homes against a serious ice shortage, i
Computation shows necessity for a
minimum 60 per cent restriction, but
the administration is of the opinion
that a strict and uniform conserva
tion by all consumers under merely a
26 per cent restriction can be made
to meet the actual demands.
“8. In all homes the housekeeper
is particularly urged to guard re
frigerator practices and see that the
doors and ice comparbiient are kept
tightly closed; to refrigerate the
drinking water rather than using
cracked ice and to eliminate in par
ties. an entertainments those refresh
ments which .are heavy consumers of
ice; to purchase ice cream from a
manufacturer rather than freezing at
home. |
The foregoing is in the Interest of j
homec onservation, refrigerated water
i and beverages, for home use, answer
; every requirement, and the freezing
i of ice creams in bulk by large mak-
• era requires, comparatively for less
I ipe than for individual freezing, and
i in large centers is an entire saving
• since the freezing is by refrigerating
plants of the manufacturer.
“Finally, the administration again
' urges the canning'or preserving of
peaches as liberally as possible to
i prevent loss of any part of the crop
i which may not or can not be shipped.
"Publication of all of the foregoing

i tors, and all parties concerned as of-
ficial. i
When one man makes public his
achievements it usually results in
some other man exploiting his, espec
ially if they compare favorably with
those of the other fellow. An aver
age yield of thirty-one bushels of
wheat to the acre isn’t anything to
bo ashamed of and Mr. G. S. Haslam
of Pinehurst, testifies that his yield
per acre averaged 81 bushels and
those who saw his crop before was
harvested are inclined to accept'with-
out question his statement Mr. Has
lam therefore claims the championship
in I>ooly"for the largest average^
yield. Some other planter may yet
be heard from who has outstripped
him. If there is such an one it is now
time for him to come forward.
Atlanta, Ga.—The enforcement of
the ice conservation order issued Fri
day night by Dr. Andrew M. Soule,
federal food administrator, publica
tion of which, Dr. Soule says, is to be
accepted as official by county admin
istrators and all parties concerned—
has not yet gone far enough to meet
the actual demand in handling the
peach crop movement and meeting
essential domestic ice consumption.
The order was construed by Dr.
Soule as follows:
“1. The use of cracked, crushed
or shaved ice is prohibited in service
of individual soft drinks or beverages
over the countr or at table by soda
founts, soft drink dealers, clubs, ho
tels and public eating places.
“This is intended to apply and pro
hibit theu se of ice in individual
glasses o'f beverages or soft drinks
as has commonly been the custom at
fountains in the counter or table
service and at resorts in similar serv
ice; to the use of cracked or crushed
ice in individual glasses at table in
the service of table waters and bev
erages seryed in hotels clubs and pub
lic places. Its purpose is to eliminate
the unnecessary use of additional ice
' in all cases where refrigeration In
quantity is equally serviceable. It is
not to beconstrned as prohibiting the
service of ice water to guests in their
rooms in hotels and clubs by pitcher
or other container service, in which
cracked ice is used. However, nu
merous hotels have adopted guest
room thermos bottles for lee water,
which vastly reduces the room serv
ice of ice, and this is particularly en
couraged by the administration.
. “2. All dealers in and manufac
turers of ice aro prohibited from de
livering, by daily delivery or other
wise any juantity of ice greater than
76 per cent of the daily average
