The lodgo was built more than fio yenrs ago. and for many years was known far nnd wide as a roport and health center. When first established, It was known an Tollman Springs, deriv ing the name from Judge Toll man who purchased the land upon which the mineral springs nto lo cated, frmn the government.

The waters are mostly soda In varying degrees, and arc deemed of high medicinal value. Tho lodge Is located on tho bank of Kmigrant creek in a largest of Its kind In tho country. The discovery of the dry lee i obviously the cause for the sud-: den Interest. At present, most of the Ice is manufactured from dioxide gas, derived from the burning of llmo and coke in factories. Produc tion of the product Ih largely de pendent upon tho output of theso plants for as yet no gas springs havo been developed. Uses of tho dry Ice arc many. Chief among these, of course, is that of refrlKerallon. Dry lee looks like ordlnnry water Ice, but has a temperature of 110 degree below zero, nnd has the great ad vantage over ordinary Ice, In that a much smaller (inutility Is needed and therefore requires less spnen; that It evaporates without leaving nny moisture, and can be put di rectly in contact with any food stuffs.
