in New Clm this year for this staple
article has been from one to four cents
higher all fall than in nsighboring
towns with an even market. Ia the face
of this, few will be found to say that
our mills are not doing the proper thing
I by the city.
/ Next to the mills, the institution 1equir-
ling the largest capital to operate is the
New UlmElevater Company. Che value
| of their buildings is estimated at $50, 900
and the money invested is in the vicinity
Of 100000. Since August 1st they
| have handled 350,O0O bushels of grain,
much OF which, with the exception of
flax, was disposed of to the city mills.
! OF faxtheY bought and cleaned 10000
bushels and shipped it to Chicago. The
company employs about twenty men
and the wages for the same is fully $1O,-
i 000a year.
1 AS it has been with the mills so it has
y
exampled prosperity. Both Mr.. Schell
and Mr.. Hauenstein have taxed their
breweries to their utmost capacity and
so great has been the demand for their
stock in trade that each has seen the
necessity Of enla1ging their establish
ments.
Mr.. Hauenstein manufactured II, 900
barrels and Mr.. Schell an equal amount
The former has already doubled the
capacity of bis brewery and the latter
will during the year increase that OF his
to 10000 barrels, so that by the end of
1892 New Ulm will have two of the
largest institutions of this kind in the
state. Their shipments are confined al
most exclusively to Minnesota, east and
west along the Northwestern line, north
to Gibbon and south to st. James. Mr.,
Schell employs 13 men and Mr.. Hauen-
stein L..
Jos. Schmueker has also added to the
number of his buildings and is at pres
ent contemplating the erection of an
entirely new brewery. He makes beer
for his own use only and does not ship
to other points.
Then too, the New Ulm Brewing
Company is doing good local business
and bids fair to increaseits sales during
the present year.
The New Ulm Creamery also beat its
last years record in the manufacture
of butter.s Nine men were employed dur
ling the busy seasons of the year and the
output Of the creamery was 100000
pounds of creamery butter and 10000
pounds Of imitation creamery. The
manager of the company, Mr.. Crone, al
SO handled 100000 dozen of eggs.
| The Vinegar Works has kept pace
with the other industries of the city and
last year turned out over 5000 barrels.
Six men were employed the year round,
and the factory has freque ntly been
pushed to fill the incoming orders. Ship
ments are confined to Minnesota, Dakota
and Iowa, and the product stands high in
the market, having passed the strongest
tests of the dairy and food commission.

consumers to other brands.
The brickyards, of course, are among
the chief interests to be considered in

and here as in everything else the sta
tistics are healthy and encouraging. Mr..
Aufderheide, the principle manufacture
er. employed 40men and made $500, 600
common brick besides 10000 fire brick
Everyyear adds to the output of his yards
and it is only a question of time when
our people will wake up to the fact that
in this industry lies one of New Ulm's
surest opportunities for future growth.
