THE ICE RYENTWENH

|
Our reporter dropped down to the
shores of Okabena Lake the other day
to see the process of gathering crop
which the grasshoppers cannot destroy.
The modus operandi is as follows:
The ice is furrowed out both ways
with an lce:plow which cuts about
inches deep. 1t is then broken Oft in
ice RATS about twenty feet long and
floated to the shore through chute or
channel. Here it is cut or divided the
other way, by a long-handled cold-chis-
ell, into blocks or cubes. The blocks
are seized at this point by an arrange
ment of hooks, ropes and pulleys and
carried up tram-way. or ice-way, and
run along narrow platform which, is
raised above the ground to about the
height of a wagon bed. The wagons
are backed up to this platform and the
cakes of ice are seized with hooks and
rapidly loaded or slid into the wagons,
and then hauled to the cars.
A number CT men are kept busy get
ting the ice out and engineering the
blocks to the platform and about twen-
ty teams have been kept busy hauling
them away.
The parties engaged in shipping the
ice are A. s. Orbison & Co., of Kansas
City, Mo. They shipped last week a.
bout $50 car loads and expect to ship in
all about 500 loads, ten to twelve tons
to the car. This is to be used prin-
cipally by the packing houses.
The gathering of this ice harvest will
be a help to good many Of our people.
On Saturday evening last some six
hundred dollars were paid out to the
men.
Mr.. Orbison pronounces our Okabe-
ma ice the finest ice he has seen. It is
now about twenty inches thick. MIR.
q. expressed himself as unable to ac-
count for the thickness Of the ice when
that being gathered as far north as St.
Paul is quite thin compared to the O.
kabena crop. This is doubtless due to
the fact that Okabena is probably the
highest lake in the State and that this
''climate of the mountains" has full
sweep at it during the season when the
ice crop is maturing.
Since writing the above, other par
ties have arrived and are now taking
out large quantities of ice. Messrs. E.
n. Vindquest & J. E. Sale, Of Kansas
City, are operating in the East Lake.
They are stacking what they take out
and expect to put up from 5000 to 1O,-
600 tons and ship as needed for the
retail trade.
Messrs. Hall & Spencer, of Creston,
Iowa, have erected an ice chute on the
narrows between the two lakes and
are running the ice directly into the
cars. They expect to ship several hun
dred car loads, the cars being obtained
Of the G. B. & Q. road.
The st. Joseph Ice Company, repre-
sented by John Kieffer, Superintendent
and Manager, is also taking out ice.
They expect to ship about 10000 tons
for the retail trade of St. Josephs.
This sudden movement upon our ice
works has called into requisition about
every spare team and man in the vicin-
ity. The several companies are paying
out good deal of money, and if the
weather continues favorable for the
next week or two, they will distribute
several thousand dollars week among
our people.
