For the first time since its erection in 1799 the White House has its own refrigeration system. Electric refrigeration, with its copper finned cooling coils and compressors was installed in the presidential ice box during the recent remodeling operations. Ice was used by Washnton, Adams, Jefferson and other early occupants of the White House was cut 1 ?h? Pninmac river and stored 11KJM.A 4 IUC . -- _ in deep trenches, which were scattered all over the city. The first White House?burned by the Uritish in 1812?had an ice house built in it, a deep cellar 20 feet deep in diameter and 15 feet deep with stairs leading down into .it. The first White House ice boxes were very crude affairs, being constructed of rough lumber, caulked together with no insulation. This system of refrigoration prevailed until near the end of Lincoln's first administration when an improved ice j box das installed. It had two comI partinents and was insulated will? granulated cork and charcoal, j Shortly before and after the Civil War, Washingtons ice supply was | furnished by a privately owned comI pany which harvested ice from the j deep, swift flowing Kennebec river, 'in Maine. This ice was exceptionally clear and claen. It was brought j to Woshingjoii in schooners and I stored in a great warehouse, near j the site of the ?preqent municipal pier.

Horte Feed Hints _ e I Oats ore one of the best grains | for horses. Compared with corn, , oats have more protein and less carbohydrates. They may be fed either wholo or ground. For very young animals ihey should be rolled or ground. In thP case of horses that eat too ropidly, It Is advisable to place a littlo chopped clover hay or some whole corncobs In the feed box with the oats to prevent the danger of choking. Where corn Is used Instead of oats It is a good P'at to provide leguminous hay for the animals, since corn is somewhat 1 >w in protein. Alfalfa and corn are receiving much favor when fed together to horses. In; th(> absence of legumes a little linseed meal or other protein concentrate may be included in the raj tlon. Any changes in the horse [diet should be made gradually. ** *? * ? ? ? ?
