Twin City Brick Co., St. Paul, Minn., W. Siwart Smit, Secy. and Gen. Mgr. – “The increase in business in our line compared with the latter part of 1908 is about 20 per cent. It should be borne in mind, however, that in this section of the country the decrease in business during 1908 compared with the preceding year was not as much as in the middle west and in the east. We personally do not expect another great increase in the coming year, although the prevailing idea seems to point in that direction. The price of materials has advanced to such an extent and wages likewise that the cost of building is very much greater than six months ago and this will materially check any great expansion of building, since the building trade is fairly well caught up this year with the shortage.”
