ENOUGH ICE IN
CITY TO AVOID
RATION CARDS
Famine Here Unlikely Unless
Continued Hot Weather
Exhausts Supply

According to Frederick Dewalt, of
the United Ice and Coal Company, Har-
risburg will not be reduced to the ex-
tremities Philadelphia is being forced to
in regard to the ice question.
In Philadelphia there has been a
meeting of city ice dealers and manu-
facturers and it has been decided to
limit each family to a certain number
of pounds. probably so. a day; an
equitable system of city-wide distri-
button is being instituted. Unless Har-
risburg suffers an unusual number of
hot spells such as the one last week,
there will be no danger of he supply
becoming exhausted and such drastic
measures being AIKEN. The average
consumption of ice per individual is es-
timated at 1000 pounds a year. Seventy
per cent. of this amount is used in 100
days during the hot season. 1t is said
that people are buying too much ice
and using it carelessly.
On account of the very small har-
vest of natural ice, which constitutes
ordinarily two-thirds of the entire sup
ply, the present amount is exceedingly
small. In this city, however, unless I'M
usual conditions result, there will be
enough to comfortably supply the COM
munity. Mr.. DeWalt said this morning
that he was in touch with several points
in New York State, where 1t might be
possible to get some ice in case of a
famine. Along the Hudson, however.
where a great proportion of the ice is
cut, there was practically a zero har-
vest last winter and this leaves New
York State in a much worse shape than
Pennsylvania.
Everything which can be done is be-
ing done by Mr.. DeWalt and he prom
Uses that the poor will not suffer from
lack of ice. Everyone is cautioned,
however, to go easy on the supply and
not use 1t up carelessly.

That's what they say now, but we

ers will see to it that the people shall
always pay at least "cost of duplica-

no less than it will cost IL years from

in population the value of the prop
erty will at least be proportionally in

just that much more.
We have before US the annual re-

at about $10,000,000. Judge Cant held
it to be worth about $3,50O,000 not
