Method Puzzle though the prin-
to the Uninitiated. nrocsss nv which
il is accomplished has been the prop
erty Of the human mind for many CEN
turies. In the absorption method ad-
vantage is taken of the fact that water
viii absorb many times its volume of
anhNdrous ammonia gas. This process
causes absorption Of the heat from the
pipes through which the ammonia.
liberated from pressure. flows and re-
friseration follows. In the compression
method. most generally used. the am
monia gas is compressed under high
pressure. and then condensed into a
liquid by cooling with water Pressure
is then removed and the liquid expands
to a gas and absorbs the heat from the
pipes. These pipes may circulate through
brine in which, are immersed the cans
of pure distilled water to be frozen.
The brine does not freeze as quickly
as pure water. and its temperature is
kept so low that it will freeze auNth:n=
about it.
The frosted pipes of the cold storage
plant are familiar sights to most Ameri-
cans. The. processes used tof course.
there are many variations, are just ,,is

the air bubbles in the water were i'm

occupied by fever patients by TAX
ing advantage of the absorption of heat
from surrounding objects by expanding
volatile gases. He was so successful as
to make actual ice as early as 1915 In
1850, in the Madison Hotel. in his home
town. he publicly exhibited his machine
and made ice with it. He was granted
the first patent for an ice-making machine
in the same year. The New York papers
made fun of the invention and DR.. Gorrie
could not get enough money to enable
him to make experiments along large
lines. He died in 1862 without having
seen the success of the line of work which
he had begun. Jacob Perkins an .Ameri-
can engineer living in England. had made
some successful experiments with cooling
apparatus several years before. Prof.
Alexander Twining in America, and

about the same time with experimental
machines.
