FREEZING FISH.

The wholesale dealers of Fulton Market have per-
fcctcd plan whereby fish now obtainable only in
the summer season can be supplied in the depth Of
winter. The Fish Market Association have caused
to be constructed on Front street large freezing
house. which il the heat of summer keep the fish
at temperature above zero, thus entirely checking
decomposition. When the fish market is
stocked the best selected for freezing, removed
to the freezing houses cleaned and then placed in
freezing pans covered with ground ice and SALT thus
excluding the air while the process of freezing
is going The Front street refrigerator is
divided into three sections, each capable OF
being divided into six boxes and the
walls coated with zinc, second or inner wall or
the same metal separating each apartments space
oil several inches being left between the wall of
each subdivision, with oblong Sits permitting the
air from those spaces to pass into the apartment.
The spaces filed with ground ice and rock salt.
1000 pounds OF the former and fourteen bushels OF
the latter being required daily to keep the tempera
ture up to freezing point. 1t is claimed that the
fish can be unfrozen when required, and that they
will be as good fresh fish. In addition to the
freezing house OF tho Fish Market Association there
in this city two houses constructed by private
enterprise and it is calculated that before Septem
