The popular liking for cottage
cheese, which is rapidly gaining favor
in many parts of the country, presents
new problems in marketing, say mar
ket specialists of the United States
department of agriculture. Marketing
methods which make it possible for
consumers to obtain this valuable food
product in desirable condition, have
not been well developed in many mar
kets. A good quality of cottage
cheese, however, when sold in suit
able packages at reasonable price,
will be used by numerous consumers
during all seasons of the year. Many
creameries, as well as dairymen and
farmers, are producing cottage cheese
as side line, and find they can dis
pose of it readily.
Cottage cheese is unlike butter in
general characteristics, but may be
merchandised in much the same man
ner. 1t should be placed in a con-
tainer that will not only protect it
from contamination, but will also aid
in preserving its qualities for rea-
sonable period. The most commonly
used types Of packages for retailing
cottage cheese are the parchment pa
per wrapper, tinfoil wrapper paper
oyster pail. butter cartons, fiber board
packages, and glass or earthenware
jars. The more desirable types of
cartons are those which offer the best
protection against the entrance of air,
since they protect the cheese from con-
taminatiOn and keep it in satisfactory
condition until used.
Wrapping Cottage Cheese.
When good grade of parchment
paper is used and care is used in
wrapping 1t neatly around the cheese,
it is an economical and serviceable
package. Where quantities of half
pound or less are purchased, the small
oil parchment paper bag, similar to
that used for salted peanuts, has
proved satisfactory. Tinfoil wrappers
make a neat-appearing package that is
practically alright, and protects the
The Dolores star., 1919-08-08

keeping quality of the cheese. The
wrapper may be placed above a mold
and a measured or weighed amount
placed in it, first wrapping the cheese
in parchment paper or lining the wrap
per with it. Wood fiber containers
coated with parafiin are among the
most sanitary and desirable types of
packages for cottage cheese. They
may be obtained in several sizes.
The regular style butter cartons are
used as containers for cottage cheese
and serve well when the cheese does
not contain surplus moisture or is
rather dry. Paraffin paper cups are
especially desirable since they have
close-fitting alright covers which
make them practically impervious to
moisture and keep the cheese in
perfectly clean and sanitary condition.
No additional wrapper or paper is re-
quired, although some retailers place
such packages in paper bags as a mat
ter of convenience to the customer.
Demonstrates Good Advertising.
Because of the lack of a general
knowledge in some sections of the use
of cottage cheese as substitute for
meat and us substantial part of the

ords of ant injury to young fruit and
nut seedlings In nurseries and to
other nursery stock, and to young
trees planted in recently cleared
ground or soil rich in humus. The
ants also injure variety of shrubs,
weeds and flowers in gardens as well
as in greenhouses.
Since white ants are difficult to
eliminate from the woodwork of
building when once established every
precaution should be taken to prevent
their gaining entrance. Where pos
sible, foundations of buildings should
be entirely of stone, brick or concrete,
including stone columns or pillars in
the basement to support the floor
above. Make the floors and walls in
the basement or cellar of concrete and
lay the floors ON a gravel bnse. Where
stone or concrete foundations are i'm

The allied reply to the German pro-
posals, il developed today, will lay
particular stress upon the character OF
the permanent reparatons commission.
1t will be explained to the Germans
that this commission IS not a tyran-
meal body, but that It will administer
its duties in a spirit of fairness and
helpiulneSs, so far as to facilitate Ger
mlny's economic reconstruction.
1t is learned that the short time lin
it given Germany for reply IS largely
due to the Germans themselves They
are understood to have said they
would not require more than five days
to reach a decision
(Friday nights dispatches said only
two days would be given for the an
swer, with three days Of grace before
the armistlce was suspended in the
event Of a German refusal to sign)
While reports from Germany on the
prospects OF Germany's signing the
treaty are lacking II clarity, IT is
known that the council is acting on
the belief that there is no general feel
ing on the part OF the masses against
German acceptance OF the terms An
air OF optimism pervades the council IN
this respect.
