DOMESTIC ECOXOMY. 



[Chap. IV. 



somcwlicro about the j'car 1850. Since that time it has heen greatly extended 

 in Central and Northern New York, and considerably in Northern Ohio. It 

 is like the manufacturing of any other farm produce, except that this is 

 usually carried on upon joint account of tlio producers of the raw material. 

 The success of this mode of cheese-making has now become fully established. 

 It not only lessens the expense of manufacture, but improves the quality of 

 liio cheese. The establishments vary greatly in size, using the milk of from 

 one hundred to fourteen hundred cows. Tlie business has become so im- 

 portant that regular organizations have been efteeted, botli in New York and 

 Oliio. To enable our readers to consult M'itli those already engaged in the 

 business we give the following list, naming the owner or superintendent and 

 location of a number of establishments represented in a convention held at 

 Home in January, 1864. This list, though representing only a portion of the 

 dairy interest, shows how the subject has affected the minds of fanners in 

 the central part of New Yorlc.
