Strange as it may seem, Iceland has run short of ice, and urgent requests for immediate shipments of that commodity have been sent to Norway. Herring fishing, Iceland's principal industry, is in grave danger, as ice is required for packing the fish, which are exported in large quantities. This ice shortage has been caused by an extraordinarily mild winter. On the north coast of the island there is Ice without limit, but there is no means of transporting it to the districts where It Is required. Hence the urgent appeals for shipments of ice from other parts in order to save the herring industry. Crabapples.
