Glacial Ice Comma.

A Norseman who has been reading

Atlantic coast of the United States Is
preparing to carve up one of the gla-
ciers that are 10 be found at the river
heads OF Norway and bring this frozen
commodity to the American market.
There is no apparent reason why Nor
way glacial ice should not be sold at
profit in those cities where the re-
tail price of ice has been advanced
to a figure far beyond that which pre-
vailed last year
Of the coast of Newfoundland, less
than 1000 miles to the northward Of
New York city, are floating iceberg
enough to supply the needs of 100000
900 of people through the hottest of
summers The average man why buys
his ice in small blocks has doubtless
often wondered why these huge bergs
should not be blown up with dyna-
mite and towed down the coast In
sections for summer consumption In
the large coastal cities OF the United
States. The Norseman is proposing
to do something like this, only he will
saw his bergs into small blocks and
load them on ships. Thus the trans
portation will be more rapid and loss
from melting less.
