New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1914-12-19

Within the past year new industry
has been located in New Ulm which
promises to make good and give en-
ployment to quite number of our
people. This is the Northwestern Battery
Manufacturing Company which began
the manufacture of dry cell batteries
in this city September 1st.
1t was early last spring that Carl
Jaeger, an inventor of some prominence,
and A. L. Otter of Minneapolis appeared
before the Commercial Club with a
proposition to remove their battery
manufacturing plant from Minneapolis
to New Ulm. The industrial committee
of the club investigated the proposition
and reported favorably, but for some
reason or other the Commercial Club
and the city could not get together and
cinch the new industry and Mr.. Jaeger
and MIR. Otter had about decided to
= drop all negotiations here and see what
could be done elsewhere. It was at
this time that Conrad Dirks and Frank
H. Behnke interested themselves in
the proposition and by their united
efforts succeeded in inducing the battery
people to come here.
Considerable trouble was experienced
in finding suitable place to commence
the manufacture of batteries in. At
last lease of the Star Hall was secured
and there the plant is located at the
present time.
Ten people are employed now and the
daily output is from five to six hundred
batteries. This is only half the capacity
however and it is expected that thou
sand or more will be manufactured
daily soon and that the number Of
employees will be increased to Is or 20
men. Of those employed now, one is
a girl and the rest are young men none
under 10 years of age.
A new labor-saving machine has been
ordered from Germany and as soon as
this has been received and installed the
daily capacity can be easily increased
100000 or 5000. -
Enough orders have been already
received to keep the plant busy for the
next two or three months. The COM
pany has two statesmen on the road and
several travelling men who carry the

HOTEL ACCOMMODATIONS I'M
PROVED.

From IS room hostelry the Dakota
House was during the past summer
increased to As rooms and 2 additional
sample rooms provided. This was &C
.complished by building an edition 36x34
feet. It is built OF brick and is three
stories high. The cost Of this improve
ment is estimated at $4,000. The mason
work was done by Fred Keute, the
carpenter work by Adam Mueller and
the painting by Adam ]. Peters. Chas.
Emmerich installed the plumbing and
heating and Adolph Setter did the
electric wiring.
For over year the Dakota House
was unable to take care of the transients
that were anxious to stop at their
popular inn and Mine Host johnson
decided that it was up to him to provide

A NEW FINANCIAL CONCERN.

The State Bond and Mortgage Com
pany is the largest new concern which
has opened for business during the past
year. This company is comprised of
many of the city's most prominent bust
ness and professional men. They or
ganized under the laws of the State of
Minnesota with a capital stock of $100,
100000 The business is under the direct
supervision of the state banking depart
ment, and frequent examinations of it's
affairs assure the investor of the securi-
ty Of their interests.

floors, very beautiful they are, too.
But to step into the little cottage, neat
as pin, occupied by the Henry Schie-
mann family, on South Jefferson Street,
is to imagine ones self in house Of an
earlier day. The house was built by
DR.. J. L. Schoch for investment purposes
and very shortly afterwards was ex-
changed by him for the Schiemann house.
The new house contains five rooms and
is not modern. It is valued at $4,000.

A DIFFERENT SORT.

Only one house was built during the
past year with the soft pine finish that
used to be so commonly used. Many of
the houses have been finished with the
yellow or Georgia pine and quite num-
Der have solid oak, doors, castings and

known and successful business men.
The company deals in farm mort
cages and offers for sale mortgages
which will net the investor per cent.
Only mortgages in which the company
has invested it's own money and which
it can recommend, are offered. All
titles are guaranteed and interest col
lections are taken care of free, of charge.
Bonds based on farm mortgages, which
will net the investor 5 per cent, payable
semi-annually, are issued in amounts Of
500, $500 and $1,000. The security
for these bonds is at all times subject
to the inspection of the state banking
department.
A unique method for saving money
has also been devised by the company.
Under this plan anyone can accumulate
$1,000 by laying aside $1,000 year
or smaller in amounts semi-annually,
quarterly or monthly for period Of ten
year,, A person not only saves $1,000
a year for 10 years or $72O, but as he re-
ceives $1,000 in cash, he makes $3.50
on his yearly investments.
Five hundred dollars can be accumu-
lated in the same manner by laying aside
$50. year. This method, which en-
courages thrift is bound to meet with
public approval.
An insurance department is also main
tanned. Insurance in all its branches IS
written with special facilities for prompt
service.
