Canadian grocer April-June 1918 . wn line of boxed ordinary times very little bulk candyis required apait from that manufactur-ed on the premises. The history of the candy departmentof the Lea store is one of continuousdevelopment. The chief elements re-sponsible for its Success have been the 93 close inter-relation of this and other dis-tinctive departments in the store, and thecompleteness of the display fixtures andfurnishings, coupled with an unlimitedlange of confectionery of every conceiv-able kind.

Look After Your Ice Supply ice May be Scarce During the Summer Months, and Possibility of Higher Prices—United States May Impose Embargo Against Ammonia That is Essential in Ice ICE is about as necessary a thing is about the grocery store inthe summertime, in fact it is an ab-solute necessity, and it behooves everygrocer to assure himself that he willhave an adequate supply during the hotseason. Many grocers do not pay muchattention to this matter, trusting to luckthat there will be no shortage and thatthey will be able to get their suppliesfrom time to time as they require. At the present time, however, thereare some conditions affecting this busi-ness that have not been thought of be-fore.

Am-monia is, of course, one of the essentialsin the manufacture of artificial ice, andartificial ice has become a factor of agood deal of importance during the pastfew years.
