GOODNESS OF ICE,
1t Depends Upon the Temperature Of
the Surrounding Air.

HiS SN"s
Is ice colder in winter than it is
in summer? Many persons suppose
not. To the unthinking ice is ice
and cannot be any colder or warmer.
Try it and see. Take a Their
mometer and bury it in a large cake
of ice in summer OF in a house
where summer temperature obtains.
1t will indicate 80 degrees. This is
not under all circumstances the
freezing point of water.
Under normal conditions when
the temperature of the air is hover
ing about 80 degrees for several
hours the formation of ice may be-
gin at that exact degree on the
thermometer. On the other hand,
a bucket Of water exposed during
the oncoming of a cold wave may
not show a thin film of ice for some
times an hour or mor after the
mercury has passed below the 80
degree mark.
But 80 degrees is the temperature
of melting ice. If a piece Of ice be
thrown into boiling water and left
there until it is almost gone, the
small particle extracted will still be
at 80 degrees. Ice can never be
got above that temperature.
Mixing salt with ice makes it
much colder. This is illustrated in
the making of ice cream. The ice
in the freezer goes down to near
zero.
But while ice never can be warm
ed above 80 degrees it will become
chilled as much below that point as
the surrounding atmosphere does.
Ice will cool down like anything
else on a cold night to zero or be-
low. What should prevent it? On
a day when it is just freezing tenn
perature a block of iron and a cake
of ice in the open air will stand at
80 degrees. If the weather becomes
warmer the iron will warm up with
the weather, but the temperature
of the ice will remain at 80, al
though in the bulk it may diminish
appreciably in the melting process.
But with a falling temperature the
iron and the ice will become colder,
too, and the one just as much as
the other.
As the ice grows colder it be-
comes harder and more brittle.
This fact is observed by skaters on
the ice on a clear night when the
thermometer stands at 10 degrees
above zero or lower. They realize
there is something out of gear
when they cannot with east and
grace describe the figure 8 or the
'hickory bend" as it is called in the
country. The ice has become too
brittle and chips.
Those who have been in the arc
tic regions tell us that water thrown
on the ice there will SILVER it like
pouring boiling water upon cold
glass, the ice being SO much colder
there than the water.-New York
Press,
