PACKING OYSTERS IN SNOW.
low the Romans Did it Many Gen,
tulles Ago.
. We are apt to think of the use of ice,
or the obtaineig Of a. freezing tempera -
lure in warm weather to preiserve meats
and otherpertshable articles, as a prec-
Lice of quite recent. origin.
The Romans, however, understood and
practised many centuries ago the art of
Maintaining an artificial temperature.
They were fond -of oysters, and trans-
ported them _inland by the use of snow.
Each oyster was packed in closely -
compressed snow, Which was sur-
rounded by a layer of straw, and that
In turn by a wrapping of woollen cloth.
This method succeeded so well that
Apielusswas able to send oysters from
Brindisi to the Emperor Tetuan in Ar-
menia.
These oysters, by the way, were from
Lake Lucrinus, in Italy, which was fa -
:nous throughout the ancient times for
the excellence Of Rs oysters.
They were. eye "Whitstable Natives" of
antiquity; and the Emperor Augustus
thought so highly of the lake which pro-
duced them that he provided it with a
consiant supply of waler from the sea
by culling an artificial chaimel at a con-
siderable expense.
11 would be interesting, to compere
the twenty of these ancient oysters with
ease of eur own day, 80 might possibly
be clone if T.ake Lucrinus was still In ex-
istence. But the spot where Apicius
gathered his oysters for the Emperor
Trejan is now covered by- a mountain
about 400 feet high,' which MS raised
during 410 earthquuke and volcanic erup-
tion in the year 1533. ,.
