SPONGE: Put potatoes, cornmeal, sugar, salt and boiling water in 1/2 gal
glass jar and stir. Set, uncovered, in warm spot overnight. Next day,
strain off foam, keep the liquid and discard the rest.
BREAD: Bring milk to a simmer and add Crisco, baking powder and soda. Blend
in sponge. Put in large bowl, add enough flour to make a stiff batter which
is still pliant enough to beat. Set in a warm place to rise to double. Add
a little more flour to make dough stiff enough to shape into 3 loaves and
let double.  Bake at 350 for about an hour.
