The unusually mild winter weather which has prevailed until the last two or three weeks seriously threat- ened the harvesting of a successful ice crop. The sharp turn in weath- er conditions had the desired effect however. Theodore Betts, with his crew of men, has been busily engag- ed the past two weeks in cutting at Ice lake. The ice is now from 22 to 25 inches thick. The business in Grand Rapids is beginning to assume large proportions, few residents in this city realize that approximately 4,000 tons of ice will be required this year to supply the needs of Grand Rapids families and business insti- tutions.
