BRUSHY FORK CO-OPERATIVE CHEESE
FACTORY TAKES FIRST PRIZE AT
' N, C. STATE FAIR f
Nine factories entered wlese
the State Pair. Some of .theM
cheese were off flavor caused, by
milk and others were high ac
caused by not properly firm-
Ing in the whey. .
Brushy Pork factory, Watau-

believe if the cheese mfakers
will all attend the dairy school at
Boone next March. &omti im
provements can b6 made on the
uality in 1923. Sweet, sassy.
sour, tainted and old milk will be
made into cheese. A lot card on
each cheese will be kept by each
student. These cheese will be
put into cold storage and later in
the year the students will be
called together at some central
point to examine and score the!
cheese. In this way we can de
termine what the quality of milk
has to do toward making a good
cheese. Also learn what methods
manufacture to use on the dif
ferent qualities of milk. A maker
should not accept sour, gassy or
tainted milk. But no matter how
particular he may be, occasion-
lly, a can or two of inferior milk
will get by, and when it is pour
ed into the vat it must be 'made
up and for this reason a maker
must know how to handle differ
ent grades of milk.
I hope every man who is going
make cheese another year will
plan to take this course.
