SHIPPING ICE CREAM.
WARM WEATHER REFRESH
MENT SENT LONG DISTANCES.


Yes, ! knew, said q New York ice
cream manufacture according TO the
sun ice cream IS commonly considered
a DerlsaaDle coMn1o tlty, but as a mat
ter o. fact We regularly snip ice cream
lOng distances on the land aIJ 10 great
II distances by sea.
We send ice cream ~ rail anywhere
within radius Of 500 niles from New
York, to any point that can he reached
within l. OR i hours. We send ii. Tor
instance, constantly to Saratoga. to
Scranton, Pa. and to places even farther
away ard many intermediate points.
in the season We ship great numbers
Of orders by rail daily in ali directions,
and We ship more or 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 ii molds. the
figures being taken out OF the moIds be-
ore shipment and packed in cases spe-
cially made to hold them. and then in
ice in which shape they ride securely.
We ship ice cream by rail not only to
hotels and to various individual users
out to many dealers in more or less dis
ant towns and cities. whose custom
5rs prefer a New York cream of known
md standard quality. Our ice cream is
segularly sold in many places outside
If New York.
Cur factories here are situated in
various parts Of the city, so located that
rom one or another of them we can
gssca any railroad station in the city
With the smallest possible loss of time,
2nd as the distance between the railroad
station ard the consumer at the other
md is net likely to be great there is lit
e .CsS OF time for waste Of the packing
heTe We ship by express. on passen-
ser trains, and with our factories To-
e1eei as they are here we are enabled to
deliver ice cream at interior points as
quickly as those points could be reached
oy an individual traveller.
But while we are thus constantly
sending ice cream to many interior
points over long distances by rail, we
send it, as I said, far greater distances
by sea. We regularly supply. as we have
long done, many lines of transatlantic
ste amers with ice cream, stocking them
| with quantities sufficient to last across
and back.
Ice cream made of poor materials
! Ind poorly made and packed begins to
ieteriorate in two or three days. but ice
/ cream made as We make 1t, OF pure cream
t MY, REd properly naaa and packed,
will Kesb IN good order for long aeriod.
Aboard ship ti4e cream goes into the
TesseI's cold storage room and there it
IS kept for use as required. We have
stocked Mediterranean steamers also
VITA ice cream supplies sufficient 20 last
| them the entire trip out and back to New
York
we have shipped ice cream to Ber-
lin, in Germany. This cream was re-
packed a the port of arrival on the 9TH
9r side, and then forwarded by rail to
Berlin, where it arrived in perfect con-
dition
But We have shipped ice cream from
here to points far more distant still,
namely, to China and toAustralia. This
cream was shipped first across the At
lantic to Bremerhayen. where it was re-
packed and placed in the cold rooms of
steamers for China and for Australia.
TO make these long voyages to the other
side of the world in avery way satisfac-
torily.
SO you see, that while it is true that
ice cream is a perishable commodity,
it can readily be shipped and we are
constantly shipping it to many points
and to great distances"
