ART IN BRICK MAKING
Excellent Results Obtained by the
Menomonfe Hydraulic Press Brick


Excellent Results Obtained by the
Menomonfe Hydraulic Press Brick
Company.
In observing the great number Of brick
buildings erected within the past few
years in the vicinity OF the twin cities.
one is impressed with the high degree OF
perfection which has been obtained ia tho
art of press brick manufacture. In
nearly all Of the more prominent business
and private buildings, and especially
those which attract attention On account
Of their exterior beauty, the bricks have
been furnished by the Menonnonie Ay-
draulic-Pres Brick company. This COM
pany, with it's several plants, located In
different parts of the country, bears the
distinction Of being the largest 1nantIfAc-
turers Of press brick IN the world, their
annual output being over SOC, 000, 900 bricks
in at least 125 different shades.
A thing which has won for the company
a. wide reputation is the faneness Of tex
ture and absolute permanenee Of color
of their bricks. It is an established and
inviolable rule on the part OF tbs CONF
pany never to use particle OF artificial
coloring matter IN the manufacture 81
their goods, all of their many colors be-
ing produced from the mixture OF natural
clays and the scientific application Of
fire. They manufacture the celebrated
Menomonie red pressed brick and the
Menomonie sand mould at Menononfe,
Wis. These bricks are familiar to every
person who has travelled in Minnesota.

Christian association is erecting aecom-
modious building this year. The OPP
portunities for participation in the work
and benefits Of the religious bodies are
simply unlimited.
q 1t will not surprise the reader to learn
that. among a people in whom the idea
Of home is we'll developed, who foster edu-
cation and religion, who have an eye to
the beauty of their city and the cultiva-
ton OF art-that in such community the is
average OF intelligence and culture is
high. It may be said without disparage-
ment to ether localities, that the basis OF
Minneap polls culture and public spirit IS
the strong New England element2in the
population. It is an element which, while
lacking nothing in enterprise. sand bust
ness activity, stands for good government,
education, broad public policy and intense
loyalty. This municipal loyalty IS not
easily understood by people VINO 40 not
realize that many of the leading Mime
apolitans have watched the city grow from
village to metropolitan proportions; nave
had hand in it's development, have win
constant faith put their all into Mime
apolis, at the same time urging others 70
do SO. They take peculiar pride in the
beauties of the city; they think 1t is the
best place in the world to live, and, win
generous hospitality, want every one else
to think 50, too. So -
As Minneapolis has become larger and
larger, the public spirit, which, in earlier
years. prevented the advent Of the profess
sional politician into municipal politics
has in some measure lost Its influence
The city government is a combination Of
the council and board plan. The mayor
has limited powers. The schools, parks
and library are in the hands Of separate
boards. They are uniformly we'll man
aged and are, fairly, free from politics

ground. Natural surfaces adapt them
selves readily to street opening and build
ing. There is nothing in the physical
conditions to suggest the possibility of
crowding, either of business interests or
Inhabitants. There is plenty OF roota
for the city to grow. The city's eleva-
ton above the sea level is 500 feet.
By reason of it's geographical position,
Minneapolis enjoys climatic conditions
quite unique, the popularity being found
in the generally dry atmosphere during
the winters and an unusual percentage Of
fair days out Of the 365 in the year. The
winters are usually uniformly cold. The
thousands Of Minnesota lakes being then
frozen and the remoteness Of other large
bodies Of water, precludes the possibility
of EXTENDED periods OF moist winds. For
this reason the snowfall is very light.
In spring, summer and fall, there are
usually copious rains, but nothing ap-
proximating the wet seasons of the Pacific
coast. The average temperature Of the
winter months is AGO degrees; Of the
summer 1880 degrees. The snow lies on
the ground without melting during three
winters out of four. disappearing early in

There are many minor officers and de
partments. Less than a million dollars
are required annually for the general
running expenses Of the city. The tax
rate averages about two per cent. includ-
ing an item which creates a sinking fund
which provides for the payment of bonds
as fast as due. The city's credit is SO
good that four per cent bonds are readily
fioated. Fire department and water works
show high degrees: of efficiency. ~--
A building ordinance places all new
structures under the supervision of an in
spector, and "fire limits indicate a large
central section of the city within which
no inf1ammable or extra hazardous build
ing may be erected.
:One of the most popular municipal
laws is that establishing the so-caIed
"patrol limits outside Of which no sa-
looms may be maintained. This law OPP
crates to keep the saloons in the business
portion of the city and away from the
resident sections. There are no "cor-
ner grocery saloons in Minneapolis. A
saloon license Of $1,000 per anrum pre-
vents the lower groggeries from getting
foothold and brings a revenue of about
$3.50, 900 to the city-there being only
about $50 saloons maintained in all. 1t
is significant that this Number does not
increase from year 10 year. There are
Sunday and midnight closing laws, and
ordinances forbidding the sale Of liquors
to drunkards and minors. There is, Of
course, alb 1ndant room in many directions
for improvement in the municipal gov
eminent; but the city has been on the
whole much better governed thar most
large municipalities.
1t has been the endeavor in what has
been said to reflect in a measure the con-
ditions of life in Minneapolis. It has been
possible to mention but small part OF
the attractions Of the city. Many pages
might be written in description of public
buildings and architectural features

Partly on account of it's climate. and
partly by reason of it's sanitary condi-
lions, Minneapolis is the healthiest large
city in the world For some years the
death rate has been about ten IN a thou

ranging from twenty to thirty IN most
other cities in the country. Epidemics
are almost unknown and the city has been
successful in preventing such scourges as
smallpox from obtaining a foothold within
its borders. .5 ...s..-~
Perhaps the most important factor in
the health record of Minneapolis, is the
housing of her people. Minneapolis is a
city of homes. A larger percentage OF
the inhabitants occupy their own houses
