The casein and albumen in 100 pounds of milk varied from 
2.63 to 3.69 pounds; in the green cheese, from 21.96 to 24.56 pounds; 
and, in the water-free cheese, from 35.26 to 39.58 pounds. There 
appears to be no relation between the amount of casein and 
albumen in milk and in cheese, so sharp and definite that we 
can tell from the composition of the milk how much casein and 
albumen a cheese will contain. One hundred pounds of green 
cheese made from normal factory-milk, as we have found it, 
should contain from 22 to 25 pounds of casein, while the water 
free cheese should contain from 36 to 39 pounds.
