SEVER: TEST ely.
EN- ICE MACHINE

Early in the week, the Krieger Ice
Machine was given a severe test. A
brine tank has been installed and
an expansion coil placed in the tank
Several tests have been made with
this brine tank and each has proven
successful and demonstrates beyond
and doubt whatever that this machine
is a. first class ice machine and that
its builder George F. Kreger. The
machine is a small one and is intend.
ed for hotels, groceries, butcher shop
and priya- residences. After sew
erai tests had been made the machine
was stopped. Before going home that
evening, Mr.. Krieger placed a metal
receptacle containing water in the
brine tank and left it there over
might This was about five O'Clock
in the afternoon. (The machine had
mot been running for some ime). At
seven o'clock the next morning, Mr..
Krieger took the receptacle out OF
the tank and the water had frozen
solid. The ice weighed forty pounds.
The machine will make from 500 to
600 pounds of ice in "a hours
1t must be remembered that whea
the water was put in at night, the
machine had been running for some
time, which shows what an intense
cold was produced, an fact 48 hours
after the machine had been stopped,
the brine showed temperature OF
only ten above zero. The formation
of the sales company is going ahead
and it is exp cted that within a short
time, jhe actual manufacture OF
these lachines for market will be-
comm enced.
