STERILIZATION OF APPLE JUICE. 



EXPERIMENTS WITH KEGS. 



Further experiments on sterilizing in wood were made during (he 

 season of 1907-8, and the results show that wooden containers can be 

 successfully employed for fairly long periods of time. In these experi- 

 ments, 10-gallon kegs made of No. 1 white-oak stock, costing $1.05

each, were used. A pasteurizer of smaller size was employed, similar 

 to the one shown in fig. 1, but built of lighter material and costing 

 about $12 (fig. 2). The results were satisfactory and demonstrate 

 that this model will be found useful in work conducted on a small scale.
