| TEXT | It needs no other argument to prove the inestimable blessing that ice is to the communities of all nations than the immense trade done in it all over the world, especially in the hot days of summer, when it is an article of consumption as necessary as any other for human sustenance. The Greenwood Lake Ice Co., of which Messrs. Cooper & Hewitt are proprietors, established its offices and depots at the premises No. 37 to 43 Ailing Street four years ago, and has also branches in Jersey City and New York. It gives constant employment, in the business in Newark, to fifty hands and fifteen wagons, and during the ice season it generally has five hundred hands engaged in the cutting and sawing of the article. Over 50,000 tons of ice are cut and housed from Greenwood Lake in the winter and 20,000 tons of this are sold in Newark and its vicinity, all shipments being made direct from the Company's ice houses at Greenwood Lake, forty-six miles distant from Newark. The firm is composed of E. Cooper, late Mayor of the city of New York, and A. S. Hewitt, gentlemen of such high social standing that it would be out of place to make any further comment in this editorial. Mr. A. G. Hoffman, a gentleman of seventeen years' experience at the business, is the resident agent and manager for the firm in Newark. |
