yertible bond, made of limburger
cheese, which is stronger and more
durable. When this is done you can
tell the rich from the poor man by the
smell of his money. Now-a-days many
OF us do not even get a smell of money.


but in the good days which are coming
the gentle zephyr will wait to us tn.
able-bodied limburger, and We shall
know that money is plenty.


The manufacture of cheese Is a buSi-
ness that poor man can engage in as
well as the rich man. i say it without
fear of successful contradiction, and say
it boldly, that poor man with, say
two hundred cows, if he thoroughly
understands his business, can market
more cheese than a rich man who owns
three hundred oxen. This is suscepti-
BILE OF demonstration. If my boy show
ed desire to become a Statesman, |
would say TO him, ''Young man, get
married, buy a muley COW, go 10 She
bOygan county and start a cheese fac
tory" Speaking of cows, did it ever
occur to you, gentlemen, what saving
it would be to you if you should adopt
muley cows instead of horned cattle:
1t takes at least three tons of hay and
large quantity of ground feed annually
to keep pair of horns fat, and what
earthly use are they? Statistics SHOW
that there are annually killed Al, 900
(.ran h. l..
pass laws to muzzle dogs, because one
in ten thousand goes mad, and yet more
people are killed by cows. What the
country needs is more muley COWS,
Now that l am on the subject, it may
be asked, what is the best breed for the
dairy? Ny opinion is divided between
the SOuthdown and Cochin China.
Some like one the best some the
other, but as for me, give me liberty or
give me death.


There are many reforms that should
be inaugurated in the manufacture OF
cheese Why should cheese be made
round? i am inclined to the belief that
the making of cheese round is a super
stition. Who had not rather buy good
square piece of cheese than a wedge
shaped chunk, all rind at one end, and
as thin as COngressman's excuse for
voting back-pay at the other. Make
your cheese square and the consumer
will rise up and call you another.


Another reform that might be inau-
gurated would be TO veneer the cheese
with building-paper or elapboard, in
stead of the time-honored iece of tow
ell. never saw cheese cut that didn't
think that the cloth around it had seen
service as a bandage on some other
patient. But may have been wrong.
Another thing that does not seem to be
right, is to see so many holes in cheese.
1t seems to me that solid cheese, one
made by one of the old masters, with
holes IN i'll do not accuse YOU of
cheating, but don't you feel little
ashamed when you see cheese cut.
and the holes are the biggest part OF il:
The little cells may be handy for the
shippers, but the consumer feels the
fraud in his innermOst soul. Among
the improvements made in the manu-
facture of cheese, must not forget that
of late years the cheese does not Tesem-
BILE the grindstone as much as it did
years ago. The time has been when, 4
the farmer could not find his grind
stone, all he had to do was to mortize a
hole in the middle of cheese, and turn
it and grind his scythe. Before the in
vention of nitro-glycerine it was good
days work 10 hew of cheese enough
for a meal. Time has worked wonders
