Canadian Cheese Trade + 

When Ranney left his native state + 

With his industrious, skilful mate, + 

They settled down in Dereham + 

Then, no dairymen lived near them. + 

It sailed with triumph o’er the seas, + 

’Twas hailed with welcome queen of cheese. + 

Early and bright in bygone years + 

One of a noble form appears, + 

Resolved the milk flood shall go forth + 

Flowing o’er his county to the north, + 

Now Perth has cheese crop large and fine + 

Thanks to cheese champion Ballantyne. + 
