Cake yeast rolls recipe missing part of flour measurement My mother has a cake yeast rolls recipe, but she can't remember it. She's 101 so don't expect it. I have part of the recipe, and it is:

2 yeast cake in 1/4 cups of warm water
1 cup scalded milk
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup shortening
1 1/2 salt
3 eggs
3 1/? cups flour

My dilemma is how much exactly is the partial cup of flour?
The only practical options are 1/4, 1/2, or 1/3.  I would start with 3 and 1/4 cup flour.  If it feels to sticky, add 1/4 cup more flour.
