USING FEDERAL ICE

LSlNG FEDEkAL lCk
! We wish to inform the public that
Federal ice is made by the air sys-
7 TEN which system iG' being,UsGd now
i by large manufac urers OF ice. ThI
water used is from cp wells and is
pumped direct from the well into the
freezing cans. No stand pipes or els
tiers are used. Air is blown into the
water while it is freezing in order
that clsar crystal ice can be made
Distilled water ice is made from the
steam exhaust from the -eHgines and
pumps which when condensed con-
tain all the lubricating oils. This oil
is separated from the distilled water
to the, best advantage by traps. This
Gil can often be tasted in distilled
water ice or detected on tho surface
on n glass of water.
None of these tastes will be found
in Fedora ic2 as it is as pure as the
water you drink daily.
The Federal Ice plant was built at
Lakeland at an enormous expense to
moet the needed requir, ments of this
section on fruits and vegetables which
are our main revenue crops, having
had second choice in the matter Of
building
iThc Federal plant is the largest ice
PLANT in the Southeast and a credit
to the city. It will employ a large
number OF men, in fact more men
than has heretofore been employed
in Lakeland's ice industry.

pany which is distributing the local
output Of Federal ice, will give Lake

nOol deliveries on the main highways.

Lakeland will lie fully protected. At
present we are only endeavoring to
call on our rapidly growing list of
customers. Our policy will be to take
care of the small trade, as well as the
largest, making accommodating SER
vice to those desiring ice. 1t is pos
sible with full trade of Lakeland that
wo can make cheaper permanent
pric3 of ice of 35 cents to markets,
restaurants. hotels and other bust
ness concerns taking daily average
OF 100 pounds.
To date We have sold no ice in
Lakeland at this price. Our competi-
tors knowing of our permanent offer
tc the business men in the event VIC
won in our fight for the ice trade have
reduced to 35 cents. Effective today
we have instructed our drivers to
meet any competitive prices, but we
wish it known that no ice was sold at
this price, prior TO their reduction.
We ask the business men and CHI
zens to stop and think what they
were offered before 1t was known that
