Fairbanks and Co. make a the milk, for quick and uniform application of heat by water or steam, and its special adajitation to the Arnold patent process of cheese-making.

A cylindrical copper heat or fire box extends along the bottom of the vat about half its length, and a cut-off is provided by which the hot water can be kept wholly in a tank at one end or turned on to the vat, to circulate under and around the milk. The milk-pan can be easily lifted out of the tank by the handles of its woo<len frame, for cleaning, &c.; the whey is drawn off witii a sy[)lion. These vats are made in sixteen sizes, with capacity of from 100 to 800 gallons, and sold for from S(J special cheese-factory scale, with a compound to 300 dollars (Fig. 20s) beam, by which several different lots of n not exceeding 200 lbs. each, ixnired into the same receiver, can be successively weighed, the weight of each being shown on a separate beam. Each sliding poise is usually provided with a clamp, to hold it in place. There are different forms of spouts and conductors for conveying the milk from weigh-can to vat, but these do not need descrijjtion.
