the Uurban Mercantile Company was
incorporated and took over the bust
ness. Those interested in the COM
pany at the time it was started were
John Urban, A. C. Urban, C. F. Lang
bein, William Kick, George Urban,
George Funk. and E. G. Langbein. Ar
tlcles of incorporation were filed with
the secretary of the state and a charter
was issued to the company April 4,
1908. Since that time Mr.. Kick has
purchased the stock of some of the
other members Of the firm and at the
present time there are only four of
the original stockholders interested in
the company. The firm does thriv-
ing business.

After two weeks. baking the bricks
are allowed ten additional days in the
kiln in which to cool. The seals Of
the kiln are then broken open and
the workmen load the bricks onto bar
rows and wheel them out beside the
spur track where they are ready for

it's product to the builders of the
western section of that country. There
are already in fact, a number of homes
in Canada that are faced with Hebron
brick.
Complete Modern Equipment.
The brick company has one of the
most modern and completely equipped
plants that can be found anywhere. 1t
has it's own round house for it's loco
motives, it's own car repair shops for
the maintenance of its cars, it's own
pumping station and electric light

sponsible for the brick being used in
some of the most prominent and the
best buildings over the northwest, the
Pacific coast and Canada. How well
the Hebron product has been receiv-
ed by contractors and builders since
manufacturing began might be noted
when it is learned that in 1905 there
were 332,494 bricks sold, while in 1909
there were 3,650397 bricks sold. With
the improvements which have been
made during 1910 the plant now has a
capacity of nearly 100000 bricks
annually.

Hebron has one of the most modern
|drub stores along the line of the Nor
thern Pacific. 1t is owned by Kath-
ryn L. Bralnard and registered phar-
macist is in charge of the prescription
work. The store is located in the
handsome new Merchants Bank build

cies is conducted by Eugene Weigel,
who has been a resident of the town
for a number of years.

is thoroughly pulverized. An eleva-
tor carries it up to the second floor
where it passes over a screen and the
finely pulverized dust Sits through in
to mixer. In case any of the clay is
not ground into fine powder it is car
ried back to the crusher where it goes
through the first process once more.
From the mixer on the second floor
are chutes which carried the pulver-
lied clay down to the pressing and
stamping machine where the bricks
are moulded by enormous pressure.
There are little iron boxes into which
the clay is carried and the massive
ironmould fits into this and presses it
together. There is a pressure of al.
most ton to the square inch and
when the mould has completed it's
work the bricks are automatically
elected to the front of the machine
where workmen are in waiting with
their wheelbarrows and cart them off
to one of the kilns whre they are
baked.
The kijns.
The company has six kilns which
are kept in constant use. Each kiln
has capacity of 1876, 900 bricks. When
a kiln is filled with bricks ready for
the baking, the ends of the kiln are
sealed up and light fires started. For
the first seven days the fires are not
kept very big as only small amount
of heat is used at the start in order
that the bricks might be dried out
thoroughly. The kiln is started at

town who do their trading at this point
For this reason there are a number of
splendid stores at Hebron, some of
which would be credit to a city many
times larger.
The Brick Yards.
When a contractor or builder thinks
Of Hebron he naturally thinks of
pressed brick" at the same instant,
for the name of the Hebron Fire and
Pressed Brick company has become
heralded far and wide the length and
breadth of the continent and is fast
becoming known to the contractors in
Canada. The factory is one of the
leading industries of the slope and
Hebron is thus one of the great indus
trial centers of this section OF the land
Of opportunities.
Description Of the Plant.
The Hebron Fire and Pressed Brick
company has located its kilns in the
western section of the town on the
north side of the tracks. They may
be clearly seen from the railway line
and are a splendid advertisement of
the enterprise and industry of the resi-
dents Of Hebron when seen by the
hundreds of travellers who pass by.
The Clay Bank and Mine.
The clay bank owned by the COM
pany is situated about six miles north
Of town and Immediately adjoins a
Ignite coal mine. The company mines
all its own coal which is used at it's
plant. 1t has constructed a narrow
gauge railway line from the clay bank

after the constant welfare and better
ment of his people.
Other Churches.
In addition to the Evangelical church
Hebron has two other churches, the
Catholic and the Congregational. The
Catholic church was constructed in
1908 and is a handsome structure.
There are many members of this faith
residing in the community. The Con-
gregationalists erected a handsome
church building in ten city which was
dedicated in 1910. They have large
number of members among the Ameri.
can residents of the village.

Hebron, situated at the extreme
western edge of Morton county, might
properly be called a city of homes.
1t is located on the main line of the
Northern Pacific railway about sew
enty-tive miles west of Bismarck, the
capital city, and the wholesale center
from which it receives it's supplies.
Hebron is a German settlement and

resident of this section of the country
even before the first colonists arrived.
Both Mr.. Weigel and Mr.. Leutz take

General Stores.

The first store to be established on
the present site of the village of Heb
ron was that of Krauth & Leutz, who
had conducted trading post on the
banks of Knife River four miles west
of the town. With the arrival of the
first colonists and the founding of a
town, Krauth & Leutz moved into the
new settlement. There they conduct
ed a general store and trading post I'M
til 1890, when they sold out to Mr..
Dichtenmueller. who was one of the
members of the first colonist party.
Mr.. Dichtenmueller ran this store for
many years, but short time ago re-
tired from active business life, his
sons assuming the management of the
firms business which is now conduct
ed under the name of Dichtenmueller
Brothers.
Urban Mercantile Company.
There is also another large general
store in Hebron at the present time
which is under the management of the
Urban Mercantile Company. The store
was started by Charles Weigel in 1890.

VALUE OF BIRDS TO FARMERS.

10y senator NIlu 0ldiidlIsl
The great value that birds render
farmers in destroying noxious insects
which prey upo nall kinds of crops
cannat be estimated
can remember the time hcrc p
years ago, when 1t was not unconl
mon to see hundreds Of prairie chick
ems and quails in the course of n
single day on the prairies large
lunches Of wild turkeys ranged tho
hills. But the market hunter and
the potshootcr have almost eXtermi-
mated these. During the time that
these birds existed in great numbers,
insects were kept in check the
spraying Of fruit trees was unknown
and we did not hear of Paris Green
and arsenic as an inseciicidcl
It is claimed that a single quail viii

season, hence il should be the earn
est desire Of every farmer and fruit
grower to protect his little fcathered
friends. which work for him the
quail lark dove hawks ana owls. TO
this list should be added skunkS and
oxes, which prey almost exclusively
upon field mice, rats and rabbits. l'be
owl and hawk subsist upon rats, mice
and rabbits, with an occasional brd
or chicken, but they do far more good
Than harm.
The birds are raised on tho farms,
they should belong to the farmer and
every father should teach his sons tq
protect the birds, they are his friends.
When you see a thoughtless yonN
going forth with gun shooting ey-
cry bird plead with him to save them,
law should be specially enacted

turkeys for ten years The market
hunter from the cities Is the worst
offender against the birds. They 90
forth with a brace of trained dogs,
armed with automatic shotguns, aho
once a flock of quails is found they
almost exterminate the entire lot.
They have but little respect for the
rights Of the farmer, often killing the
birds around his yard, unless re
strained. I want to see the office o.
the state game and fish warden aboF
ished. and its powers and duties CIV
en- into the hands Of the state board
of agriculture, whose twelve members
are all farmers. elected by farmers.
This board will appoint farmers as
deputies who live in the country, who
are interested in protecting the birds,
instead of appointing politicians
whose chief duty is drawing a sal
arv and who generally own no farms.
If you fail to become interested IN
the saving of our birds, It VIII only
be a few years until much money and
time will have to be expended IN
combating the insect pests, which
are now menacing the farmers Of this
state as ever before.
