sYes, 1 know said New York ice cream
manufacturer, 'ioe cream is commonly
! considered a perishable commodity, but as
! a matter Of fact we regularly ship ice cream
| long distances on the land and TO greater
distances by sea.
I'VE send ice cream by rail anywhere
within a radius Of SOD miles from New York,
to any point that can be reached within
tweye or fourteen hours. We send IL, for in
stance, constantly to Saratoga, TO Scran-
ton. Pa, and to faces even farther away,
and TO many intermediate points.
In the season we ship great numbers Of
orders by rail daily In all directions, and we
ship more OF less at all seasons OF the
year. We ship in this way not only ice
cream in bulk, but ice cream In all sorts Of
figures, shaped in molds, the figures being
taken out OF the molds before shipment
and packed In cases specially made TO hold
them, and then in ice, in which shape they
hide securely.
I'VE ship ice cream by rail not only to
hotels and 70 various individual users but
10 many dealers, in more or less distant
towns and cities, whose customers prefer
a New York cream Of known and standard
quality. Our ice cream Is regularly sold
In many places outside Of New York.
sour factories here are situated in various
parts OF the city, 80 located that from one
or another Of them we can reach any rail-
road station in the city with the smallest
possible loss Of time, and as the distance
between the railroad station and the con-
sumner at the other end Is not likely to
be great there is little loss Of time for
waste Of the packing there We sihHip by
factories located as they are here we are
enabled TO deliver ice cream at interior
points as quickly as those points could be
reached by an Individual traveller,
@But while we are thus constantly sending
ice cream TO many interior points over
long distances by rail, we send II, as said,
far greater distances by sea. We regularly
supply, as we have long done, many lines
of transatlantic steamers with ice cream
stocking them with quantities SUFFICIENT
10 last across and back.
"Ioe cream made Of poor materials and
poorly made and packed begins 70 deterior-
ate in two or three days, but ice cream
made as we make II, Of pure cream only,
and properly made and packed, will keep
in GOOD order for a long period Aboard
ship the cream goes into the vessel = cold
storaRe room, and there II Is kept for use
as required, We have stocked mediter-
ranean steamers also with ice cream sup
plies sufficient 10 last them the entire tnp
out and back to New York.
I'VE have shipped ice cream 10 Berlin In
Germany. This cream was Tepacked at
The port Of arrival on the other side and then
forwarded by rail 10 Berlin, where II arrived
In perfect condition.
But we have shipped ice cream from here
10 points far more distant still, namely, 70
China and 10 Australia. This cream was
ehipped first across the Atlantic 70 Bremen
haven. where II was repacked and placed In
the cold rooms OF steamers for China and
Tor Australia, 10 make these long voyages 10
he other side Of the world In every way
satisfactorily
$50 YOU see that while Il Ia true that ice
cream h a perishable commodity, II can
readily be shipped and We are constantly
shipping Il TO many PolnA ana 70 great
distanoess,~
