Advice, For Cheese Factory Patron,

In cheese making two things are
necessary. good milk and a good cheese
maker. A cheese makers Gee too
often depends on his ability to make
marketable cheese out of milk that
ought never to have been delivered at
the factory. Thousands of dollars are
lost annually In the cheese producing
sections by milk being delivered In
such condition that factory methods
must be modified to eliminate defects
that ought not to have existed. While
It is true that a competent cheese max
er can produce good cheese from a Sec
ond class grade Of milk. 1t Is also true
that the same cheese maker with first
class milk will make q better grade OF
cheese and enough more In quantity to
pay well for the extra care given to the
milk by the producer. Every time that
patrons require a cheese maker to over
come the effect of overripe or gassy
milk they lose on the quantity Of
cheese produced In addition to the
quality. A. Haven, Michigan.
