Dairy farming : being the theory, practice, and methods of dairying dairyfarmingbein00shel Year: 1880 CHEESE-HOOPS AND BANDAGES. 463 platen by luruin a screw. This conveuience, and its being 10 dollars cheaper, constitute its only advantasjes. The general form is the same, but in place of the two long screws in the Hubbell press, the Naylor has two bars with teeth upon which fall two sets of pawls successively, as the platen is movetl by turning a crank. So by simply throw- ing out the pawls with a lever, pressure is removed, and the follower, then playing loosely upon the bars, can be pushed to any point. The upright presses made by Charles Miller and Son, of Ltica, New York, are an entirely different form of the gang-press. Two of these presses are illustrated, one for a single gang of cheese, the other for a triple gang. Other patterns made allow a double gang or one in sets of four, sixteen hoops. Tlie principles are the same in all. In the first figrure there is a series of levers connected PKESS-BOARD. with weights by means of rope and pulley, in such manner that the pressure is continued and followed up by the weights, and the screw is arranged so that it can be raised or lowered to accommodate any height of cheese. In the second figure the levers and weights are omitted, but the length of the screw is adjustable as in the other. The general construction is fully shown. The presses represented cost 50 dollars and 40 dollars respec- tively, and others of the same kind from 30 dollars to 90 dollars, according to capacity (Fig. 271). Millar's patent cheese-hoops, used with these presses, are shown in Fig. 272. They are made of heavy galvanised iron, with a perforated bottom and loose open rim, and are suitable for any ordi- nary screw-press. Over the inner spring hoop, which is raised to the height of the curd, the press- board shown in Fig. 273 is placed, and follower and rubber ring are needless. As
