NATURAL CAVES PROVIDED MAN WITH FIRST REFRIGERATION Electric refrigerators al.e the modern and time -saving solu- tion to man's age-old - problem of preserving food. Earliest methods of preserv- ing meat involved drying in the sun and smoking over a fire. Salt and spices were also used as - preservatives, particularly during the Middle Ages. The process of canning food, which started in the home, was not developed until the last • cen- tury. Keeping food cool' enough to prevent spoilage has always been a preferred. method of food preservation; however, be- cause it is -far less time,consum- ing. Natural caves, 'or holes dug in the ground, were used by prehistoric tribes as the first refrigerators. Ancient races dis- covered that evaporation of wa- ter through the ,wallsof porous clay vessels lowered the tem. perature of food inside, some- times low enough to form ice crystals. 'the Greeks and Rom- ans preferred ice and snow from the mountains to preserve delicacies. • On this continent, the pio- neers stored perishable food in cellars and caves, or lowered it in buckets into wells. Families who built their homes near a cold spring could also build a springhouse for storing food. Crocks of butter and milk were placed in troughs carrying the cold water. side the - refrigerator, and , the two - temperature .refrigerator was born. The small cold storage box eventually became an entire shelf across the top •of the re- frigerator, capable of storing frozen food for one or two weeks. And in many models, the cold storage box has be- come a true freezer, with sep- arate insulation and its own cooling coils, and capable of zero or below -zero tempera- tures. Ice, -houses, built to store ice cut from lakes and rivers in winter, gradually became a popular place to store food dur- ing warm weather. In urban ar- eas, commercial ice -houses us- ed the same source of supply. and manufactured ice was used in home ice -boxes well into the 1940s, although domestic refrig- erators had been on the mar- ket for 25, years. The earliest domestic refrig- erators were a definite improve- ment overice boxes, hut they were farm from perfect. One 15 cubic -foot model sold in 1919 for $1,500 shook the own- er's house so badly that several hundred dollars more had to be invested in a steel platform which could support the refrig- erator. Early refrigerators had wood- en chests covered with several coats of paint. Moisture is at- tracted to refrigerators, as it is to a pitcher of ice water on a table, and eventually the in- sulation inside the refrigerator's wood chest became water-log- ged and ineffective. The one- piece steel cabinet body used for electric refrigerators today provides much more effectively against infiltration of moisture into the insulation. The creation of the one-piece steel cabinet also introduced styling. Refrigerators no long- er had to look like upended trunks. Insulation has become more compact during the past few years, and modern refrig- erators with the same outside dimensions as a 20 -year-old model have much more storage space. Vegetable pans and meat trays were introduced in the early refrigerators because stor- ed food dried out quickly. By 1939, a new method of cooling had been developed which pre- vented drying out, but it also prevented the production of ice cubes. To solve this problem, a small storage box which per- mitted temperatures 22 degrees below freezing was placed in - I OTT 0� %Klin `fl i limit 1" ._�:. • SS 3, HULLETT, IS MAJOR'WINNER AT FESTIVAL Hullett Township 12th an- nual two-day festival wound up Wednesday afternoon with SS 3 School chalking up 112 points, to win the Hullett Township shield.
