This new development of the principle of association gives promise of rapid growth, and of solid benefit to the dairy interest. We have already stated that the skimmed milk of the creameries is made into cheese. The manipu- lation is the same as in the manufacture of whole- milk goods, but more rennet and heat are used in coagulation, and a greater amount of acid developed in the curd before pressing. Creamery cheese is to a large extent exported, being suited to the trade of warm countries. Some years ago an attempt was made at improving skim cheese by adding to the milk an animal fat known as "oleomargarine/' which, it was believed, would in coagulation become incorporated with the curd, and so take the place of the butter removed. A patent was taken out on the process by Mr. H. O. Freeman, who built a large factory at Ridge ^lills, near Home, , where it is carried out on a large scale. As in another part of this work the subject is treated more at length, we will not enter into a description of the process, but simply remark that, after having seen it at the Ilidge Mills establishment, we do not consider it a success, and believe that a more palatable and saleable class of goods may be made from skim-milk than from any to which foreign fats have been added.
