.  Bake in moderate oven (400°F) about 45
  minutes.
