A Million of Brick.

At the foot of Water street, in this city,
he two brick kilns, owned by Hosea B.
Phillips, have just been fired. Each kiln
contains about 100000 brick.
For five months four men have been at
work in each brick yard, and the brick
now burning represents the work for the
season.
1t will take about ten days to burn the
brick, and in the operation about 200
cords of wood will be used. The fires are
kept running night and day, ten cords
being used up every twelve hours.
Most of the brick made here find a
market at Bar Harbor and other points
along the Maine coast. At prevailing
prices there is no money in shipping them
to Boston.
To one unfamiliar with the process of
brick making, visit to these yards,
where the burning is still going on, is
one we'll worth making.
