ICE.MAKING IN THE SOUrH.

An article from Columbia, South Caro-
lima, says that the making Of ice in antici. O
patton of short supply next summer, is |
going ON briskly in that vicinity and othar
parts of the South The ice is manufact-
ured by machine made in Europe. The
process is chemical, solution of ammonia
being the agency. machine in use in
Columbia cost $4,000, besides several
hundred dollars for freight and other ex-
penses. This is the largest size made.
There are five sizes. The writer says, :, I,
This machine ordered is the largest
made by the German manufacturers, who,
have five sizes, as follows: First, the one
just mentioned: secondly one costing
$4,000, requiring ne-horse power steam
engine, and turning out 400 pounds Of ice
an hour; thirdly, one costing $4,000,
worked by hand and turning out 200
pounds OF ice an hour; fourthly. one cost,
ing $2,700 worked also by hand, and
turning out 100 pounds Of ice every hour;
and filthy, one which is the smallest size
built by the firm, costing 81, 800, worked
by hand. and turning out 80 pounds OF ice
every hour. ~sI4 y aa 40
The cost of manufacture, including
labor and material, and as;ng the largest
machine, is estimated at nine cents for
100 pounds of ice. At this rate large
profits may be expected. Last Summer
the regular price OF ice in Colnmbiaa was
two and halt cents a pound, and at re-
tail, three cents 'f 7s..i3 E''9'.s ss'a''i ~.
