TO REBUILD BIG ICEHOUSE

Armour & Co. Begin Excavating For New Plant of Larger Capacity in Washoe.

L. C. Mason, representing the building department of Armour & Co., whose large 
icehouse in Washoe was burned down last spring, was in Payette several days of 
last week and the first of this week looking after the work of having a new 
icehouse constructed.

Mr. Mason states that it is the intention of the company to construct a 
building 50x90, which will be larger than the one burned.  The work of breaking 
the ground has already commenced.  There will be from 10 to 50 men employed 
until the structure is finished, which will be the middle of November.  The new 
structure will be equipped with all modern machinery for handling ice.  It will 
not be erected on the old site but will be located about 400 feet east of the 
pond, thus obviating the danger of fire from passing trains.  A Y will be build 
out to the icehouse form the mainline upon which a train can be turned around 
if necessary.
