. fine BRICK
LAST LOT OF PRESSED BRICK
MADE BY WAsHBURNs WORKS
ARE EXCELLENT.
THIS DEMONSTRATES. THAT CLAY
OF BuRLEIGH COUNTY is a
SUPERIOR QUALITY.

Manager Macomber of the Wash
burn Ignite Coal and Brick Company,
was in the city Wednesday night en-
route to the eastern part of the state
with samples of the last burning of
pressed brick from the company's
plant in this county, near Wilton. The
samples shown are as fine as pressed
brick made any place in the United
States, barring none, and demonstrate
that the clays of Burleigh county are
of the best quality for brickwork.
The brick shown by Mr.. Macomber
are deep reddish brown Of delicate
shade and are remarkable for the
eyenness of the color and the perfec-
ton of the mechanical work. When
struck together they ring like metal.
The clay used for these brick is
taken from underneath the coal strata
in the mine, a distance of about Is
feet below the surface of the ground,
and is very easy to work. An even
better clay has been located about
125 feet below the surface, under the
mine, and it is probable arrangements
will soon be made to work this vein.
The clay from which the brick are
now made burns to several tints, any
one of which is handsome and durable,
but the majority of the kilns are red
shade. OF the last kiln of 12o brick
| burned less than ten per cent. are
second quality.
