The cows of die Lancafhire breed*, and of ic3. 

 different ages. CHEESE. 



The cbeeff, in quality and appearance, re- 

 fcmbles very much that of inferior Warwick-; 

 ihire, or the two-meal cheefe of Glouccfter- 

 fhire ; being lean and dry, cpnfidering the 

 fpecics of milk ; which was; neat, or nearly 

 neat, from the cow. 



This inferior quality is probably owing, in 

 a great meafurc, to the quality of the foil ; 

 and perhaps, in fome degree, to the method 

 made ufe of in feparatin.g the whey. 



With refpeft to the fy t not one cheefe in a 

 hundred (after the mifchief was firft difco-

 greater proof of the eligibility of the method 

 in tfcis cafe pra<ftifed, than that of my being 

 able to preferve the principal part of the dairy

* That fomething confiderable dependi on the breed or 

 variety of cow is evident from an experiment I made with 

 the milk of the Alderney cow ; the produce from which was 

 of a texture almofl as clofe and firm as bees-wax, and 

 nearly as high-coloured ; as different in quality and appear- 

 ance from the produce of the long-horned cows, as if they 

 were two diftincl fpecies of animals.
