It will be noticed that the ice is sur¬ 
rounded on all sides with sawdust except 
at the bottom. This permits the chill of 
the ice to pass through the floor and keep 
the temperature of the storage room cold. 
Naturally there is more waste of ice in 
such a building than in the typical ice¬ 
house, but the waste is only apparent and 
not real. It goes into chilling the storage 
room, and in this respect it is the most 
economical method of using the cold. 
There is only one entrance to the ice 
room for filling the chamber. In the cold 
storage space there is a door and a win¬ 
dow opposite. Two windows may be pro¬ 
vided if needed for sufficient light. Dou¬ 
ble windows should be made so that a 
space of dead air is kept between them. 
This will keep the chill in and retain a 
uniform temperature. Double doors 
should be provided at the entrance, with 
a narrow vestibule between. By closing 
one before the other is opened the in¬ 
side temperature will not be greatly af¬ 
fected by frequent entrances and exits. 
At the peak of the roof of the ice house 
there must be provided some method of 
ventilation, for the wet air of the inside 
must escape if the place is to be kept dry, 
clean and sweet. The ventilator must be 
regulated somewhat according to the 
weather. On very windy days it must 
be almost closed, and on quiet days opened 
the full distance. The important princi¬ 
ples of every ice house must be observed 
here. There must be ample protection 
from the outside heat, air and moisture. 
The inside of the cold storage room can 
be fitted up for the storage of almost any¬ 
thing of a perishable nature. There is 
ample room for racks and closets to keep 
all sorts of household articles through 
winter and summer. The chilling of the 
room is automatic and is retained at all 
seasons without any attention. The ice 
stowed above can be reached, as in the 
ordinary ice house, without disturbing the 
chill room. As piece after piece is re¬ 
moved for household purposes, the amount 
of chilling power from above will be very 
gradually reduced, but not enough to 
cause any perceptible rise in the tem¬ 
perature of the storage room. There will 
be less ice needed for household purposes 
on account of the advantages of the chill 
room, and consequently the supply ordi¬ 
narily exhausted in a season will last much 
longer. 
The advantages of such a cold storage 
and ice house combined in one building are 
quite apparent to any one. If one raises 
chickens and eggs for market, they can 
be stored in this room for long periods 
without losing any of their freshness. If 
one has a large dairy connected with the 
place, the cold storage room is invaluable, 
or if one is engaged in fruit raising the 
chill room will keep the fruit in fine con¬ 
dition until ready for shipment. Even for 
the ordinary household not engaged in 
any of these pursuits, the storage room is 
of the greatest advantage. In it one may 
keep meat indefinitely. A whole pig or a 
quarter of a steer can be kept there.
