Porcelain Enamel on Steel is ef|ually non-absorbing and sanitary and is practically in-destructible, as the porcelain is fused to thesteel at a very high temperature. This liningcan be put into the refrigeratoi- either in sheetsor in the form of a seandess chamber, the latterbeing the most recent development in refrigera-tor construction and obviously both sanitaryand i^ractical. Insulation and proper circulation are thenext important points, for it is the insulationin a refrigerator that determines whether it. The Brunswick Refrigerating Co., New Brunswick, N. ,T., show here tw^o metliods of !-lation recommended for the small refrigerating plant.
