chance to get within hailing distance

SOME HISTORICAL FACTS
Which Show the Phenomenal Growth of
the Anheuser-Busch Brew
ing Association.

The story of the success of the An
heuser Busch Brewing association
practically begins with 1865. the wear
Adolphus Busch bought an interest in
the concern which was then being
conducted in a small and moderately
paying way.
The concern was known at that
time as +. Anheuser q Co. In 1873 il
was Incorporated under the name of
+. Anheuser d Co.'S Brewing associa-
ton with +. Anheuser as president
and AdoIphus Busch as secretary and
general manager. Upon the death of
Mr.. Anheuser in 1850, Mr.. Busch sue
ceeded to the presidency. which posi-
ton he still holds.
The Anheuser-Busch Brewing asso-
citation are the recognized pioneers in
the bottled beer industry. as they
We're the first to bottle beer for eN-
port successfully.
Under Mr.. Busch's skillful guidance
the business developed phenomenally.
Year after year il was necessary To
add new and larger structures to
keep pace with the ever increasing
sales. so that now the entire plant
equal to 60 city blocks) and consists
of brew house of 5000 barrels daily
capacity. bottling works of 100000
bottles daily capacity, ice plants of
$50 tons daily capacity, malt houses
Of $500 bushels daily capacity. Il cool
ing capacity of 1850 tons per day.
storage elevators for malt and barley
of 1.25O,G0O bushels capacity. stock
houses for lagering purposes of 49,
600 barrels capacity. a power plant
with 6O,OO0 square feet of heating
surface. equal to 1850 horse power.
of which 1000 horse power are trans
ferred TO the electric power plant just
completed and is the largest and most
complete plant of its kind of any pri-
waite corporation in the country.
Besides the above, the Anheuser-
Busch Brewing association own and
operate their own railroad. to connect
with the terminals. Also tin, carpen-
ter, wagon, paint, harness and cooper
shops.
Three thousand five hundred en-
ployes are engaged at the st. Louis
plant. About 1900 additional men are
employed at the associations ~
branches in the principal cities of the
union.
The buildings are of most modern
architecture and are built of red
brick, trimmed with granite and
white stone, and present Il most i'm
posing picture.
Six guides are employed to take
care of visitors, and it is safe to say
more people pass through this great
plant than through any other estab-
lishment in the world.
These figures form an interesting
record of growth: In 1865. 5000 bar
rels were sold, and in 1901 the million
barrel mark was passed, the sales for
1902 being 1.1O9,315 barrels. and by
far exceeds the output of any other
brewery.

practically unanimous against the
