MAKING FAMOUS CHEESE.

ONE who has never visited the vii
lage of Roquefort, in the Depart.
ment of Aveyron, France, can form no
idea of the extent of that cheese in
dustry whose product is known the
world over from the name of the town
where it is manufactured.
The kind and quality of the milk Is
important. 1t must be pure iInskim-
med sleeps milk, unadulterated with
water or with any other milk. In
Spectors are employed and instru-
ments used to detect fraud. The green
hills of the Aveyron, which furnish
the fine pastures for feeding the sheep,
play no small part in the quality of
the milk and the celebrity of Rogue
fort cheese. n
In the Roquefort industry the cans
and everything pertaining to the milk
must be scrupulously clean. The
dairies are in dry and airy spots, and
the whitewashed walls, cemented
floors and screened windows are all
conducive to cleanliness. The dairy
consists of three rooms. In the second
of which a temperature of 63 degrees
F. Is recorded by the thermometer the
year round.
The milk is first heated to a tenn.
perature Of over 80 degrees and cur.
died by the addition of rennet. The
curds pass through various processes
of draining. sailing, molding, etc., but
to state this generally gives only
slight idea of the time and care neces-
sary. From start to shipment 1t re-
quires so to so days to turn out sat,
