Measurements on the Shea Brothers’ ice flelds at Dorrville Tuesday after- noon showed a thickness of eight inch- es of Al clear jce. Men were at work Tuesday clearing off the snow with big scrapers. e snow is deep and frozen solid and the scraping process | 18 hard, slow work. Mr. Shea pro- poses to take no risk, and cutting will begin as soon the flelds are clear. Last year cutting began the first week in February with 12-inch ice. Weath- er conditions made a succession of hold-ups necessary, with the result ;hl: the closing tiers were not of the est, There was some thought of dealing with the heavy snow by resorting to the calking process which is often done on large flelds, especlally where continued cold can be counted on. This process is that of driving holes through the ice at the angles of ten foot squares. The weight of the tons of spow forces the water up, with the result that the snow is saturated. A later freezing makes a solid ice much better than the so-called snow fce, which _often appears on top. The Shea Brothers have accommodation for housing thirty-eight hundred tons. Misses Mabel and Irene Young leave today (Wednesday) for a week's visit in New Yorlk. HIGHEST STANDING Given in Connection With Perfect At- tendance Record for Term.
