Mr.. Edt0r:-Haying previously noticed sew

account might prove interesting TO your readers
OF the business carried on here during the past
spring, by the Jones Pond Ice Co.. composed
OF parties from Cherry field Maine, who place
the supervision Of their work in the hands Of
George Wakefield and Eoen Wood. two enter
prising members Of the corporation who, by
active operations have furnished employment
for Il number of weeks TO an average crew of
forty men and ten horses in building their
sluice-way-cuttiBg the ice and putting it into
their store houses which they have erected in
the mean time and where they now have, after
shipping four cargoes nearly five thousand ton.
stored for later sales.
We douht if better facilities for storing and
shipping iee-can be found within the limits Of
the state, as the pond is only forty rods back
from the piers from which Ice can be shipped
three fourths Of the years and Its surface is
thirty feet above the salt water level which
gives an ample grade for . siuice-way and
many q cake has found its way from the pond
to the present site Of the buildings 10 sixty sec
onds.
This company will before another year ex-
tend their wharves-erect and complete sever
al new buildings and lay between them and
the pond, permanent sluice-wsy up into
which the ice will lie carried by an endless
chain run by water power-thus saving the ex-
pense OF horse teams, and we now have sufi-
cient reasons to believe that the business thus
commenced will become permanent and great
ly increase or years to come as the quality Of
the ice, which has already been pronounced by
competent judges equal or superior to any in
the state, is attracting the attention of other
capitalists to this quarter who evidently mean
business.
