and bloated when deprived of AW for several hours previously. Growth responses indicated that AW constitutes a major feed source (up to 31% of dry matter) for male dairy calves if supplemented with a high protein. There is no advantage from blending protein into the whey.

Cheddar cheese with increased polytm- saturated fatty acids. Noble P. Wong*, H. E. Walter, J. H. Vestal, D. L. LaCroix, and John A. Alford, U. S. Department of Agricul- tttre, Washington, D.C.

Cheddar cheese containing fat with linoleie acid of up to 30% (weight percent of total fat-

ty acids) was made from the milk of cows fed safflower oil "protected" with a coat of formaldehyde-treated sodium easeinate. Defi- nite off flavor, soft body, and raealy texture characterized cheeses containing high linoleic acid. These defects became slight when the percentage of polyunsaturated acid was re- duced to 12g or lower, l~rocessed cheese man- ufactured by m,lxing lots of natural cheese con- taining increasing amounts of p&.[yunsaturated fatty acid, to obtain linoleic acid of 10 to 12~;, had a flavor and texture as acceptable as com- mercially processed cheese. In Cheddar cheese, bleaching of the annato dye occurred when the polyunsaturated fatty acid was in- creased above normal.
