Bantam Lake's ice capacity is over 1,000,000 tons. At close estimate it contains 1,309 acres, harvesting 1,000 tons to an acre. The ice company expects to cut over about seventy-five acres. This industry gives employment to men who own teams, the average pay for a man and a two-horse team being about $5 a day, Each cake of ice must be cut on the surface of the lake, 32x22. Markers are laid on the ice at right angles, forming a square.

Ice is shipped to New Haven, Hartford, Bridgeport, Waterbury, Naugatuck and the majority of the larger Connecticut cities and to New York, and all intermediate points.
