Composition and Properties. - Principles of the Manufacture of Soft
Cheese. - Varieties of Soft Cheese and Their Process of
Manufacture. - Cream Cheese. - Double Cream Cheese. - Rennetted

farming or the production of dairy products on a large or small

instructions given as to the handling of milk are admirable, and
the particulars of making all kinds of soft and cream cheese leave
nothing to be desired." - FARMING PRESS.
