move It Unavailing.'
The first ice that has been manu
factured at the new plant of the Co
lumbia Ice and Cold Sortage Co. was
taken from the containers Thursday.
It takes several days - to - make
the ice, and the plant has been run
ning since Monday, so the first could
only be gotten Thursday.Although ice
is at present being manufactured, the
cold storage plant will not be- In op
eration for some time. A large force
of carpenters is being employed rush
ing the operations as rapidly as pos
sible, and within - the next week or
two this branch of the large plant will
be running at full blast. There has
always been in Columbia a great de
mand for a place of this kind, and
the small one heretofore run at the
old plant has proved inadequate for
the large amount of business that
has come to it
A large quantity of ice will be
made from this time on, and if. the
present hot spell continues, it Is ex
pected that both plants will be run
to their full capacity in order to make
more bearable the torturing heat. The
increase in the ice supply will be wel
come to many of the large consum
ers in the city.
The shaf.that had been sunk 15
the effort to locate an adequate sup
ply of water was abandoned Wednes
day afternoon. The drill that was
used to bore the hole broke off at a
depth of over four hundred feet, and
several days of trying to get It out
were of no avail. A new shaft was
commenced Wednesday afternoon at
a spot distant only about three feet
from the former one. The old shaft
was sunk nearly the whole distance
through solid rock, only sixteen feet
being in softer material. Until water
in sufficient quantities is obtained
from the new "well city water will be
used. As it is necessary to distill
the aqueous solution before ice can
be made, this win be no disadvan
tage to the clarity and pureness of
the Ice.

PLANT INSTALLED
FOR AUTO TIRES
FRY BROS. SECURE SERVICES OF
EXPERT AND Witt VULCAN
IZE CASINGS.
Fry Bros, have completed the in
stallation of a moderi steam vulcan
izing plan at their garage on Gar
den street This is the first thing of
the kind that has ever operated In
Maury county, and will prove a boon
to the motorists here. It is claimed
by these progressive dealers that mo
torists can save one-half of their tire
expenses if they will have their cas
ings and tubes properly vulcanized.
Fry Bros, are now equipped so they
can handle this line of business with
the greatest hpeed and satisfaction.
The plant is a splendid one and will
be presided over by an expert that
they have secured at large expense.
He was formerly employed by one of
the largest tire concerns in the South,
and has had many years of experience
in this line.
Fry Bros, are now equiped to do all
kinds of tire repair, and instead of
sending casings to Nashville to be
vulcanized, they will be repaired at
this place. By this method the own
ers of the cars will not be knoceked
out of the use of their tires for any
appreciable length of time. Any job
can be turned out in five or sis bom.
It Is claimed that twice the mileage
can be gotten if the tires are regular
ly, vulcanized whenever trouble be
gins.
By the enterprise of these dealers
the people of the surrounding coun
ties will not have to depend upon a
foreign concern for taking care of
their tires, and Fry Bros, expect to do
a large business in this line.
