Home of the Edam Cheese.

While the Edam cheese is familiar

knows whence it comes nor how its
cannon ball proportions and gay col
oring have been achieved. The north
ern part Of Holland is the seat of the
Edam cheese industry, and the conse-
quent cleanliness of the relish is there
fore doubly assured.
In making it the fresh cows milk is
carefully strained and the rennet add
ed. AS soon as the milk curdIes the
whey is drawn off, and the curd, thor
oughly kneaded, is pressed into molds.
This process is repeated until the whey
has all been extracted and the curd is
comparatively dry. 1t is then wrapped
in a linen cloth and kept for 10 or Il
days until quite solid. Then the cloth
is removed and the cheese put into
salt I've. Afterward g little more dry
salt is sprinkled on the cheese until
the maker thinks it is salt enough to
insure it's keeping.
1t is next put into vessel and wash

the white crust. It is next carried in
to cool room and laid on shelves.

err at work, saw sea gulls lowering

scanning the surface Of the ground.
Suddenly, steadying itself a moment,
it dropped, dug it's bill into the heav-
ing ground and rose with a mole for
it's prey Resting a few minutes, it
gracefully began again a further
second mole was unearthed.

A Very Useless Insect.

A writer in the Philadelphia Times
who has been looking up the record of
the mosquito in natural history has
come to the conclusion that it is a very
useless insect. Here is the result OF
his investigation:
Just why the mosquito bites people
is not yet known. It is not to furnish
it food, for it is an established fact
that a mosquito, after gorging him.
self with human blood, dies within q
few hours, whereas mosquitoes that
have never tasted blood have been
known 10 live very comfortably, even
through the entire winter and into the
next season. The adult mosquito does
not need food During its larvae stage
it has stored up enough nourishment to
last all it's life, and it is normal state
FOR it to so without food for the rest
of it's existence. All that it needs is
moist air, adult mosquitoes being
known to pass the winter in damp eel
lars, living on nothing but the mois-
ture.
1.-THE fact that it is estimated that
only one cut of 10000 ever tastes hui
man blood also proves that it is not
necessary. Why it persists in tortur-
ing mankind, therefore, has not yet
been found out, and scientists can on
~ swear softly with the rest of man
kind and make the general statement
that the mosquito is born with a vitiat-
ed appetite for human gore, an appetite
that causes the death of the indulger."
