Early In the development Of science
ice occupied the attention and engaged
the researches OF famous scientists.
Calico In 1907 discovered that Ice was
lighter than water, but It does not APP
pear that he made any particular prog
ress beyond this fact
Regulation was observed BY Fara-
day In 1850, and the investigation car
ried on by ]. d. Forbes, by Tyndall
and by Thomson led to the knowledge
that commercialization of ice produc-
ton might be turned into a great In
dustry.
Americans came to the fore immedi-
ate1y after. Boston expectation trade
was begun by Tudor In 1905. and in
1857 Harrison perfected the machine
whereby the use of ether and salt wa
ter made possible the mass production
Of artificial ice.
