The continued mild weather is com-
mencing to cause some anxiety among
those who lay up a supply of ice for
summer use. There is scarcely any
ice. yet formed an the river from
where the supply is usually taken.
It will take at least three weeks of
real cold wjealther for the ice to be-
come thick .enough for !practical pur-
poses. It has been stated that 55
years ago there was a winker similar
to this in every way to the present
season, and that year the spring was
unusually backward.
