Hebron MORTON CITY GAINS | - WIDE REPUTATIONBY BRICK MANUFACTURE Quarter- Is Growing Despite Many Handicaps FARMERS ARE DIVERSIFYING illion-Dollar Concern! Milking Cows and Raising Hogs and Cattle Are Displacing Wheat Farming Hebron, N. D., Nov. 21.—The state | of North Dakota has not made much headway as yet in developing its! wealth of mineral resources. A few! starts have been made, however, and if a history is ever written of such de- velopments with the state the city of Hebron is sure to occupy a place of honor as one of the pioneers. It has proved to the world that local re- sources may be successfully developed by local men and local capital. The Hebron Brick and Tile com- pany was established in a small way in 1904 and, except for seasonal shut- downs and a disastrous fire, has been in continuous operation for 26 years. The pioneers were Charles Weigel and Ferdinand Leutz. For the first three years of operation the clay was hauled by teams a distance of six miles, but in 1907 a narrow-gauge tramway was built to the mines, which greatly in- creased the output. The company was reo! in 1913-14 and the first big brick plant was erected at a cost of $250,000. The buildings and much of the equipment were destroyed by fire in 1926, but were replaced the following year at & cost of $85,000. The buildings have a total floor used annually in the kilns, but probably will be reduced, as one of kilns recently has been fitted wit natural gas. ‘Use Power Shovel In former years the labor cost ran as high as $80,000 per season, but large | reductions wese made in this item by the installation of labor-saving de- vices. A power shovel, operated by two men, now loads all the clay needed for the daily output. This formerly re- quired the services of 14 men with| Picks and shovels. A. M. Halstead has been actively connected with this enterprise since | 1913, and for the last eight years has been president and manager. E.: E. Jaeger still is on the job after 17 years as plant superintendent. “Hebron brick,” says Mr. Halstead, “is in evidence ail over North Dakota and in many sections of Montana and other states. In 1924 we shipped a million brick to Seattle. The builders there wanted Hebron brick because it was of exceptional density and hard- ness and did not absorb the moisture so prevalent in that locality. You can always tell a Hebron brick building as fas as you can see it—whether it is one year old of twenty it always looks Emil Krauth, one of Hebron’s pio- neer business leaders, had these en- ; | management. was made in cooperation with the Greater North Dakota association, and a small number of mortgages against farms was found in the townships where such lists were completed.

The city of Hebron is served by five active religious organizations, the Roman Catholic, Evangelical, Evan- gelical Lutheran, and two Congrega- tional churches, English and German. Two brass bands were organized at. Hebron this year by Robert Evans | Bruce, the great Indian cornetist. One will be a city band, the other a high school band, each with 25 or 30 mem- bers.
