Leading manufacturers of rennet, ex tract have been unable to secure the normal supply f :om Kurone du dug the war, and the scale pensin suhstitute may prove a satisfactory solution of xne proiuem. uregon ctieip men ae advised to try out this pepsin as n rennet substitute before the supply of rennet is entirely exhausted. The first pepsin cheese made at the College, May 31, has been sampled both during the makeup and up to the present time. No extensive investigations have been conducted as to the keeping qualities of the pepsin-made cheese. Soluable pepsin scales were used. These were dissolved in water at the rate of one. ounce of pepsin to one and Use our Wan A 1 column. ' i t c? ! tl i fmii'th pounds of water Armour's I". S.

The solution must be made up fresh each day a tow hours hclore use. The solution was added in the snme proportion as rennet, that is , 4 ounces solution to 1(100 poiuids of milk. Comparing the strength' of this solu tion with that of the rennet, the nep- sin coagulated the cample in 47 sec onds, the rennet in oO seconds. The ini'k was set at SC degrees V. ami at .1 of one per cent acid. It was 4 minutes from the time of setting to cutting. The loss of fat in whey amounted to .2(1 to .;! of one per cent, the oiiginal milk testing 4.S per cent fat. After setting, the process of handling the curd is exactly the same as when set with rennet extract. In order to bring the rennet back to normal it is absolutely necessary that cheese makers throughout the country cooppiato in every way with rennet manufacturers buying from fanners and local slaughter houses. Some load ers in this movement have gone so far as to suggest that rennet should he supplied only to those factories which in turn supply the manufactured ren. net for extract making.
