nient, of stone. It is emptied by means of a 

 portable double acting pump, to which is fit- 

 ted a pipe for conveying the juices to a cask 

 fixed upon a cart for transportation. In the 

 covers of the reservoir is a man-hole which is 

 covered by an iron lid and fastened by an iron 

 bar and padlock. Previous to removing the 

 juices from the reservoir (the capacity of 

 which is generally about six hundred gallons,) 

 add in, forthwith, the disinfecting liquor, for 

 instance, sulphate of iron, and stir for some 

 time until its incorporation is completed. The 

 juices are then drawn oflf through the same 

 hole as above, by means of a pump which will 

 remove about five hundred gallons per hour. 

 The solid matters are converted into poudrette 

 by admixture, either with a secret powder 

 of H. & Co., or else with that of Salmon, 

 which dries and disinfects them simulta- 

 neously.
