Meyenberg, a native of Switzer- land, who formerly was operator in the mother plant of the Anglo- Swiss Condensed Milk Co. at Cham, Switzerland. Mr. Meyenberg, being a man with an inventive turn of mind, experimented on the evaporation and sterilization of milk, during the years 1880 to 1883. As the result of these experiments he decided that it was possible to preserve milk, without the aid of sugar. Migrating to this country, he applied for, and was granted a patent on his idea of jjreserving milk by sterilization, by the United States Government in 1884 (Patent No. 308,422), and again in 1887 (Patent No. 358,213).
