f "The Post's" London correspondent reports that the Dairy Committee of the council of the Royal Agricultural Society ■were recently asked to support the Somerset Cheddar Cheese Factors' Association in requesting that the use of the term "cheddar" should be restricted to cheese actually made in England. : The committee, after making exhaustive inquiries, decided that the name "cheddar" denoted cheese- that was made by that particular process, and that if the country of origin was distinctly shown on the product, it' covered the use of it, and ought not to be objected to. It was stated that while England claimed superiority for the cheddar cheese made in Somerset, the cheddar from New.'Zealand wife, rich in butter-fat, and, provided it was, properly labelled as coming from New Zealand, and did not pose as English, the society could not take exception to it.
