Cheese mixing.
The principal cheese made and con-
sumed in this country Is an imitation Of
the English Chldder cheese. The pro-
cess is thus described by Mr.. $enophon
a. Willard of Little Falls n Y. THE

together The evenings milk ought to
be cooled so "a to reach a temperature
of s. or so deg. Fahr, IN the morning.

produce coagulatlon In from 40 To 90
minutes. when the curd has attained
sufficient consistency or readily splits

the reason that all parts Of the mass

heat evenly and alike; and in order to
accomplish this In the best manner In
about twenty minutes after the first
cutting, and after the whey begins To
form, the mass TX cut again, going over
with the knives three or four times In
succession. This leaves the particles

the hands and arms few minutes heat

temperature OF the mingled whey and
curdH raised gradually to about % deg
tnhr,, the time required being about
thifty minutes, the stirring meanwhile
being Kept w, that all parts may be
operated upun by heat alike.
THE ourds are now left MT rest for
about ton minutes, when half OF the
Whey IL drawn on Heat IL again np-

twenty-five minutes and the stirring
