Water in the Vessels.
Uses
1. Lest the casks should
be liable to leakage, to
shew what changes if
any may be to the result
in such a case
2. Fish and flesh never
having yet been
known to be as such a
situation in a low and
regulated temperature,
to shew whether any
changes as yet unexperienced,
and production
of any useful
properties may
be the result:
as tallow by being
kept for a year or
so was stated in
Hunters
lectures to have become
harder and less soluble
by heat.
and flesh of all kinds
by in being exposed
in a box pierced with
holes to the current of
a river was converted
into spermacite.
3. To shew whether in each instance
whether immersion in water
prevents mouldiness.
Is not this the reason
why water is employed
in Russia in the Vessels
in which currants
and other berries are
preserved?
76
If there should be any
spare space perhaps
it might be as well to
add a few phials with
the fish and flesh preservanda
in suet,
dressed and undressed,
as proposed for the Casks,
supra No.
77
In the Commercial
Frigidarium, as the returns
upon any one
sort of article would
be made but once in
the year, hence the
advantage of finding
preservanda of more
sorts there are that
would be in demand
at different seasons
of the year.
Thus for example
Fruits of & Legumes different
sort would be to be inserted
in summer
extracted for sale in
winter.
Game on the contrary
would be to be inserted
in winter, extracted
in summer.
The vacancies left
by fruits and legumes
would thus be capable
of being filled by
Game.
In this way an
article which of itself
would not afford sufficient
profit, might
serve to fill up the
vacancies left by
more profitable ones.
78
To shew whether the
influence of water in
the preservanda were
modified by the proportionate
quantity of the
air contained along
with the water, in the
case of the sprats, peas,
and turnips phials
filled up with water
might alternate with
phials in which the
preservandum was
barely covered with water,
or only in part covered.
