Dor that is necessarily required where
even steam shovels and steam rail-
roads and trolley systems are employ
ed At the average Hampstead Har-
Dor sand bank forty men find work,
and at least one bank has pay roll
that contains over 300 names.
Scarcely any of the employees of the
sand bank are native Long Islanders.
From the beginning, despite offers of
good pay, they have steadfastly re-
fused to work in them. The foreman
are usually Swedes and the men under
them always Italians. They find pretty
steady employment all the year around.
Bad weather and holidays cause the
only Interruptions. Buildings strikes
have no terrors for them or their en-
ployers, for If the sand is not wanted
for consumption in the nearest market
New York and the suburbs-it finds
ready sale in Philadelphia, Boston and
other Eastern cities.
AS result the amount of sand taken
out of a pit in a year is staggering.
! The average daily output of a bank
employing forty men is 1000 or 1,500
tons. That means a yearly output
of some 300, 900 tons or 600, 0O0, 900 pounds
of sand. And as 1900 tons yields a
profit of 500, a bank producing that
amount daily clears to it's owners some
thing like 100000 year on 100000 TONS
According to the sand bank owner
who furnished these figures, 10000
tons of Hampstead Harbor sand are
marketed in New York nearly every
working day by dozen or so sand
banks. Roughly estimated, that gives
100000 tons a year, the net profit
on which reaches close to 100000.
No wonder that the Long Islander,
as he stands on the hill at the head
of Hampstead Harbor and beholds the
H., .,Iy~ hot cid I'D
piers leading from them to deep water,
exclaims:
"A good sand bank for mine, and
the dickens take the gold mines"

1t did more. 1t made the man
wealthy; he left a will that gave to
each of his offspring an inheritance
worth not few thousands of dollars.
The sand bank region is fun OF
similar cases. There is the story of
the manufacturer who failed and had
left only his ancestors farm, the pride
Of his heart and that was heavily
mortgaged and in danger of being
taken from him. He pocketed his
pride sought out the two men who
had been trying to buy the sea end of
the farm for sand bank and sold
them fifty acres for $1,000 an acre and
small, but profitable share in the
business. For farming purposes the
land was hardly worth $50 an acre.
Now the man has paid off all his
old indebtedness and is rapidly accum-
ulating another fortune, although it has
been only four years since he met f1nan-
cial disaster.
This mans rise and that of many
others to wealth through sand are in
variably told to the visitor in such
towns as Roslyn and Port Washing
ton in this fashion:

next dollar would come from"
And so il goes, until the visitor Won

could have sedulously refrained from

Swedish foreman of one of the sand

ancestors that keep them poor :
There's many an old Long Island
family that will not sell its ancestral
home for love or money, no matter
how much it needs the latter, and that
looks askance upon the neighbor who
will permit of such dissertation for ma
terial gain. IT was this attitude on
fhe mart of land owners that six years
ago caused the sand industry to SHIFT
from Manhasset Neck to Hampstead
Harbor.
This shift gave rise to systematic
and scientific sand industry. The banks

whether he had always used red or
white.
A second householder, being asked
the same question, replied: II always

the Long Islander, as he looked down
into the 100-foot pit, where score
of men were shoveling the golden
earth into carts, land the dickens take

Long Islanders who live along the
sound have been firm in the belief
that a sand bank beats color" as
money maker ever since a shreWd
Quaker restored the fortunes of his
family by digging up the dune on the
seafront of his farm, loading 1T on
barges and sending it to New York,
to be used for building purposes. That
was the inception of a systematic sea
SAND industry that has brought riches
10 hundreds of men and especially to
the numerous descendants of many of
the hrst white owners of the land. 1t
was likewise the opening up of Amer
lcas biggest sand field, and the be-
ginning of the end of the effort to sup
ply New York's demand for sand by
digging It up along the beaches around
Coney Island and in upper New Jer-
sey.
