Ice CRoP.-The mildness OF last winter
(albeit il has been continued extraordinarily
late into the spring. has not prevented the
gathering In Maine OF an immense ice crop,
estimated at from I, 500 900 10 1900 900 tons.
About 800 900 tons have been already sold or
bargained for at 50 per ton, price which Is
largely remunerstive 20 the cutters. Not less
than 600 vessels will be required TO carry
away the product to the mari ets, and the yield
OF the keDnebec alone will require over 1000
vessels, or an average OF nearly fifteen vessels a
