are more adapted to clubs and neighborhood co- 

 operative work than to the needs of a small 

 family. 



Water-Seal Outfits consist of a double- 

 walled bath and cover which projects down into 

 the water between the outer and inner walls, 

 thus making three metal walls and two water- 

 jackets between the sterilizing vat and the out- 

 side of the canner. A high temperature can be 

 maintained more uniformly than with the hot- 

 water-bath outfit, since the escape of steam is pre- 

 vented and a sHght steam pressure is maintained. 



Steam-Pressure Outfits are made to carrj^ from 

 five to thirty pounds' pressure and are equipped 

 with steam-tight sterilizer, lifting crate, ther- 

 mometer, or pressure gauge, safety valve and 

 steam petcock ; they are, of course, the most per- 

 fect equipment and economical of labor and fuel. 



Aluminum Pressure Cookers are combination 

 outfits for cooking and canning and have the ad- 

 vantage of being useful all the year around. 

 They are light in construction, economical of heat 

 and will carry as high as thirty pounds steam
