The post office department says the formula uses carbonate and nitrate of ammonia and agriculture findings show Levy’s method works only in winter or at greatly reduced temperatures. The cost of the chemicals and market pricing raise questions about the method’s viability compared with ice wagon prices. A government order has been issued following these findings.
