The importance of the brewing interests
OF the country is OF such huge proportions
| in the trade and IN of the u. i.
that it can not be over estimated. The
well known excellence aud purity oi
American ales and porter has long since
been acknowledged by even those counoi.
seurs OF good ale and porter, "the foreign
ers." Prominent and conspicuous anon
the many great and meritorious brewing
plants OF the n. H.. States and one that
will compare with any similar concern in
the country, We find the Eagle Brewing
Co, brewers OF Canada matt, Xxx ale,
and stock porter. This popular plant was
started in 1874. in a small wooden build
ing on Cedar st. this city, by Mr.. Il. Kelly,
and so successful was he in satisfying the
desires OF his customers that more com
modioEs quarters We're needed TO keep up
with the demands OF the trade. Accordingly
about seven years ago he moved TO his
present site on West Exchange ST.. occu-
pying the same old building erected by
him on Cedar ST., which has been moved
to West Exchange st. Still the business
grew to such proportions that In 1894 a
larger wooden building was erected and
during the past year a handsome brick
building, 35x15 IT., five stories high and
basement, together with al addition of
an immense boiler house as well as a g
story ice machine house, was found neces-
sary in order that customers would not be
Obliged to wait for the hlling of orders.
The ice machine in use at the brewery is
the celebrated de La Verne ice making
machine, having a capacity OF % tons daily.
During the coming summer an additional
building will be erected, if anything,
larger than the present building, in order
TO enable the company TO brew lager beer,
their speciality now being Canada Malt
xxx Ale and stock porter. These bra ids
are highly recommended by physicians
from a medical point OF view for medic
inal purposes, are pure and wholesome
and represent in their manufacture the
highest degree OF excellence in the art OF
brewing. The company have -four ar
tesian wells besides one now under con-
struction from which they obtain their
waterssupply for the manufacture OF their
now Justly celebrated ales and porter. The
great success the company has enjoyed
has led them to place on the market in a
short time a new brilliant still ale, an ale
that Is purified in the brewery and can
no rolled into cellars and tapped at-eaee.
This feature will prove OF in%estimable val
ne to those who desire a still, ale that can
be put to immediate use. 1t is the inten-
ton OF the company that as soon as their
lager beer plant Il in successful operation
to build a thoroughly equipped betting
house in order TO do their own bottlinv,
thus enabling them To ill all orders
promptly, without necessitating their be-
ing compelled TO have their bottling done
by some other house. The total cana CITY
will then be 100. 600 barrels per year OF the
best grades OF ale, porter aud lager beer,
the brewing capacity being now over four
times larger than when they started in the
old wooden building on Cedar ST.. Surely
this is a record OF which any institution
should be proud, representing as IL cer-
tainly does, able and iudicious manage
ment as well as absolute ana thorough
