FIVE OF LAKELAND'S
PROMINENT PHYSICIANS NOW
Using FEDERAL ICE

We wish to inform the public that
Federal ice is made by the air sys-
TEN, which system is being used now
by large manufacturers of ice. The
water used is from deep wells and is
pumped direct from the well into the
freezing cans. No stand pipes or els
ters are used. Air is blown into the
water while it is freezing in order
that a clear crystal ice can be made.
Distilled water ice is made from the
steam exhaust from the engines 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 the surface
of a glass of water.
None of these tastes will be found
in Federal ice as it is as pure as the
water you drink daily.
The Federal Ice plant was built at
Lakeland at an enormous expense to
meet the needed requirements of this
section on fruits and vegetables which
are our main revenue crops, having
had second choice in the matter of
building.
This Federal plant is the largest ice
plant in the Southeast and a credit
to the city. 1t will employ a large
number of men, in fact more men
than has heretofore been employed
in Lakeland's ice industry.

Lake Wales

The new plant of the Townsend
Sash, Door & Lumber Co, at Lake
Wales, has recently been completed
and is now in operation.
1t is said to be one of the largest
and best equipped sash and door ana
millwork plants in Florida. There are
twenty different kinds of woodwork
ing machines in operation, and the
company manufactures most anything
that goes into a house, including sash
and doors, stairs and cabinet work.
turned work, scroll work, kitchen
and dining room furniture, screens,
mantels. etc. One striking feature of
the construction of the plant is that
all the drive shafting, pulleys and
betting, and most of the blow pipe
system is below the main working
floor and this obviates a lot of the
noise, vibration and dust common to
such plants. The gears and pulleys
of all the machines are equipped,
where possible to do so, with safety
devices, and every thought possible
has BEN directed to lessening the
danger Of the machinery to the man
working in the plant, and in addition
to this the company carries liability
insurance for the protection of its en-
ployes The mill building is of fac
tory type and is pleasant to look at,
and the interior is large and roomy
end has a world of light and plenty
Of ventilation afforded by about one
hundred glass windows. The build
ing is entirely enclosed and will be
warm in winter and cool in summer
and will be altogether a pleasant and
desirable place for men to work,
which is often times not the case with
plants of this kind The main work
ing floor contains between nine and
ten thousand feet of floor space This
does not include the lower story
where the shafting, betting, ETC., are
located neither does it include the
many platforms, lumber sheds, lum-
Der docks, etc.
A planning mill and dry kiln are
also operated in connection with the
business. This mill has large capa-
city, and manufacturers flooring.
ceiling. siding, ETC., and the company
Ialso remills considerable cypress
lumber
The machinery and building alone
cost approximately $40,0OOO0, and tbs
property on which the new plant is
located contains about seven acres of
land, which insures plenty of room
for growth.
In addition to this a large stock of
pine and cypress lumber, shingles.
lath, crushed rock, brick, etc, is car
ried in the sheds and on the yards
T'he warehouses contain a large stock
Of roofing, wall board, metal lath
nails, cement, plaster and many other
materials required in buildings.
Taking it all in all it will be hard
to find a more completely equipped
plant, or more complete stock of
building materials in the state.
The officers of the company are, j.
F. Townsend, president, c. L. John
son, vice president, F. e. Poser, sec
rotary and treasurer, and it is the in
tention of the company to ship their
products to all parts of south Florida

TINY STORE ROOM IS
BUILT In LOBBY OF
DEEN-BRYANT BLOCK

The owners of the Deen-Bryant
building are building a store room in
the lobby of the building on the Ken
lucky Avenue side, and the space
thus afforded will he occupied by the
confectionery business of II. @. Denny.
The construction work, which is be-
ing done by Adams and Benson, con-
sists of ceiling, side. shelving and
front. The front is made of three
doors, which lift aside, allowing the
showcase to be rolled forward.
The shelving on one side has
screened doors, while glass doors line
the opposite walls.
The space occupied is by II, and
this will be one of the smallest and
at the same time one of the most con-
venient store rooms in the city.

output of Federal ice, will give Lake
land a frs.-class delivery service
using our surplus trucks on after
noon deliveries on the main highways.
These rural routes have already been
iE use
We now have routes to Kathleen
and Galloway where our service has
enabled the berry growers to obtain
their ice much cheaper than when
they were forced to haul it from
Lakeland. We also have routes to
Haskell and return via Club House
and South Florida Avenue One as
far as Cristina. Other routes will be
established The local outskirts of
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
we can make "a cheaper permanent
price of ice of 35 cents to markets,
restaurants, hotels and other bust
ness concerns taking a 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 we
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 az
this price, prior to their reduction.
We ask the business men and citi-
zens to stop and think what they
were offered before it was known that
the Federal ice would build in Lake
land year ago.
Were you having the service you
are now getting? Were you offered
cheaper ice and excessive weights?
We. will be glad to show visitors
ever the plant as it is now open for
inspection curing the afternoons.
