water entirely which will then be filtered, thereby
avoiding all impurities. This water is then poured
into galvanized bOxc, which placed in a tank OF
brine This tank has in it coils Of pipe placed that
ammonia gas expanding in the coil extracts the heat
from the brine and brings the temperature OF the
brine down TO twelve degrees above zero. The cold
brine freezes the water in the iron boxes, ana theh
we have ice.
Ice made from distilled water is much denser than
natural ice and will last much longer. We pr!-
