How Koquefort Cheese is Made
It is supposed that hundreds of years
ago the south of France was disturbed
by volcanic eruptions, which slit up the
ancient roes, causing streams of lava to
flow from them. The new surface con
sists of basaltic rock, which in its turn
was fissured by eruptions and thrown up
011 a mountain range. The whole of the
interior of a mountain was thus formed
into caverns and caves, which belch
forth hot sulphurous springs. It is here
that the celebrated Roqnefort cheeses
are made.
The village of Roquefort is situated on
the Mountain Larzac, which is about
twenty-five miles in length and nearly
3,000 feet high. It consists chiefly ot
limestone, covered with sufficient pas
ture to feed the 300,000 sheep kept for
their milk. The caves being formed by
the displacement of rocks, consist of an
intricate labyrinth of open spaces and
passages connected with each other and
and with a subterranean outlet. A coo'
current of air, therefore, always of the
same humidity and temperature, flows
in every inturrupted stream through the
caves.
There is nothing in the milk or the
preparation of the cheeses that gives
them that peculiar flavor and delicious
mellowness for which they are renowned.
This is entirely effected by the method
which they are cured.
When the cheeses are ready for treat
ment they are taken to the caves and
after being allowed to cool are carried
to the salting room. They are rubbed
with salt on one side and then piled on
the top of each other until the cave is
full. After standing for twenty-four
hours or so, the reversed side is saPed
and once more they are piled tip as be
fore. The cheeses have to be frepuently
reversed in order that the moisture may
be even throughout, and to develop the
fungus which has previously been sown
in the curd.
In forty-eight hours the cheeses be
come viscous, and are rubl>ed with coarse
c oth. In thecourse of another two Oays the
fungus will appear on the outside in the
form of a sticky paste. This is carefully
scrapped off with knives, together with a
thin stratum of crust, and set aside for
food.
The cheeses are now sorted out; the
most solid ones placed on the floor. In
eight days time they become covered
withe a yellowish red mould, togetner
with other minute vegetations which is
removed and given to the pigs. The
scraping is continued until the character
of the mould changes, showing that the
curd has altered its condition, and an
nouncing the completion of the cure.
Then they are again carefully scraped
and wiped, and wrapped in tinfoil, and
are ready for the market.
Roqueforte cheeses have been cured
for centuries by this process and stand as
a triumph of uneducated art.
Is The Golden Rod a Fraud ?
The golden rod, about which so much
poetical stuff has been turned out, is
probably a prime nuisance. Many peo
ple attribute attacks of sneezing and hay
fever to bunches cf golden rod having
been brought into the house. Irritation
of the air passages is noticed by persons
who have stirred around in fields where
the flower was in bloom, the trouble be
ing probably caused by the pollen of the
plant. The-State veterinarian of Wis
consin says that the horses eat the flower,
go into a decline and waste awiy, both
blood and tissue being destroyed.
It will be of much interest to farmers
and horsemen to know that golden-»od
causes a fatal disease in horses resemb
ling consumption, The Veterinarian* of
Wisconsin, says that this disease has de
stroyed thousands of horses in Wiscon
sin and Michigan, and strongly urges
the destruction of golden-rod.

New Metals (or Coin.
Advices from Washington D. C., state
that experiments with pure nickle and
aluminum as substitutes for the present
nickel pieces and one and two cent
bronze pieces will be made at the mint
by order of Director Preston during Sep
tember or October. A resolution was
j passed by the House of Representatives
; authorizing such experiments. There is
some doubt whether the actual adoption
of a new metal for 'he minor coins will
be recommended at an early date by the
I treasury officials, even if the experiments
prove successful. The objection to a
change in any form of coins or notes is
the disposition of the public to refuse
the old forms and insist upon having the
new. This woul-t drive into the mints
for recoinage £14.000,000 in nickel pieces
which are now in circulation, and $7,500-
000 in pennies. The advantage claimed
for pure nickel, instead ot the alloy now
usen in five cent pieces is its greatei hard
ness, durability and distinctness of im

Foreign Bodies in the Throat.
The difficulty of removing fish bones
and similar obstructions impacted at the
lower end of the oesophagus is well
known, and various mechanical meas

to deal wit?i the difficulty. One of the
most simple, however, and as reported,
one of the most effectual, is to adminis
ter to the patient a pint of milk, and
forty minutes afterward an emetic of sul
phate ot zinc. The fluid easily passes
the obs:ruction, and is of course, rapidly
coagu ated in the stomach into a more or

forces the obstruction before it and so ef
