Ice, Preservation and Cutting Of

Ice may be preserved by burying it in sawdust, or wrapping it first in paper, then in flannel, and keeping it in a tub with flannel thrown over. The paper and flannel must be changed when wet. Ice may be divided into small pieces by placing a needle point downwards on the ice, and striking the head of it with a small hammer.
