SCold Conservatory

The Cold Bath Conservatory
immediately
under the Ice-
Repository with a
common Door, or
the two Doors connected:
by which
means so long as
the Conservatory is
kept open for the
purpose of taking
out a Barrel, so
long will the Ice
in the Repository
be exposed to equal
degree of heat,
or as being proportional
the quantity of Ice may
be included & discharged into the conservatory.

A dry conservatory
in which
the articles might be
previously cooled
before their admission
into the Balneum
Conservatory.

For quick cooling
a barrel packed
up in a hot atmosphere,
lost
when plunged into
the Balneum, it
should retain its
heat long enough
to spoil the goods
- a Metal tube
forming an axis
to the Barrel
closed at an end
at the other open,
to be closed by a
cork, after the cooling
has been effected.
When the cooling
is supposed to have
been compleated,
the tube may be
withdrawn, and a bung
put in its place.

Preservanda

1. Lamb (Grass)
for the House Lamb
Season

2. Poultry - at
the dearest selling
age, & and for the dearest
season - killed
at any rate, as soon
as they have attained their
full growth.

3. Butter - for
winter use, without
salting.

4. Green pease &
beans for winter
use - French Beans.
Asparagus

5. Tender and unkeeping
fruits
for winter use ex.gr

1. Nectarines

For a Non-conducting
crating, instead
of cloth manufactured
use wooll or cotton
unmanufactured.

For light in to
collar instead of a
lantern or Candle
use the Mercurial
or Vacuum Phosphorous.

Or rather employ
Blind men.

The Barrels ranged
in stories of stages
or stories as in the Mast Paid
plan, or in single
stages?

Two concentric
brick arches seperated
& connected by
wooden ribs.

or the inner arch wood.

If in Stories, the
depth of the water
and consequent pressure
would be productive
of inconvenience,
by its action
upon the bottoms of
the arches, and upon
the barrels tending
to burst them & force
them in.

The thickness of brickwork

given in two strake

strength -
