Ice Houses.-A gentleman in Railway NJ ]
writing TO the Editor of the American Farmer, OF
the subject Of ice houses, says" From the ex
perience we have had, it is best to have the ice sur
rounded with wooden curb, having small space
between that and the wal.-When our ice house
was built many years ago, we had such a curt
made of posts and panks pinned on them the
side next the ice-the ice then kept well, but think
ing it too SMALL removed the curb and filled al
up to the wall with ice, the consequence is, it doe.
not keep as we'll before, although the quantity il
greater-and we now intend to replace the curb
and as charcoal is found TO be one OF the best non
conductors of heat, 1t has occurred TO me that /
would be still better to fill up the space between
the planks and wall, with this substance

sIrahle effects appears a ilttle strange,
Dut we are Iuclined to give credit 10
he correctness of the remark. The
ugh price which the tobacco raised
acre comm nnds, has stimulated all
classes Of our ciitzens to dIIlgent in.
