The open and closed cylinders make what is called a telescopic hoop. In use, the cover with widest rim is placed on the ways in the bottom of the press, rim upward; the cap cloth, as large as this bottom cover, is placed upon it. Witliin the rim of the bottom cover is set tlio open hoop, its cut edges touching; this is tiie bandager. The band- age, a little longer than the hoop, is fitted within it, tlic upper end wet and turned over the top of tlie hoop. The solid hoop is then put on top of the open one, and slipped down over it about an inch; the rim of the bottom cover and the closed hoop at the top keep the split hoop from spring- ing open and hold the bandage in jdace. The outer hoop is held in its position by little hooks, attached for the purpose. The cheese curd is then put in for any desired thickness of cheese, but always enough to prevent the outer hoop when slip- ping over the inner one, while pressing, from being forced quite down to meet the rim of the lower cover. The cap cloth and cover are then put on, the cheese turned on its side on the ways, and the top cover placed close against the head of the press. In the same manner a number of hoops may be filled, the top cover of one against the bottom of the preceding, until all are in place. The hooks mentioned are then unfastened and the pressure is applied. After pressing, the outer hoop, which has handles, may be easily drawn off the inner, and that may be sprung open enough to release the cheese pressed in its bandage. Coming from these Wilson hoops the cheese is always found moulded in perfect fo
