Whole Wheat Bread

3 packages yeast (1/4 oz. each)
3 c. warm water (110 to 115 degrees)
1/2 c. sugar
3eggs
1/3 c. vegetable oil
1 T. salt
5 c. whole wheat flour
4 to 4 1/2 c. all-purpose flour

In a mixing bowl, disolve yeast in warm water. Add sugar, eggs, oil, salt, and whole wheat flour; beat until smooth. Add enough of the all-purpose flour to form a soft dough. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch down. Divide into three pieces and shape each into a loaf and place in greased loaf pans. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes. Bake at 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes. Remove from pans and cool on racks.
