LOCAL INTEILIGENCE.-7he he Mystery Of
Cracker Bakimy.-We called yesterday at he
clacKer bakery of Messrs. james u. Mason
d Co., to witness the operation Of some entirely
new machinery used in the manufacture aud
making Of bread. Many are familiar with
the old revolving oven which has been in use
for some time past but he has recently had
erected another on new principle, which
reaches from the first to the fifth loor. The
oven is about % feet high and IL feet wide.
Through the centre is "a heavy iron shaft,
with arms ike the paddle wheel Of a steam
boat, 10 which are attahched twentyfour per-
forated swinging shelves. The opening oi
the oven is on the second hoor and the ma
chinery is SO arranged that the shelves are
brought up to the aperture, where each re-
mains stationary for fifteen seconds, sutli-
cient time TO Eli it with crackers for baking.
The wheel revolves, and when the shelves are
brought immediately under the feeding door
the shelves are tilted, and the bread discharged
into the receiving baskets. The whole time
required the revolution Of the wheel is fifteen
minutes, and will bake fifty barrels of -four in
twelve hours. As soon as bread is discharged
iLis hoieted to the upper story, where it is
dried ready for packing.
In the PREPARATION OF the dough the -four is
first poured through a sitter, which Sits q
barre! in one and half minutes. after which
it is partially mixed and thrown into knead
ing mill, which works with worm screw, and
consistency. 1t is then passed through Il
heavy cast iroH roller and then again through q
smaller roller before it is placed in the ma
chine by which it is rolled to the required
thickness, and cut into form. For the whole
Of this work the labor of but three men anC
four boys is required. The whole Of the ma
chinery, including the steam engine aud bo
er are new and improved.-For the baking
OF loaf bread the oven could also be used L
advantage aud would bake one hundred snC
twelve barrels in twelve hours. The cake de
parment is on the first floor, and several mer
are constantly employed in the work, one or
binary hand oven being used for baking them
There is in this department small hand ma
chine for mixing dough, which does its worL
admirably. The establishment as EXTENDED
has front of 40 feet, depth Of 60 feet, and il
five stories high. The first and second floors
contain most ofthe machinery, while the uppe
floors are for the packing of the Manufactured
articles aud the storage Of materials for th'
work. 1t is now one Of the largest in thu
United States.-Batt Com. Adeertiser.
