The Crops In the Northwest.

ST.. PAUL, MINI, Aug. %.
Harvest began all along the Northern
Pacific to-day. In the entire valley the
week has been characterized chiefly by the
increase of quality of the wheat fields,
which were expected not to go over No. l.
Under the favorable condition of the past
week the fields are now confidently ex
pected to give up bounteous yield of No.
] hard. George Barnes, President of the
Northern Pacific Elevator Company, speaks
very highly of the crop being harvested.
He says that in his long and varied ex-
perience in wheat matters he has never
seen such a wonderful outcome. Six weeks
ago there was apparently complete
failure. The stalk is rather short, but the
heads are long and the grain plump and
large. Indeed, so large and heavy are the
grains that some fear has been expressed
that careless handling would cause some
Smelling, but by commencing early and cut
ting it before it is over-ripe it is hoped to
avoid this contingency. There can be no
question that the crop will be large. The
few fields that have already been
cut fully bear out the assertion that the
Red River Valley output of wheat will 6e
O great one. On the Dalrymple farm har-
vest commenced to-day with $50 self-bind-
ers in q row. The oat crop in Cass will
also be large one and the result big. The
average wheat crop for the immediate Red
River Valley can be set down at twenty
five bushels, and beyond distance of
thirty miles from the river it may fall
little below it. In Trail, Walsh, Grand
F,1 k and Pembina Counties the harvest will
commence tomorrow and next day, and
the present fine weather may be taken as a
guarantee that the crop will be secured in
good condition. On the Minnesota the har-
vest was begun in several places and the
yield was good. Five large elevators are
being erected along the line of the More
head Northern for the reception of the fall
crop. With another week of fair weather,
and everything points to that now, the
crop of North Dakota will be cut and in
shock, aRd the best ever harvested in this
region.

Expensive Brick and Mortar.

The fronts of many of the massive
buildings now in course of construc-
ton. and those about to be commenced
in this city, are formed of pressed
brick. This kind of brick is very ex-
pensive, more so than is generally sup
posed by persons who have never had
occasion to purchase.
Pressed bricks are not made in this
vicinity to very great extent. and the
finer qualities are brought here from
other places, principally from the East
A brick manufactured at Chicago is
one of the most expensive grades made
The building now in course of erection
at Superior and Bank Streets is being
faced with this sort. The price paid in
Chicago is $40 per thousand. The
freight rate to this city is 80 per thou
sand. making the brick cost $50 per
thousand, or five cents each. These
bricks are made perfect as to color and
size. There is no variation whatever
in either respect. The edges and
corners are sharp, and in each brick
are eight round holes. about half an
inch deep On either side, in which the
mortar is placed. They are shipped
with the utmost care, being packed in
hay They are handled almost a.
cautiously as crockery to avoid chip
ping the corners and edges. This
would spoil the brick for use, as il
would cause defect in the appearance
of the front.
In laying pressed brick another
heavy expense is incurred Only
strictly first-class men are considered
competent to do the work. They are
paid the highest wages, four dollars
per day being the rate in this city. The
work is exceedingly slow. as the great
est care is required. Each brick must
be laid exactly and not fraction of an
inch off the line. The surface must be
kept perfectly clean, which also re-
quires great care. as the colOred NOR
tar, which is generally used. is very
difficult to remove if allowed to become
dry. Thus mans ability for cleanli-
ness in this respect is taken into ac-
count in considering his fitness to work
on the front. A workman will lay from
100 to 125 bricks of this kind in day.
In inside walls man will put 1000 or
1900 bricks in position in the same
time. The cost of the brick used for
backing is about six dollars per thou
sand.
The mortar used in the construction
of a front is another expensive feature.
1t is generally red or black. The prin-
cipal Ingredient used in its preparation
is manufactured in Philadelphia. 1t
resembles printers ink, and costs sew
enteen dollars barrel. just before
being used the bricklayer mixes cement
in the mortar, which hardens after il
has been laid, and binds the brick to-
gether almost as firmly as stone.-
