Ing statements and suggestions: The classification
arranged and published In regard to the United states
and Canada, has caused numerous complaints FROM
cheese makers throughout WORK State, and II adj
hered to Will practically result in excluding 1s State
from making cheese exhibit at the Worlds Column
bian Exposition, because the dimensions OF cheese
given in the cassncations do not include the larger
proportion OF the whole milk cheese manufactured in
New York state. We suggest that the standard Of
quality for judging cheese shall comprise the follow
ing points with values given: Flavor, 80; texture,
10: frmness, 10; appearance 10; color, ID; salt, 5.
We believe that the weights OF the cheese should
not be considered In the classification. because tho
dimensions alone sufficient limitation. The add
lion Of weight. unless extended. would exclude some
OF the dimensions given.
