How MAcARoxr Is MADE-Conceive, says th]
ton advertiser, of n table of very thick p3
Through this is made a hole shaped like a fun
large on the upper side OF the table, and tai
down to the size of the intended macaroni on ths|
side. This fannel-shaped hole is lined with nd
s~moothness. A niece of large wire, Of the size
hollow to be in the macaroni, is held upright 4
middle of the funnel by a small cross-bar 4
through it from side to side of the funnel
lower end of this upright wire, being even wj
lower end of the funnel and in the center Of !
a circular space, or empty ring arou}
which the dough is to pass and take id
aroni shape. On the table, around the fuu}
placed a strong metal hoop, wide like a cheese
which is filled with the w~ell-kneaded, waxy Z
On this mass is brought down a heavy weighaI
screw. which forces it through the funnel, the VI
piercing a hole in the middle oft, and the
bar dividing it into halves as it passes down
it has passed the bar, however, the tapering |
funnel forces together the edges of these halves, !
re-unite, and the mended tube !
thinner and thinner, till it takes its perfect ford
continuously from the lower side Of the
whence it is taken in lengths of q yard or NOR
no to day.
