SPLENDID ePENING.-The best opening
we know Of for an enterprising business
man. is to start q; brick yard in OF near
Dodgeyille. We don't see how man who
understands the business, and would at
tend to it as he should. could help getting
rich. In the first place there are great
many buildings being erected, and scores
more likely to be. Then, lumber is at the
least calculation Sc per M. higher here
than at almost any other point. Building
stone is also very scarce and hard to get.
Good clay for brick is abundant, wood can
be bought for S. per cord, and the demand
for brick would be ample. They are now
worth in this village $23 per thousand.
Therefore we can safely say that there is a
splendid chance for some enterprising bust
ness man to start brick yard.
