NEW MODE OF RENnING LARD


In our walks among the pork houses
yesterday, we noticed al Reynolds & Ir.
wins the operation Of Amelung's new
Patent Apparatus for rending lard by
steam, instead of the slow old mode Of
frying it out in kettles. This new meth
cd strikes US as combining many adVan-
tSgeS over the old one. The lard, in leaf
and strip, is thrown into large wooden
vat, some Ten feet in diameter, where it
is thoroughly melted by a volume of
steam being poured upon it. 1t is then
conveyed to another val underneath, the
water thoroughly evapOrated, and the
melted lard drawn off into kegs and bar
rels One hundred and fifty barrels per
day can be thus rendered, with the labor
OF two men, there is no possibility of the
lard being burnt-and every particle Of
it in the hog is thus saved, which cannot
be done by any press, however powerful.
We are moi very conversant with these
matters, but The subject is apparently Of
sufficient importance to attract the notice
Of those interested in this business. The
operation Of the steam renderer can be
Witnessed every day at the packing house
