T7ILL EKECT ICE PLANT
EAKLY NEXT YEAH
Supt. Phillips nnd Asst. Supt. Wall,
of tho Pacific Fruit Express Co., wore
in town yesterday making arrniiKo-
monts for tho ico Bupply nt this tor-!
ininal for tho 1920 season. This is
tho last winter that Ice will be cut
and stored at the North Platte plant.
Early next Bprlng tho company will
begin tho erection of a mammoth ar
tificial ice plant with a capacity to
meet tho full requirements of the
plant nt this point The capacity of the
houses in this city is practically fifty;
thousand tons, but this year the plant
capacity was insufficient to supply tho
increased demand, and hundreds of
cars of ice were shipped In from other,
points, tho greater part coming from'
St Louis.
Tho artificial plant which it is pro
posed to build will have a capacity to
not only meet the present day require
ments but to meet tho increased de
mand's of tho future, and probably
supply tho ice needs of points up and
down tho lino.
