chemistry, etc.
How is Roquefort cheese cured Z
The mold in the cheese is produced by
moldy breadcrumbs which are ground
to a green dust and mixed in the
cheese eurd. The country around
Roquefort is very rocky. The lime
stone rocks are full Of crevices and
caves, which draw in the warm air in
summer, give it out in winter, and vice
versa
"These caves have been provided by
nature and improved by cellars that
have been built in such a way that
these natural currents Of warm and
cold air pass through them, where
Roquefort cheese is cured. This is the
way that Requefort cheese is ripened
and gets its peculiar flavor and char
acter. It is all very we'll for the sci
entists to study the chemical process
which the cheese is undergoing. but to
produce this process in an artificial
way Is another question. Nature is
the best chemist.
The manufacture Of Rouuefort
cheese has been tried in America, but
the manufacturers did not make much
OF a success. Nobody manufactures
Roquefort in America at present We
know of one manufacturer who tried to
make Roquefort cheese Of goats milk
He boasted especially that he would
use only the milk Of imported goats.

ETC., which produce the fine fragrant
grass. The milk Of the cows or goats
or sheep is naturally the product Of
the grass they are eating, the water
they are drinking. and neither this nor
the climate nor the country can be i'm
ported to America-only the product
which the climate or country produces.
That is why neither the American
Camembert nor Roquefort ever has the
flavor or fragrance of the imported ar
ticle in spite Of all the imported goats
or imported cattle or even of imported
microbes. '-Chicago Record-Herald
