LARGEST CHEESE
IN THE WORLD

When one considers that it re-
quires about ten pounds or five
quarts of milk to make one pound
of cheese one may gain some idea
or the enormous quantity of milk
required to make cheese weighing
over two tons. Such a cheese has
been made at Appleton, Wisconsin,
for the National Dairy show to be
held in Chicago, Oct 20-29. The
cheese is so big that the maker
built 1T upon a flat car, using a
great hoop of galvanized iron 10
feet in circumference. 1t required
over twenty tons of milk to furnish
the curd for the cheese. which is
four feet and eight inches in diam
eter and three feet 9h inches in
height. 1t is of fine quality and is
believed to be the largest cheese
ever made.
