By United Press NEW YORK, March 10.—United States Steel unfilled tonnage showed a decrease of 265,917 tons for February, according to reports issued today. Unfilled tonna.ge on Feb. 28 was 4,616,822 tons against 4,882,739 on Jan. 31, 5,031,364 on Dec. 31, and 5,284,771 on Feb. 1, 1925. In the Sugar Market (By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK. March 10.—The most significant thing about the decline, of raw and refined sugar quotations during the past two days has been the fact that the reductions have resulted in no corresponding: improvement in the demand. Refiners were not aetraoted to 214 cents raw sugar any more than they were to the market when it was one-sixteenth of a cent, higher. It was quite evident that plehtiful stocks on hand, together with the. prospect of large supplies of raws are providing an obstacle in the way of recovery.

GRAIN PRICES START LOWER Wheat Opens Sharply Below Tuesday’s Close. Bu United Press CHICAGO, March 10. Grain prices opened lower on the Chicago Board of. Trade today. Wheat opened sharply below yesterday's closing level. The biggest slump was in the May old delivery, which was off 2%c. May new dropped 2lie, July l%c and September %c. The reason for the sudden decline was attributed to the Government report on the farm reserve released after yesterday’s close, which placed the amount of wheat .still on the farms at 8,000,000 bushels above the figures of private estimates. The report was the chief topic of pit gossip this morning. Most traders were agreed that the report would be followed by a markedly bearish wheat market if not sharp declines. Liverpool opened fractionally to 1-cent under yesterday’s final figures, apparently In sympathy with American slump. Argentine wheat opened about unchanged. Com opened fractionally lower. Traders In this grain predict lower prices in vjew of the fact the Government figures placed the number of bushels of corn in reserve at 16,000,000 more than had been privately estimated. Oats also fractionally under yesterday’s final figures. This grain gives every Indication of being bearish for some time, the result of the Government report as well as the usual dull trade. Provisions opened unchanged. Chicago Grain Table (By Thomson & McKinnon) WHEAT— I’rev. High. Low. 12:00. close.

You can imagine the delight with which, thousands of years ago, when primitive man had learned to tame and milk goats, sheep and cattle, some wise old housewife discovered that if the milk is allowed to sour into a thick mass, then squeezed to press out the whey and allowed to age for a few weeks or months, the result is a nutritious and pleasant sort of food. In some syeh way cheese was invented in the far off, forgotten past. The oldest mention of it is about 1,400 years before Christ. Cheese is made from the curd of milk, which contains casein (a protein compound), a fat and other constituents. In making American cheese, the milk, preferably sweet milk rich in fat, is slowly heated to about 84 degrees Fahrenheit. Artificial souring of the milk or coagulation is then produced by adding rennet extract; which is obtained from the stomach of a calf or other young animal. After standing 30 to 45 minutes, the whey or watery portion is drained off and the curd is cut into small bits and stirred slowly so that more whey is drained out. The curd is then heated slowly to about 92 degrees and cooked for several hours, until the curd is firm when squeezed in the hand. The whey is again drained off and the curd turned and piled. When well drained, the curd is ground or thoroughly broken pared with 71.3 per cent of the 1924 crop. Oats to be shipped out of the counties where grown amounts to 24.6 per cent of the total held, compared with 28 per cent of the previous crop. About 54.8 per cent of the rye crop will he shipped from the counties where it was gTown, compared with 57.9 per cent last year. Barley to be shipped from counties where it was grown totals about 35.5 pc-r cent, as compared with 37 per cent last year.

up by stirring, and salt is added. After this It Is pressed Into shaping molds or "cheese hoops,” lined with cloth, which will cover the finished cheese to keep it clean. The cheese is then put away in a cool, dry place to ripen. In the process of ripening, many types of cheese become streaked with mold, which gives them a characteristic highly prized flavor The mold is sometimes artificially cultivated and introduced into the cheese before it is put away to rioen According to the amount of water it contains and the method of ripen ing, cheese is classified as hard or -soft. The best known cheeses, their characteristic qualities, and their places of crigin are: Brie, soft white cream che.ese, France’ Camembert, soft rich cheese, France; Cheshire, hard dry reddish cheese with blue-green mold, England; Edam, hard mild reddish cheese, pressed in round molds and dyed crimson on the outside, Holland; Gorgonzola, hard rich cheese with green and red mold, Italy; Gruyere, hard yellowish cheese full of holes, Switzerland and France; Limburger, soft cheese with a very strong flavor and odor as the result of ferementation induced by keeping it exceedingly moist while ripening, Holland; Parmesan, hard, i greenish skim-milk cheese, Italy; Roquefort, slightly soft cheese made from sheep's milk, streaks of mold, ripened in caves, France; Stilton, hard rich strong cheese streaked with mold, ripened for two years, England; Swiss, similar to, Gruyere, Switzerland.
