A Round.Bottom Mayonnaise Mixer

The principal feature of this new cream
whip and mayonnaise mixer is the round bot
tom, which enables the oval beaters to pick up
a small quantity Of cream, eggs or mayon-
naise and beat them as perfectly as if the jar
were filled to capacity The beater does not
extend down into the bowl quite far enough to
pick up one egg yolk, but it will handle two, as
we'll as any larger quantity.
The round bottom is a distinct improve
ment, especially as the jar stands firmly as
rock on the six little projections which hold
it steady. The jar has a metal screw cover,
through which projects the four-loop beater,
and the gear wheel and funnel are mounted
above.
This beater is worthy of special notice be-
cause the blades are slightly futed and so
turned that vacuum is created, greatly in
creasing the efficiency of the beater and short
ening the time necessary to whip the cream
beat the eggs or make the dressing, as the
case may be.
If the dressing is to be made, the flow Of
oil from the funnel above is controlled per-
