Whether we like il or not we
have to admit that the telephone
has become great factor in mer-

people to buy from catalogues
instead Of from stores.

ICE HOUSE SHOULD
GET ATTENTION NOW
Montana Experiment Station Bulletin
Teils How Summer Supply 10
Gathered In Winter

Farmers of Montana soon viii begir
to think of winter tasks, and among
these tasks will be the storage Of Ice
for summer use. According 10 III. K
Murdoch OF the Montana Experiment
station, Ice for the family use can be
stored In most localities without heavy
expense or much difficulty.
Ice can be cut from some water
reservoir, lake or river, or 1t may be
manufactured" at the home. On most
of the farms Of the state ice Is cut
from lakes, creeks or rivers and stored
In mill shavings, sawdust, chaff or
straw. But where natural Ice Is not
handy, another process may serve.
Water for Ice may be frozen In
heavy galvanized iron can These
cans should be we'll reinforced around
the top, be smooth on the inner sur
fnce and flare outward toward the
top to permit easy removal Of the ice.
When weather conditions are favor
able for making Ice, fiji the cans with
fresh water and allow II TO freeze
10 II tniCkHcSs OF W fncne6
on top. Then turn the can of Ice and
water over. loosen the ice by pouring
a quart or two of hot water over the
can. then remove the ice from the can.
There will be a she'll of ice the shape
of the can all around the water. The
face of this shell may be broken and
all but a few quarts OF water re-
moved. When this remaining water
has frozen add more and, as fast "a
IL ~freezes, sdd more water until the
she'll IL completely filled with Ice.
Ice obtained In this manner will be
