December 24. 1958 Dairy Products Important m Economy of Italians Rome iU.Rj Dairy products occupy an important place in the Italian economy, both in regard to size and quality of produc tion. o The total market value of Ital ian dairy products in 1955 was well oyer 300,000.000.000 lire (S430,CflO,000 and this year's figure is expected to be equal if not higher. The figir is he equivalent of 15 percent of the entire produc tion ir? the Italian agricultural and cattle breeding sector. Of the total of 8,200,000 tons of milk produced yearly in Italy,. 4.400.000 tons are used 'for in dustrial processing and con verted into cheese, butter, con densed and powdered milk and other products. Cheese-making is. in fact, one S?f the rribsl important single utilizations of milk, and - this phase of agricultural activity is concerUrated jn th northerfi re gions of Italy, Lombardy, Em ila, Veietiaoand Piedmont. .

The (Jrana cheeses, whpn two years old or morrt. are mr.t suitable for seasoning, while tbose of tHis type one-year old make the best dessert cheeses The typical grana cheese come fr8i the north arl north-central provinces of Repaio Emilia, Ho dena. Mantua and Parma (hence the name Parmessan or Parme- giano chee"se). Another type of hard dierse of Fpecial impoance, because it contributes on a large scale to exports, is Pecorino, made from whole sheep's milk. This cheese has been made for centuries on the island r Sardinia and in the regions U LM-ium and Apulia in central and southern Italj,', respectively. Soft Cheeses Gorgonzo, named from the little tow of that name near Milan, is a fat. uncked cheese made af cow's milk, with char acteristic green streaks due to the growth of special fiinds of mold.0 giving it its sharp and unique favor. Onlv slicSt aiis opopular are such cheeses as Caciocavallo and Prov?jjpne. Both are made of fi brous paste and ere originally produced in Campania, Abruzzo and Apulia. They have been in creasingly produced elsewhere n modern times acquiring slight differences in taste and shape. Both Caciocavallo and Provo- lone are excellent dessert cheeses when they are less than six months old. When they are older, they are also very good for seasoning. A special characteristic of these two cheeses is that they can readily be preserved for long periods of time in hot climates, thus making them highly adapt ed for exportation. Other soft cheeses include Stracchino and Quartirolo from the north, and Scamorza, Moz zarella and Provola from the south. The latter are meant to be eaten fresh or to be used as a' basis for a number of typical dishes immediately after having been cooked. Hard cheeses worthy of men tion are Asiago, Vezzena, Fbn tina, Montasia, Sbrinz, Emmem thai and Gruyere. Boy Run Over By Freight Train lives Notingham, England U.R) Ten-year-old Paul Potter was under treatment today for cuts and bruises the only injuries he received when he was run over by a 48-car freight triln. The' freight train loomed up out of the fog at suburban Ged ling station Sunday, striking the boy and sending him sprawling onto the tracks. He somersaulted twice and fell flat between the rails in front of the train. The train roared over him. The dazed boy twice tried to rise as horrified rail workers screamed at him to stay down. Couplings between the fast-moving freight cars knocked him flat again and saved his life. He lay on the ground, groggy until the last cars raced past. Rail workers rushed him from the tracks to a nurse who had been waiting on the station plat form. He was hospitalized for a check-up. n WHATS THE PERCENTAGE, YOU WHO walk the lonely TOUCS OE STAND THE ICY WATCHES ON THIS CHCISTWAS DAY?
