FOE ICE

A prora-nent cold storage ‘expert, in disruawng the subject of refrigeration in the home, says

lirralded as sealing the doom of the ice man, has simply forced better practices by ice companies, and stimulated the industry to adopt progressive methods. He painted out that when the electric light waa developed, prophets said the day of gas was ended, but from that day to this, not only the use of gas but of electricity has increased tremendously. The same thing took place with electric car* and automobiles. In spite of 20,000,000 autos and motor busaes in the country, the electric railways are hauling more people than ever

before.

And ao it will be with electric refrigrration. It will stimulate 'he use of ice, and there is no ground for assuming that it will destroy the well managed ( and progressive ice plant. As a matter of fact, such plants are going under a chain system management
