PARAFFlNING CHEESE.

ment into liquid paraffin. Hereto
fore the paraffln has been heated by
steam or hot water. and 1t has been
difficult, If not impossible. to secure

F. Where the cheese was dipped al
this low temperature there was a man
ifest tendency for the covering OF par

double gasoline burner was therefore
tried and the temperature raised to
266 degrees r.
Repeated tests at various tempera-
lures seemed to indicate that the best
results are obtained between 2fo ana
30 degrees F. In fact. In no case where
the dipping was done at this high tenn
perature did the covering peel off. The
experiments show that thin coat OF
paraff1n is all that Is needed. Inc

cheese weighing forty-four pounds Is
about one-fourth of pound. Cheese
