THIS  valuable  distillers’  grains  contains  about 
31%  protein,  13%  fat.  It  is  twice  as  strong  as 
bran.  You  cannot  make  milk  economically  if  you 
use  bran.  One  pound  of  AJAX  FLAKES  does  the 
work  of  two  pounds  of  bran,  and  saves  $14  per  ton.

cream  cannot  be  pooled  in  a  common  tank 
and  all  share  alike,  whether  for  cream,  or 
table  butter.  It  would  look  as  if  with 
cheese  selling  in  the  local  markets  whole¬ 
sale  at  18%  and  19  cents  you  would  best 
put  the  entire  milk  into  cheese,  dividing 
by  the  fat  test,  and  let  the  complicated 
plan  of  the  three  per  cent.  Scalping  pro¬ 
cess  rest  for  a  while.  You  ought  to  have 
10,000  pounds  of  milk  a  day  tit  the  flush 
of  the.  season,  because  at  the  two  ends  of 
the  Summer  you  will  do  pretty  well  to 
have  4,000  pounds,  and  that  will  be  little 
enough. 
With  average  milk,  it  is  not  far  out  of 
the  way  to  estimate  nine  pounds  of 
cheese  for  100  pounds  of  milk  for  the 
year.  Possibly  a  little  more  in  the  Fail, 
when  the  cows  are  shrinking,  as  the  water 
in  milk  at  that  time  decreases  faster  than 
the  per  cents  of  the  solids.  Then  cheese 
is  not  cured  by  drying  in  suffocating  lire 
heat,  as  by  the  old  systems,  hut  within 
two  ot  three  days  out  of  the  hoop,  they 
tire  dipped  in  paraffin,  then  boxed  and 
put  at  once  in  cold  storage,  where  far 
more  perfect  curing  takes  place,  and  with 
only  about  one-third  of  the  loss  in  shrink¬ 
age,  quite  it  credit  to  go  with  linal  balance

Co-operative  Cheese  Making 
We  are  contemplating  organizing  a  co¬ 
operative  cheese  factory,  and  first  of  all 
we  must  convince  the  patrons  that  they 
will  receive  more  for  their  milk  in  this 
way  than  any  other  way.  Wo  have  the 
competition  of  a  creamery,  fan  we  af¬ 
ford  to  pay  more  than  creamery,  allowing 
a  certain  amount  for  skim-milk?  How 
rich  should  milk  be  with  buffer  fat  lo 
make  good  cheese?  Does  cheese  con¬ 
sume  more  than  a  given  amount  per  gal¬ 
lon?  In  other  words  would  cheese  con¬ 
sume  all  the  fat  in  the  milk  if  it  tested  5 
or  6  per  cent,  fat?  We  thought  of  skim¬ 
ming  all  milk  to  3  per  cent.,  making  it 
uniform  in  test.  Would  that  be  rich 
enough  for  a  good  cheese?  Me  would  use 
the  surplus  for  table  and  ice  cream  pur¬ 
poses.  What  would  you  consider  a  min¬ 
imum  amount  of  milk  to  start  with,  to  he 
on  | laying  basis?  M  hat.  would  it  cost  to 
put  up  and  equip  a  building  suitable  to 
work  up  from  3.000  to  10,000  pounds  per 
dav?  What  is  the  average,  pound  or  gal¬ 
lon,  of  milk  per  year  to  make  a  pound  of 
cheese?  >  ,{*  ®-
