The ice famine that bas prevailed in ?o
many cf the towns and cities ot tb:? State
during the past four or fire days has nor
aSTVcted Sumter eeriously although there has j
be^-n a slight shortage cf ice -t times during
the pass few davs The ice fer most o?' the
towns in the ev-ttrn ??ctic-n of the S*ate ,
supplied by ice fnctories in this city, which j
har? an output, when run at the full c-ii sci- I
ty, cf ?0 to ?25 tona a day. Ice dea ers in I
the e:*rly part of the season make contracts!
wi'ii me f-JCrories for a regular weeklv sup- ?
ply, and ?hey usually base their contracts on
the average demand, consequently when an
especially bot spell of weather occurs the de- j
maud f?r ice is much greater than the dealers j
have calculated on, and their supplies are not !
equal to tbe demand Trien they begin call- !
mfr on the ftctories to increase the shipments, j
but aa tne factories usually have contrats j
cal.iog for all the ice they can make ii is j
impossible to double up on the orders as tbe ?
dealers expect them to do. Just now the '
factories in this city h>ve to contend not only j
with a greatly increased demana but with !
crippled plants, and th" result has been an I
ice famine. Tb" uew plant cf the Sumter |
