into the upper,

stood twelve hours, an equal. quantity of
boiling water is introduced into the lower
one. At the end of another twelve [mull
the cream is taken off 'muck more easily
and perfectly than in the common way,
and is alio more abundant and richer. The
result of twelic, 'experiments carefully

a half pints of cream, which yielded, after

48 hours, 4 pints of cream, which yielded'
after churning 99 minutes, 90' oz. of but
