Milk, cheese and butter, a practical handbook on their properties and the processes of their production . ght, and even in a room constructed as described, twenty degrees below thatbest point, we should have the means ofraising the temperature at such times byfifteen degrees at the least.

Probably twenty degrees ofdifference is the outside limit ; but as thisis always possible in experience with autumn-made cheese, before it isready for the market, it must be provided for. But plainly the heatnecessary to keep the room right under such conditions, would be fartoo great for weather which, though milder, would still be too cold todispense with heating, and it is proper to provide for the regulation ofthe heat by stages, so that the loss of a few degrees maybe met withoutexcess, as well as the extreme of need without a failure.
