U.S.A. Dry weight - a bushell = 32 pounds....quality of the grain in the bushell measured is an entirely diffenent story. Variety an moisture are crucial to final price.

A couple mid-plains U.S.A. turn of th 1900's guides taught in the schools.

Rough rule for cooking:
A pint's a pound - the world around
And two cups equal a pint.

Rough rule for "pie curst" (by weight)
Half as much shortening as flour, half as much water as shortening, a pinch of salt and a pinch of BP.

Sincerely,
