ICE INDUSTRY HAS
ANOTHER RECORD YEAR

While most businesses are writ
ing reports for 1880 in red ink, the
ice industry continues to figure in
black, according to an executive of
the National Association of Ice In
dustrics.
"The ice industry has just COM
pleted another record year." this
executive states. ice companies re-
port an average gain of per cent
over 1929 tonnage. About 65,000,000
tons of ice were consumed in 1880
against 61,0O0,0OO tons in 1929. The
1880 output sold for over $450,000,-
900.
"A number of factors figured in
the progress of the ice industry IL
the face of stiff competition and
general business depression, among
them protracted hot weather, in
crease in the consumption of fresh
fruits and vegetables requiring ice
in transportation, education of the
public to the need of year-rOund re-
frigeratiOn, increased economy of
multitUdes in saving food, and i'm
proved merchandising and service of
ice companies.
winter ice consumers are stead
lily on the increase. In January, as
in July, ice is essential for safe and
economical food preservation.
Homemakers rapidly are realizing
that it is unsafe to do without ade-
quate refrigeration at any time
during the year.
winter and summer, ice is also
most convenient for preparing and
serving delicious, appetizing, dishes.
Ice through the year has an impOr-
tant place in the sickroom-in ice
packs allaying pain, quenching
thirst in cooling drinks. An electric
fan behind block of ice will cool
feverish brow; water bottle
filled with Clipped ice will cool
feverish bed Ice as an astringent
is a Well-known beauty aid employ
ed by the leading beauticians. Ice is
necessary for healthful and gracious
living and the outlook for 1881 ice
business is good"

ARE YOUR BROOD. SOWS IN
GOOD CONDITION!
By Prof. w. B. Krueck


The condition Of the brood sows
upon the average farm will decide
largely the number of pigs that will
be farrowed in the average litteI
next spring.
1t has been consistently demon
strated that brood SOW that is in
a thrifty, healyth condition at the
time of breeding will usually farrow
large number of pigs during the
following spring season.
By good condition, however, in
the case of a breeding animal, one
doesn't intimate just a fat hog. The
brood SOW that is smooth, carrying
a reasonable quantity of flesh, that
has been fed upon ration properly
balanced with a reasonable amount
of protein. is usually in the most
healthy condition and in the best
condition to oconceive for large lit
ter of pigs the following spring.
If brood sows have been carried
largely upon the waste feed in the
fields during the past few months,
the good hogman will certainly find
it desirable to add a reasonable
amount of protein to his ration dur
ing the next few weeks and he will
find that his sows will breed more
uniformly and will be in better con-
dition to produce large litter of
pigs.
Continuing the feeding Of this
protein during the CESSATION period
has also been demonstrated to be
extremely desirable and it has been
shown that practically twice as
many pigs are at the sides of brood
sows at weahing time as where no
good protein supplement is fed dur
ing the CESSATION period.
