Householder the Hardest Hit with
Jump of 80 Cents Ton on
Half-ton Books.

Although this announcement was
made today. it can in no sense of
the word be considered an April
fool joke.
Yep Ice is going up again. AS
a matter OF fact the price of this
precious crystal has already ad-
yanced-with scant notice. Deliv-
cries made this morning called for
the following figures:
To the small consumer, S11 per
ton, cash.
To the butcher, Sc per ton, cash.
To the saloon, IS per ton, cash.
other special prices too numer-
Gus to quote are made to confec-
toners and other large consumers.
The little fellow, the householder
or small consumer must now dole
ont SlI in cash for one ton OF ice.
Thousand pound books, the kind
usually sold 10 the small consumer,
will set them back Just $3.50. This
figure Is just 50 cents more a thous-
and pounds than was paid last year
These books. purchased on the time
or instalIment plan, will cost the
small consumer Sc thousand
mounds as against $3.50 last year.
To the butcher the price of the
commodity has advanced just 81
ner ton. Last year the butchers
maid IS a ton and now they are pay
ing IS. To the saloon keepers the
price advanced from s. to IS ton.
High cost of ammonia and other
essentials TO the business, includ-
ing increased cost of labor and
equipment and upkeep of same, is
given by the ice dealers as a just
cause for advancing the price. In
1917 the price of ice was advanced
twice This advance was agreed
mon bv both the artificial and nat
ural ice dealers.
Ammonia Supply Short.
II has been repeatedly stated that
serious shortage of ammonia will
greatly handicap the manufacturers

tire of munitions and explosives
and is in great demand by the gov

local dealer stated to- ay that the

for the coming seasOn-that IS,
sufficient supply if nothing goe
