A farmer describes a simple ice house from rough boards sixteen feet square with a front opening. By using a foot of ground sawdust, stacking ice toward the center, and covering with pine sawdust a foot thick, he reports the ice staying firm until winter. He details tearing out a wall, shoveling sawdust, and keeping the space open to sunlight to dry and shine. Cor. 5 Farmers Club.
