This process is said 10 impart to

acquire by being kept for q number OF
years in cellar The spirit or wine is
placed in a special receptacle lifted
with two tubes called burgers and
the tubes are charged with high ten
sion electricity at from $4,000 TO 10000
volts The result is that all the bac-
terra fermeuts and impurities collect
in the tubes and are removed and all
further fermentation is stopped The
process is very rapid, and the cost IS
less than two cents per 100 gallons
Similar experiments are now being
made with beer and essential oils
