ures quoted above afford ample
ground for the belief that the time
will come when private enterprise
will awake to a realization of the
possibility of safe and secure prot
its from the manufacture and sale Oh
a large scale of artificial ice at a
price far below that now charged the
consumer for the natural product.
The conditions under which artificial
ice made is made in Washington 1r
Jacksonville cOnnOt vary much from
conditions in other cities, and it is
reasonable to assume that the cost OF
manufacture will not vary materially
in any part of the country.
If the United States government
finds it practical to manufacture ice
for its own use in the nations CAPT
tai, why may not municipalities also
embark in the business of making
ice? Ice is almost as much of ne
cessity as water, electricity or gas,
and If it is proper for a municipality
to furnish one or more of these, WIN
not all? Municipal plants have been
advocated in several cities, and, al
though, so far as we know, none has
been established as yet, it would not
be surprising if the postoffice de
partment'S success in making ice at
IS cents q ton should eventually lead
to the general establishment of mu-
nicipaI ice plants. In fact, we be-
Ileve that such will be the outcome
unless private enterprise steps ii
ahead in keeping with the actual cost
of prOduction.-SpTing (Mass.)

MAKES ICE At
So CENTS TON
IF UNCLE, SAM CAN MAKE IT FOR
THAT WHY SHOULD DEALERS
SELL 1T AT AN So RATE7

Ice consumers everywhere will be
interested in the news that the gov
eminent is contemplating the manu-
facture of ice for the use of the va
rious departments. A few figures
showing the saving to be accomplish
ed by this venture will also interest
the consumer. The postoffice de-
partment in Washington has a COM
plete ice-making plant and is turn
ing out more ice than it can use.
Secretary MacVeagh of the treasury
department heard ef~this and put in
a requisition for the surplus. This
department uses a ton Of ice every
twenty-four hours in the water cool
ers throughout the big building. l.
has been paying private dealers
$7.65 a ton. Under the new arrange
ment with the postoffice department
the ice costs 60 cents a ton. a saving
approximately of $4,000 a year. This
is at the rate of 80 pounds of ice for
1 cent, $50 pounds for cents, 300
pounds for a dime. or $50 pounds for
a quarter of a dollar.
If the postoffice department can
manufacture ice at a cost Of IS cents
q ton it stands to reason that private
concerns can do the same. A short
time ago We called attention to the
fact that the manufacturers of arti-
fetal ice in Jacksonville, Fla, were
retailing the product at Is cents per
100 pounds, and making 4 satisfactory
profit thereon. While the ordinary
consumer can never hope to be so
fortunate as the government depart
ments in obtaining cheap ice the fig

Deserving the home it has occupied
since organization some years ago,
the American National Bank will at

open to the public what is said to be
the most richly fitted and handsome
ly appointed banking quarters in the

plying the splendid suite facing the
two streets. The public Will be well
coined and shown through the hand

tinuing from 8 a. m. until p. m. The
regular business will be carried on
at the same time.

pert fnishers will probably haV Q
everything in ship-shape when the
banks hundreds of friends call On
a sight seeing tour and to offer con-
gratulationS to happy directors and
officers who will be prominent in the
building. The general public is ex-
tremely proud of the structure itself
and this qualification will be greatly
enhanced once the interior is exam
ined at close range.
Practically everything in the way of
fixtures will be brand new at the
new location. Records and needed
property, however, were moved over
yesterday and things are expected to
move smoothly and delightfully."- on the
