The rings of the screw-top are made of brass, and should not weigh over 1300 grams. The bottom should be protected from abrasion by bosses. (At the Museum of Comp. Zoology in Cambridge each can is enclosed in a wooden case which facilitates handling and may be used in transportation.) The edge of the cover-ring is notched for the admission of the iron bar with which it is screwed or unscrewed. Such a can costs S10-|13; this is more than the cost of a glass jar of equal capacity, but the latter is liable to break, especially during transportation, while the can is practically indestructible. § 311. Glass Jajrs.—With the exceptions indicated in the fore- going sections, glass is to "be preferred for all alcoholic specimens. Grlass jars may be considered in five groups: fruit jars; specimen jars with covers ; specimen jars with neck and ground glass stop- pers ; welted jars ; compressed jars. § 813. Fruit Jars.—There are many styles of these, but most of them are made of more or less opaque glass. The orifice is seldom more than', cm. in diameter. They are thus unsuited for exhibition or for holding wide specimens ; but their cheapness and strength adapt them, well for the storage and transportation of such specimens as they will Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Wilder, Burt G.
