The simplest and only kind that I ever saw is composed oftwo pieces of wood, a piece of red cloth and your a piece about 1 inch by i and 15 inches long, if the holein the ice is 5 inches across, or make them in that propor-tion. Now, in the center cut a hole i of an inch or so; cutanother piece about 15 inches long and about 4 or 5 from oneend. This piece should be about $ of an inch square.
