B y RUTH CUHKENT
CHEESE BUYING GUIDE ? That
centuries-old art of cheese mating
bit progressed to a point whore
today there ia literally ? cheese
to (bit every taste, mood, or oc
casion.
Cheese ia one of the most nu
tritioua fooda.
Today's consumer may choose
from a large variety of natural
cheeses, process cheese, and re
lated products.
Age or degree of ripening, which
influences flavor, ia noted on the
labels of certain cheese varietiee.
For instance, Cheddar cheeae is
a firm ripened variety with a
curing period of from one to 12
months or more. Colby, also a Arm
ripened variety, ia softer and more
open than Cheddar. Swias, with ita
?weet-nut-like flavor, is easily rec
ognized.
Two other firm ripened varieties
are Gouda, with a mellow nut-like
flavor, and Provolone, with a
smoky, salty flavor. Parmesan and
Romano, both Italian, are examples
of very hard ripened varieties.
Cottage cheeae, a aoft unripened
variety, haa a mild flavor. Two
other aoft unripened cheeses are
Cream and Neufchatel ? they have
a mild acid flavor.
Of the soft ripened varietiea,
Brie and Camambert are two which
range from mild to pungent in
flavor. Another, Limburger, haa a
highly pungent and very strong
flavor.
Blue-vein mold ripened varitiea
such as Blue (or Bleu), Roquefort,
and Gorgonzola, use a culture of
mold in the ripening process, giv
ing each ita peppery flavor.
Add a new cheese to your shop
ping list. Some you will have to
cultivate the taste for, but give
them a try ? at least some of them.
It ia time to start thinking about
iria again for they can be planted
from July until late in the fall.
If you are planning on ordering
any new iris this year make your
list now and get your order in.
In this way you will be sure of
getting the first choice of the
rhizomes.
Your iris may be planted as soon
as they arrive, providing you avoid
planting them during the heat of
the day. If you are not going to
plant the rhizomes as soon as they
arrive, open the package at once
and spread the roota in a cool,
dry place.
In a light soil plant the rhizome
just under the surface of the
(round la ? bole urge enough to
allow the full ipread of tbc root*.
The top ?< the new in* mould be
a little above the level of the
ground. The soil should be damp
at the time of planting. Pack the
?oil firmly around each rhuoine.
Since your new plant ii planted
vary dose to the top of the ground,
cultivate very shallowly and very
carefully. Clnan cultivation is a
must as iris like strong sunlight.
Keep all dead leaves and weeds
away from the plant
After you have planted your iris
they should be kept damp until the
root system has Decome establish
ed. Iris does not require a great
deal of water after this.
Use non-acid forming fertilizer.
Steamed bone meal and superphos
phate maye be used at the time
ot planting. After the plants have
become established a complete
plant food may be used. Barnyard
manure is not recommended.
