Making Roquefort Cheese.

A boy was toe unintentional inventor of the famous Roquefort cheese. While attending his sheep among the mountains of southern France, he one day left part of his luncheon of bread and cheese in toe cave where he spent the noon hour. He forgot It for months and then happening In the cave he found it where he had left It on a rocky shelf. To his surprise it was not only edible, but excellent as sneh tastes go, the delicate mould formed giving It a fine flavor. With a shoot he bounded down the mountain gave his family a taste, They liked It as much as he and at onoe began to carry their cheeses to ths oave. When they were packed away, they tuoked bits of bread among them and left them for months. They still make eheeses In the same plaoe.
