ICE MADE IN HOME KITCHEN.
The problem of producing ice in
small quantities quickly and cheaply
has aparently been solved by a French
inventor, who has perfected a ma
chine which is cheap, simple of opera
tion, practically everlasting, and thor
oughly practical. It may be operat
ed by a belt connected with a steam
engine, by a small electric motor, or
b.- Hnd cranks.
The invention is a rotative com
pression and automatic machine, reg
ulating itself to all speeds, whatever
may be the temperature of the con
densing water used. The important
feature is a cylinder in which the
chemicals are sealed the latter not
requiring renewal and lasting as long
as the machine itself and which, re
volving in water, produces the ice. It
can also produce cold air.
The machine has no joint piece, no
pressure gauge, no suction or regulat
ing valve, It will work in water
reaching even 113 degrees Fahrenheit,
and saves ninety-eight per cent of
coling water and seventy per cent of
motive power as compared with any
other freezing machine known.
The Germans have also a new
freezing device especially adopted to
household and field hospital use: It
is very simple, and could be manufac
tured for about one dollar. It con
sists merely of a double wall tin ves
sel with a capaciey of five gallons.
The hollow space between the two
walls is about an inch across. By the
gradual admission of carbonic acid
into this hollow space through an
opening at the bottom, and from
there to the vessel proper through a
cross arm tube, it is claimed that
water may be converted into ice in
the space of sixty seconds, and that
meats, fruits, and beverages, such as
beer or wine, may be chilled or froz
en in a few seconds. This effect is
produced by the sudden great reduc
tion of temperature caused bv the.
rapir expansion of the carbonic acid,
which is admitted from an ordinary
carbonic acid reservoir. Technical
