THE BUTTER FLAVOR.
BY Freezing 1t Can Be Retained for 81,
Months or More.

Months or More.
Concerning cold storage of butter,
we will say that there is only one
method that will keep butter so as to
preserve its first rosy flavor, and that
is by freezing it.
The old method of cold storage by
holding it at temperature of 3s to 40
degrees would keep the butter from
getting rancid, but it would soon lose
its fine flavor and show a sort of dead,
cold-storage taste. If refrigerators are
constructed on a system whereby a
temperature of from l6 to 20 degrees
can constantly maintained, butter can
be held in sweet rosy condition six
months. Recent experiments have in
Dictated that it is better to go down
even as low as degrees above zero.
The butter does not lose it's flavor
quickly when brought into consump-
ton. The sixty pound package, either
in tubs or firkins, is probably the best
form of package for this work.

SO imbued their minds with the spirit

AT the cold Of 42O degrees below
zero, produced by Prof. Dewar, the
tensile strength of iron is doubled and
it will stand strain of sixty, instead
of thirty tons to the square inch. IT is
believed that the particles of iron and
all other substances are in constant
motion, which increases as they are
heated until they liquify, and that the
very low temperature increases their
strength by retarding the motion of
the particles and giving them a greater
power of attraction for each other,
