Of the remaining milk cheese is made, being warmed before it is coagulated. If the milk has begun to turn sour, it will not do for this purpose. Such thin milk as this is not very fit for eating, but the whey which separates from it in the making of cheese, is by some people made into _syra_. (See _v._ 1. 243. _n._ 11.) This is done merely by putting it, when cool, into a vessel or cask, when, if set by for a considerable time, it will become extremely tough. Most usually however it is boiled, and then kept for two or three days, when, some new milk being added, it is boiled up again to the consistence of flummery, and then set by in some kind of vessel. If it remains for a long while without being touched, it grows hard, and becomes _mesosmör_. (_v._ 1. 243. _n._ 12.) The blue milk above mentioned may be boiled like fresh milk, and does not readily turn sour. _Gos-mjölk_, or rather _Gäs-mjölk_, (from the Swedish verb _gäsa_, to work or ferment,) is made as follows. The butter-milk is set by in a tub till it begins to ferment, when about a third or fourth part of the quantity of fresh milk is added, the whole being allowed to work once more. A serum by this time is formed at the bottom, which is drawn off by means of a cock or tap, in the bottom of the tub, and used immediately for food. A similar portion of fresh milk is then put to the remainder, when more whey is, in due time, deposited. This practice is repeated from time to time for the space of a fortnight, at the end of which the milk in the tub becomes of a thick consistence, and is excellent eating. _Servet-mjölk_ (Napkin Milk) is made by taking a quantity of sour milk just beginning to ferment, when bubbles, like hydatids as it were, are formed between the cream and the milk. This is cut across in various directions, and the thicker substance taken off and hung up in a napkin, that the liquid part may drain away. What remains in the napkin acquires a firm consistence, and is eaten along with fresh sweet cream. EAST BOTHLAND. _August 11._ I departed from the house of the chief clergyman of Kimi, whose name is Forbus or Forbers, and that of his wife Christian. Here I observed the _Lumme_ of Wormius, (_Colymbus arcticus_; see _v._ 1. 27.) Its outermost toes were largest, and most naked; the next, or middlemost, smaller; the thumb, or inner most, very small. A skin of a squirrel, that had been caught in winter, was white towards the end of the rump, as were also the outermost toes, and the ears. In my journey this day I met with the _Stratiotes_ (_aloides_), and the _Butomus_ (_umbellatus_); as well as the _Mesomora_ (_Cornus suecica_), the spotted _Palma Christi_ (_Orchis maculata_), and the _Gnidium_. (This last could be no other than the Mezereon, _Daphne Mezereum_, formerly called _Coccognidium_.) I found also the Ladies' Slipper (_Cypripedium Calceolus_), but it was almost out of flower.
