Of course a great many people know that the
holes there for very good reason that they
are associated with good flavor. Without those
holes there would not be any Swiss cheese that
amounted to anything. But American scientists
have racked their brains for years trying to learn
how to manufacture holes comparable to those
found in the finest products from Switzerland
They experimental and experimental. But it
was no go. They could make small holes, yes
but the right kind Of holes, holes that produce
cheese with a sweet, nutty flavor, were as
elusive as a fox
The scientists visited the greatest swiss-cheese
producing section of the United States. During
the year 1915, q Swiss families had migrated to
the United States with a view TO launching the
manufacture of Swiss cheese in this country.
These people examined several locations and
finally settled in the hills of Green county, Wis
consin 1t was here, in the first can of milk man
ufactured into a miniature Swiss cheese, that the
American Swiss-cheese industry was born.
But when these Swiss people were questioned
regarding their art they could tell nothing From
a scientific standpoint they no knew what
produced the holes in a Swiss cheese than did

that they had made it so by the way they handled

similar to those in their native alps, and for
that reason favorable to the manufacture OF
fair-enough kind of product.
Then the scientists went to Switzerland and
tried to wheedle the out of the origfnators
But even there in the Emmental, the home of the
Swiss cheese, the best-informed worker did not
know the scientific principles involved. In fact,
no one in Switzerland knew. The worker in
formed the scientists that he learned the trade
from his father and knew simply that if he did
a certain thing to some gallons of milk and
placed the result in a cellar Swiss cheese would
be produced that considered to be the best
cheese manufactured anywhere in the world

Here is story which is related with great
gustO throughout the length and breadth OF
Green county, Wisconsin:
Chris Roth of Monroe is a manufacturer and
wholesaler of american SUiss cheese. He knows
the secrets of the cheese-makers who came from
Switzerland to Green county in 1915. He makes
good cheese, admits it and doesn't care Who
knOws it. Some aOelI-satisfed customers eUen
trent so far to tell him his American SWisS
cheese CGS better SWiSS cheese than SWlSS SWlSS
cheese
Chris had bright idea one day. He decided
to find out Just how much better aOas his Amer
tcdn SWiSs cheese than the SWiSS StDiSs cheese
So he Orote to Switzerland and ordered the
Oery best SWiss cheese that could be had.
In due time the SWiSS SwiSs cheese arrIUed
IN Monroe. Chris, all impotence, made haste
to open the shipment. VoIuminous wrappings
t0ere removed one by one and at last the very
best SwiSs St0iss cheese tvas revealed in all its
S6eduty. Ind on it lOas stamped the familiar
legend:

The making of the cheese on the farm and Its
transportation to a central point for curing IL
suggestive of arrangement that might prove
applicable to the cheese industry in the United
States. The cheese could be cured and ripeneo
at less expense and probably graded and mar
keted to better advantage, than under our pres
ent system.
1t is curious to note that the caves in France
have been formed by the slipping Of the rocks
at the base of the Canbalou mountains. Among
them are subterranean grottoes and galleries
through which currents of cool, moist air circulate
with great rapidly, and through which tiny
streams thread their way. The air currents COM
ing in contact with the rocks produce rapid eVap-
grafton, a result Of which the temperature is
often lowered TO 10 degrees T. Many of the caves
have been enlarged and artificial refrigeration
used for the purpose Of storing and curing the
cheese at even lower temperatures.
The secret of making a fine RoQuefort cheese
turns upon the development Of certain mOlds. To
be sure most people regard anything moldy as
unit for use. But in this the mold is not
harmful and must be present if good RoquefOrt
flavor is to be developed For several years the
dairy division has been endeavoring to develop
greenwood cheese from cows milk.
In the first place, it impossible to secure
employees familiar with the process of manufac-
ture. 1t is not sufficient, some people believe.
to sprinkle some green mold on the curd in order
TO produce Roquefort cheese. In the work OF
the dairy division, for long time the mold failed
to develop properly, and in many cases did not
develop at all Special artificial curing condi-
not enough. To cure the cheese properly
required very low temperature with high rel
alive humidity and considerable ventilation
Make Our Own Caves.
However, after years Of experimental work,
special air-cOnditioning apparatus was perfected
an arrangement somewhat similar to that used
IN silk miIls-by means of which curing condi-
tons could be secured and maintained and which
were in fact quite comparable to the natural con-
ditions that prevailed in the caves Of ROquefort
America had ROquefort caves. Therefore It
was necessary to build something just good
And American scientists did it Moreover, the
French made RoQuefOrt cheese from sleeps milk.
During the past year, by the use Of the equip
ment mentioned, RoquefOrt cheese has been made
commercially from cows milk for the first time
in the United States, and marketed successfully
in competition with the imported article. In fact.
some critics have declared the cows milk cheese
to be superior to the imported sleeps milk prod
-uct.
The worst criticism of the domestic product
that has thus far been made is that the cheese
is too yellow. With some commercial experience
with the cheese there is every reason to believe
that IN the future some improvements in manu-
facture will be made so to produce a cheese
more uniform and perfect, and that eventually
a coW's-nilk ROquefort cheese win become one

States, If not in the world.

Paddock's Sensational Record
Marks Great Season ON Track
Coast Sprint Marvel Es-

i'm III Different Events
By Jack Masters

The year just passed was productive
of more sensational performances on
track and field than any other similar
period in the history of the sport.
Olympic games included. This sweep
ing statement is made possible by the
record shattering Charles Paddock, of
the University of Southern California,
Der of eleven world sprint marks, all
within period of five months.
1t is doubtful if any other branch
Of sport can boast of a similar achieve
ment, and the sobriquet. Human Man
o. War" or the "Babe Ruth of the
Track" so often applied to Paddock
now appears wholly inadequate as a
means Of expressing the prowess of this
athlete. Let his record speak for itself.
The distances which he covered in faster
time than has ever before been re-
corded by man will be found in another
Another amazing feature of this re-
markable addition to the record books
is that Paddock ran 100 yards in 0:O9 8 8
on four different occasions. The Pacific
Coast marvel will not be credited with
all eleven marks for the reason that
the American standard does not include
80, ITO, 13o, $50 and 200 yards. His
time for these distances will go down
as "noteworthy" feats, but they are
worlds records just the same.
Paddock first startled the athletic
world on March 26 last at Berkeley,
Calf, when he was clocked in O:O9 3-5
for the century," and in O:20 4-b for
220 yards. At Redlands, less than four
weeks later, he created new records for
100, 200 and 800 meters and 300 yards,
and on June 18 at the national cham
plonships held in Pasadena, he estab-
lished tho 80, 11o, 1870, 150 and 200
yards marks.
Foreign Athletes Beaten
Other high lights in a year crowded
with interesting events were the in
vnslon and defeat Of the Oxford Cam
bridge athletes and the French relay
team. The Englishmen were badly
beaten In three-cornered meet against
Yale and Harvard, the Crimson team
taxing eight first places out of ten, but
against Cornell and Princeton the
Britons Jared better, earning a tie.
The FrenchmenA completely out

also won the national Pentathlon cham
pionship at Travers Island in October.
Other worlds records were con-
tributed by Larry Brown, Of the Uni
versity Of Pennsylvania; August Desch,
the Newark boy now at Notre Dame;
the American Legion relay team OF
Pennsylvania, and the New York A. C.
relay teams in the national champion
ships.
Larry Brown shattered Mel Shep-

the distance in 2:12 1-5, and the same
day the American Legion team COM

One Of the colorful features Of the
year was the appearance here Of the
giant crew of the University OF Cali
fornia, probably the greatest eight ever
turned out on the Pacific Coast. The
crew was beaten in its first Eastern
appearance by Princeton's B crew on
Lake Carnegie, but had not had sufh-
cient time to prepare for this contest
and was not in it's true form. At Pough-
keepsie the Bears showed the stuff Of
which they were made and, although
beaten by the Navy, led Cornell, Syrn-
cuse, Pennsylvania and Columbia over
the three-mile course in one of the
most thrilling races ever seen on the
