EIGHT MEDrORD (ORZGOK) MAIL TRIBUNE Sunday. June , ISB5 Mill Patrick Henry Used Still Turning Out Flour, Corn Meal Br PATRICIA WIGGINS United Press Correspondent Washington U.R) A mining engineer who "got tired of it all" has found a new way of life in an 18th century flour mill turning out ingredients for good ies like grandma used to bake. Jack Clinger and his wife "who never worked a day be fore in her life" are turning out old-time buckwheat flour, cracked wheat, oatmeal and other flours that colonial home makers used to make such mouth-watering delicacies as mo lasses quick bread. ... T He dingers' unbleached white flour has been snapped up by colonial Williamsburg, Va.t bakers who pride themselves on turning out the "real thing." And all nine of the Clingers' flour products, packaged in two- and five-pound old-fashioned bags, are finding ready takers in food specialty stores that cater to modern day connoisseurs or people who' just plain like good eating. Their base of operations is the Byrd Mill, about 100 miles from Washington and eight miles from the nearest town of Louisa on the South Anna river in Vir ginia. Patrick Henry was one of its early patrons. The Sduth Anna isn't really a river (it's a creek that some times runs dry.

Main Phone 2-6440 when the mill was built in 1740, the Anna provides enough water to turn the big mill wheel. When Clinger took over about two years ago, most of his busi ness was "custom grinding corn meal and flour for local farmers. Now he turns out about 35,000 pounds of products a month equal to about one day's output of big competitors and serves about 100 retail stores from New York to San Francisco. dinger's newest product is a muffin meal. It's made of 'rye. wheat and corn ground basic ingredient for traditional black breads. i Like his other products, the meal contains no chemicals, pre servative or otherwise. Clinger claims that though this means refrigeration is re commended for storing, ,it also means the flours are higher in nutritional values and vitamins. At least one New York nutri tionist agrees with him. The doc tor has put products from Byrd's mill in diets for about 100 of his patients. Like his other products, din ger's sack of muffin meal has on its back an old-time recipe designed to do justice to what's inside: Beat 2 eggs, add 2 tablespoons sugar and 6 tablespoons melted shortening. Then mix 2Vi tea spoons baking powder and 3A of a teaspoon salt to li cups of muffin meal and stir into the liquid. Stir only long enough to dampen meal, do not beat. Let stand a few minutes then bake in t greased muffin pans in 425 oven for 20 minutes. tvimg!? -"TIT r - : Strong dark and light accents are smart this season for casual wear.
