French Agricultural Inquiry. 



case of Gruyere, no separation of the kind of cheese manu- 

 factured was made in 1882. It appears that more Gruyere 

 cheese is now produced from a gallon of milk, but the 

 increase is not so great as among the remaining kinds taken 

 together. No particulars are given from which a comparison 

 of the quality of the cheese made in 1882 and 1892 could be 

 drawn. A very large increase is shown in butter, of which 

 129,665 tons were produced in 1892, as against 73,515 tons 

 only in 1882.
