Every MIlk Producer Should Have One -The Work and Cost of Erec- -tion Light Compared With the Benefits. (Contributed by Ontario Department of Agriculture, Toronto.) VERY Ontario farmer' who produces Milk, -and most of the farmers do, -should store a quantity of ice each winter in order to make it easier for him to cool the milk down after the evening milking, and to keep It sweet for such short periods, -week -ends for example, --.as lie°may be required 'to keep it before delivering it at the cheese factory or other point of dis- posal. In order to preserve the ice satisfactorily some forth of .ice -house or shelter is necessary. The purpose of this article is to describe in a few words a type of ice -house which will give good satisfaction. The ice -house does not neeessarily have to be expensive, but certain con- ditions in regard to it must obtain if the ice is to keep well. These I shall emphasie . first and they are,- protection re;protection of ice from sun's rays, this is the wall, good :drainage from the bottom; of the hoifset either natural or artfietal ,free 'e'ircitlatian of air :through- the 'top,,air ,tight*foundation, plenty of good quality of dry sawdust on all sides at the Tnass of ice, and close packing* of the foe. If these conditions ca be secured in a rough bin built uner a shed, or a lean-to on the shady side of a building, all well and good unless one has other good reasons for building a more ex- pensive structure elsewhere. The matter of convenience is often a de- ciding factor in this case, and the type of ice -house I am about to de- scribe is a good illustration of this fact. Only once have I seen it in use, but there is no reason why it could not be used quite generally. This particular type consists of a lean-to structure of wood at one end of the barn which has the stable underneath. The size would vary with the amount of ice required, ,but probably a building 15 feet squire and 12 feet high would be large enough for most farmers' needs. In this structure and at the side adja- cent to the barn, or rather the base- ment wall, is built a concrete enclo- sure about 6 feet square and 6 or 6 feet high. A door in the basement wall admits one to it. In the side opposite to the doorway there is a row of 3 or 4 -inch tile near the bot- tom for letting in the cold air from the ice which is packed closely to the concrete storage on all three sides and over the top as well. Between the top of the storage and the barn there is a narrow passage -way or flue for allowing the foul or used air to. get out, hence good circulation in the storage is provided for. In this par- ticular case the farmer has his milk - room containing cream separator, etc., adjoining this storage and when: ever he wishes to cool milk or cream or store it he puts it in this storage. Other articles, such as butter and meat, are also stored at times but of eourse only for a few days at a time. Hence much, handl- ing" of ice is saved as well as con- siderable,time. The building is made of wood, the studding being boarded on both sides. It would be advisable to fill the space between the two boardipgs with planer shavings or good quality sawdust. The roof is covered with shingles. The gables are left somewhat open, for ventila- tion. Plenty of sawdust is used around the ice next to the walls, and also a good depth over the top, none however is used between the cakes of ice. If a few cakes of ice are re- quired for household use they may be easily taken out of the sawdust in the top ofice-house or itoneside if more convenient. It11 wen be seen the refore that this type of ice -house does double duty in a degree, namely, •providing a small ioe-cold storage room, cooled by the ice mass directly, in addition to hous- ing ice for various incidental uses in the summer -time. In a ease of this kind there would not be much need for taking out: ice' ekeept for supply- ng the household refrig�erator'as ;the tor,ge-room would"take care of the ordiniry -coo,lir g' and preserving of ni•odtcts.' Believing this arrangement to be valhable, and :in many cases practic- able on 'Ontario` farms, 1 have much pleasure in recommending it to farm- -; g -•..' ' Ft. Graham, O. A. roilege,y Guelph.
