ATTORNEY TO BUILD
PLANT FOR MAKING
SANITARY ICE CREAM

! Work is progressing finely on the
new ice cream factory on Sanger
avenue which is being built by A.
from his law practice. The struc-
ture will be two story building
2Ox40 feet in dimensions situated
near the Farmers Exchange on
Sanger avenue. being little beyond
and on the other side of the street.
1t will be of concrete and wood, the
| lower story Of concrete and the up
per of wood. 1t will be of bunga-
low type, the upper story being fin
ished with stained shingles. Mr..
, Sanborn hopes to have the factory
! in operation about the middle of
, June and his father, Fred Z. San
born will have the active manage
ment of the business.
The machinery, which will be on
the second floor, will be for the pur-
pose of mixing, standardizing and
pasteurizing the ice cream mix. The
supplies will all be received on the
second floor and the ingredients of
the mix, with the exception OF the
favoring will all be put in the pas
teurizing vat together and in this
way all possible danger of infection
of any kind will be obviated
After pasteurizing, the mixture
will be viscolized and Immediately
cooled by passing over a cooling coil
through which ice water is pumped.
The mix will then be stored for 4S
hours and then the freezing will be
done on the first floor. The ice
cream will be frozen in the latest
model perfection brine freezer,
which will freeze 60 gallons an hour
1t will then be stored on the same
floor where it will harden before de-
livering No ice cream, however,
will be kept on hand more than two
days.
On the first floor also, will be the
department for sterilizing the cans
steam turbine, which revolves at
great speed and they Will then be
placed over a steam jet and steril-
lied. This will overcome any posi-
bility of ptomaine poisoning.
Mr. Sanborn was engaged in the
manufacture of ice cream for seven
years in Island Falls, his former
home, and had very successful
business. When he came to Water
willie to practice law, he said that he
was at once struck with the posi-
bilities of an ice cream factory here.
He quoted statistics to show that
Waterville consumes an exceedingly
large amount of ice cream as COM
pared with other cities. He also
said it was to the benefit of the city
to have an ice cream factory here
and to the farmers outside who will
find constant market for their
cream all the year round and spoke
of the splendid central location of
the city as a shipping point.
Mr.. Sanborn is most optimistic as
to the business outlook. He prom
Uses to do a large shipping business
and feels that he can serve "A popula-
ton of 100000. His territory will
extend up the Somerset branch and
as far south as Gardiner with all the
intervening territory for his market.
His ice cream will be known as the
Purity" brand. He will start at
first with four hands and increase
his force as the business demands.
He says that he never saw a better
location for the business and that no
industry is of greater benefit to
city.

Boston Health Commissioner Wires for
Help in Handling immigration
Problems.

BOSTON. Feb. 1.-THE situation de-
vpIopcd by diversion to this port of
flood of immigrants from Europe and
danger of introducing typhus with their
admission was a subject of consideration
and conferences by health officials Of the
federal service. the city and the state
tcdav. Dr. William G.. Woodward, the
lnunicipaI health commissioner, after
visit to the quarantine station OF the
I-nited States public health service on
GalIupS Island. wired Assistant Surgeon
General Crcel a request that he come
here for Il conference regarding the dis
infection. and inspection of immigrants.
The health commissioner would not
discuss his observation of the facilities
and arrangement at the station. but ne
said he felt there was need for DIR. Creei
to come here at once and talk over what
the federal government should do and
what the city government can do to make
examination effective. There has been
no issue raised here as yet like that in
New York where federal and local au-
tboritips are in conflict. DIR. Woodward
said his attitude was one of full cooper
alton with the federal authorities. but
he added that he felt federal officials
should extend to those of the city the
courtesy of joint examination Of per
SONS to be admitted to its borders. State
and municipal statutes give the local
health department jurisdiction, he SAID,
hut there was no present intention to
press this authority until the matter had
been fully discussed.

ton Saturday by Attorney Arthur p.

ct for the Office of road commissioner,
but a separate paper is being circulated
for signatures. nominating the present
road commissioner, Charles j. DUDE. At
present the road commissioner is ap-
pointed by the seleetmen, but the town
meeting might vote TO elect road com
missioner. in which event it would be
convenient to have the candidates name
printed on the ballot. and it was for this
reason that petition was circulated in
behalf of Mr.. Dube after the other Pc
titions had been sent out.
There is q possibility that an effort
will be made to have the present legis-
lature amend the election law so as not
to have the Australian ballot necessary
except in towns or cities having 10000
or more population.
