MOIST REFRIGERATION is BEST
FOR FOOD

Necessity for atmospheric balance
in the refrigerator is matter
which housewives would profit by
understanding better.
Cold alone is enough. Air may
be chilled to a temperature so dry
that it absorbs the moisture in the
food. Fresh meat dries out. Green
beans, lettuce, carrots or spinach
lose much of their crispness and
flavor.
Some moisture is absolutely
necessary to keeping perishable
foods in perfect condition. That is
why melting ice is ideal; the air
current in passing over the block of
ice gains just enough moisture
from the wet film on the ice. And
yet, the ice keeps the temperature
low enough to prevent mold on deli
cate berries and soft foods.
A properly built and we'll iced re-
frigerator can be depended upon
to maintain balanced atmospheric
conditions. The air will be cold
cause decay, and prevent their de-
'velOpment. In the coldest spot in
the refrigerator, directly under the
ice chamber, this will he about 45
degrees.
The air will be dry enough to
prevent mold. But it will be moist
enough to prevent food from drying
out and losing its freshness and
flavor Air must be more than
merely cold, if it would result in
good refrigeration.
Refrigeration by means of melt
ing ice automatically regulates the
temperature inside the ice-boX.
Temperature is reduced because the
ice-cake absorbs heat--as it melts.
In cold weather it melts slowly,
faster as temperature rises.
Ice in a refrigerator keeps food
in perfect condition by surrounding
it with circulating current of
moist, chilled air.
This current passes over the ice
cake, sinks into the chamber be-
meath the ice and then rises through
the food-laden shelves before re-
turning to the ice. The films of
water on the ice absorbs the odors
and carries them down the drain.
Then the purified, chilled air re-
peats its Journey.
