Cheese Lab Here Obtains Federal Aid for Swiss Cheese Work
John Werren is to become a state employee on Wednesday, serving as a research assistant in the dairy division at the cheese laboratory to aid Swiss cheese quality work. The project, funded by federal appropriations under the 1946 research and marketing act, comes after a November meeting chaired by Fred Galli of the Wisconsin Swiss and Limburger Cheese Producers association. The Wisconsin Swiss industry relies on the joint state and private effort to improve cheese quality, with gains projected to boost regional revenue and output, including Wisconsin’s dominant share of national Swiss cheese production.
