A canvass of the ice supply in cities and towns shows that Harris burg has been better supplied with ice than other sections. In Pitts burgh the'ice man inquires whether there is a baby in the house before making a delivery. At other places but a fraction of the consumption has been supplied. With few exceptions consumers in Harrisburg have been able to ' let their regular quantities. The supply in Harrisburg has been made equal to the demands by extraordinary efforts. The threatened ice famine has been averted by having ice shipped daily from the mountains 36 miles above Wilkes- Barre, Pa. Ice coming from such a long distance naturally increases the cost of doing business. The cost of this ice is as follows: Price at ice house, $3.00 per 2000 pounds, freight to Harrisburg $2.40 per 2000 pounds, waste from melting at 20 per cent amounts to $l.OB per 2000 pounds, making the cost on the tracks in this city, $6.48 per 2000 pounds. The expenses for doing business are mounting daily. It now costs • from $4.00 per 2000 pounds to $4.50 per 2000 pounds, to make house to house deliveries, and the end is not yet in sight. Labor is much the biggest item in the ice business; every person knows the advance along this line within the year. The labor situation is acute, it is a diffi cult matter to get sufficient help. A most important item is barn expense as follows: Horse feed, shoeing, veterinary, light, barn superintendent, stable men, cost of horses, wagons, blacksmith material, etc., etc., all these are costing more month by month. Taking into consideration the above increase in costs it is essen tial that we have a slightly larger revenue, otherwise we cannot effi ciently keep consumers supplied at this period when ice is necessary to preserve the food which costs so much. We ask our customers to consider carefully the position of the ice man with respect to other industries which are forced to continually make rapid increases in prices. It's costing us all more to do business today. The above increase in price has the approval of the Food Adminis trator. / United Ice & Coal Co. Forster and Cowden Sts.
