Making Cheese In olden Days,

Cheese was made by the old-time
farmers in the summer on the COOP
erative plan by which four cattle own
ers owning say IA milch cows, received
all the milk night and morning, &C.
cording to the daily yield of their
little herd. Thus given two families
having five cows each, one with three
and one with one, supposing that the
average yield per COW was the same,
IN TWO weeks, two owners would make
nve cheeses each; one would press
three, and one only one cheese, but
this one would be as good and an large
as any of the rest.-"Nobility Of the
