KEEPING FOOD WITHOUT ICE.

But the mellow fellow who fills the bill
Is the man with the daily ice.''
When the rare accident happens that
the ice man misses his usual call the
housekeeper is nearly at the end OF her

on ice for cooling and keeping food that
there seems to be no alternative. DO

grandmother had a cool spring or a
deep we'll into which she lowered the
butter or milk and her dark cellar had
almost the temperature Of a cold stor-
age room. There Is no cellar to the
modern apartment which corresponds to
the old time house cellar and even In
the Diet ched house no use is now made
OF the space under the house except for
furnace and fuel and for laundry

Green vegetables must be sprinkled often

Fewer Teams Than Expected.
While there were hardly as many teams
in line as were expected it was probably
due to the threatening condition OF the
weather Three successive times the
events had to be postponed because OF
that factor, and yesterday it looked just
as unauspic:ous at times as 1t id once
| before when many of the teams had
gathered before they received notice the
affair was off for the time being. And
| then several postponements will mar al
most anything far as attendance is
concerned. Some of the interest with
which the movement was started was
| naturally lost for that reason.

more clubs expected to take part n the
