The entire plant has been remodeileo me olceS
that have been put into the northwest corner ci
the brewery building handsome IN aPPPooihl-
u,ent and fixtures those of a bank oull0lnnts;
The great proportions TO which the SAFE OF O-1i
has grown compelled the establishing or a new
hottlng plant which has capacity or ntty tnous
the brewery building An exhibition OF the oottlmg
process was given which proved interesting 10 hose
who saw 1t. The OH consists OF malt ana hoI9s
and contains a small percentage OF alcoho IL rs
said 10 have great invigoTating power ana IL is
certain that It's sudden growth In popularity mas
been almost phenomenal on the SECOND ,ooI VIE
sevnraI thousand bottles Of oh" which Mr.. Huber
is giving to his guests as mementoes OF inc lhruesn
anniversary Each bottle is incased IN neat
hoy and marked with Mr.. Hubers compliments on
the outside. -, .... -, 49,
Some idea may be gathered OF the growth OF the
Huber business when il is known that the staples
have had to be enlarged to accommodate eghly
horses which are used In drawing thirty-thfee
large trucks But the stock which these trucks
distribute Is only part Of the output because ths
tracks OF the Long Island Railroad run 10 the
brewery. and cars for shipment are oe'ng con-
etantly loaded. -, r.. .. .o
The brewery proper has q capacity FOR forly,two
thousand barrels OF beer storage or twelve million
gallons AS the process of brewing beer requires
ehopt three TO three and one-half months. TINS
means that in one year nearly fifty million gallons
OF beer can be turned out. . ,
Mr. Huber said he expected to have his bicycle
track ct Browns Hotel on the Coney Island Boue-
ward finished by August 10. 1t IS TO be a three
tice and meets. Mr.. Huber will take possession CT
The hotel within a few weeks.
