What little ice formed on the Ash- land reservoir Tuesday night was pret- ty well melted out Thursday. - men here are beginning to think/the outlook dubious. One very favorable condition that existed six years ago, when several thousand tons was har- vested in the latter part of February, does not exist today, which is, that when the few days of cold camé then there was a three inch start of ice on the ponds and the water was cold; now there is none. Most of the farmers around about the borough have icehouses, which they fill each year, some from natural nds and some from pomds artificial- y flowed by damming a small brook. Some of the farmers say they will cut six inch ice if they can get it. Shea Braos. fing it impracticable to cut much under eight inches. / 5 A. F. Read of Lisbon is not worry- ing yet; he mever fails to get ice off his old mill pond at the foot of the hill west of his home. This mill pond is shut in on all sides by high ground except on the northeast. Cn several occasions he has cut twelve-inch ice when the Dorrville fields showed but six. It is a matter of record that, in the sumnfer of 1902 following the winter when February was so cold, at the upper end of this old pond there was iceé that would support a man on_the 15th day of Junme. This is explained in_the existence of the high hills and overhanging foliage that meets over- head, so that no sun ever touches the surface. An encouraging item appeared in the Bulletin of Feb. 25th, 1910. It reads: “The ice in the ponds hereabouts, in- cluding Ashland, Packerville, Pachaus, Billings and Aspinook, has reached a thickness that is nothing short of re- markable. Fishermen on the upper Aspinook Saturday were obliged to out through twenty-two inches of solid ice to set their tilts, On the Ashland pond where ice was cut early in the winter to fill the big Dorrville houses owned by Shea Bros. the ice is now 17 inches thick. “On Billings' there is two feet. Farmers say that this small pond is flowed for the purpose of filling small houses are frozen solid.” Snow Melted. The second snow storm of the sea- son started in late Wednesday after- noon with a fine damp fall, that later of enormous size. after midnight. This kept up untll Thursday morning showed six Inches, with everything coated. The trees, with their base branches, made many times their size ‘with the damp white covering were a sight that evervone admired. After & warm day Thursday not much re- mained at night.
