HOTOGEAPHY offers a good field]
for Minneapolis manufacturing
enterprise. With the commercial
photograph business and the enthusi
astic devotion of the thousands of ama
teurs in the twin cities and tho north
west, a wide field is open for cultiva
tion. Millions of dollars' worth of ma
terials and appliances for utilization in
this art "are said to be used in terri
tory tributary to Minneapolis every
year, which is making profitable busi
ness for outside manufacturers. The
city supports several photograph supply
houses and the trade which centers hero
has created a good business for the de
uartment stores and other places of
business which sell photographic ma
terials. The first profit of manufactur
ing, however, does not accrue in any
way to a city arid territory which fur
nishes such an immense income to the
so-called rfffbtographic trust and other
manufacturers in this line.
Consumers of photographic materials
would like to see a factory started in
Minneapolis, to begin with tho manu
facture of the less-complicated mate
rials and then to broaden out to cover
the whole line. While combine agencies
and other stores handling this class of
goods give fair service, consumers be
lieve it would be to their own advan
tage as well as a gain to the city to
have the source of supply within the
city's gates. Long waits for articles
that must be shipped from the factory
would be avoided, and in the case of
regular shipments the time used in fill
ing orders would be perceptibly re
duced.
The fact that Minneapolis is a much
nearer distributing point to the vast
northwest has always been used as nn
argument in favor of making this point
a great manufacturing center. Goods
manufactured here are at least a week
nearer the western market than the
CITY NEWS
MORE CITY FOLK
GO TO THE LAKES
TRAVEL TO MINNETONKA THIS
YEAR HEAVIER THAN USUAL.
Last Month 18,000 Went to 'Tonka and
3,000 to White BearNew Trains
Put On to Carry the CrowdsOther
Nearby Lakes Well Patronized.
Already this summer season at Lake
Minnetonka is a record breaker in the
number of persons who have made the
lake trip from Minneapolis the past
month. Some 8,000 have taken trains
at the union station for the lake and
at least 10,000 have gone to the lake
by way of the Minneapolis & St. Louis
road.
Over 3,000 Minneapolis residents
have taken the trip to White Bear
lake. White Bear, however, is looked
upon as a St. Paul resort, and rather
out of the way for Minneapolis people,
hence its lak of patronage from this
city, in spite of a cheaper railroad fare.
Most of the railroads are sending the
same number of trains to the lakes this
year as last, six to eight trains leaving
daily for Lake Minnetonka over each
of the roads touching that resort.
The St. Louis road officials say that
the coming month will see a great'in
crease in their volume of business to
Minnetonka, and in addition it is ex
pected fully 12,000 persons will go to
Minnetonka from the union station. A
round-trip fare of 50 cents is made for
all Minnetonka points and 35 cents by
the Northern Pacific to White Bear and
return. Sundays the Northern Pacific
makes a round trip White Bear rate of
but 25 cents. The summer train sched
ule on the Northern Pacific started
May 15.The road is doing a large
summer passenger business to Taylors
Falls, Forest lake, Sturgeon lake, Moose
lake and other summer outing points
along the line.
The summer train schedule was put
in effect on the Great Northern May
27. This year, in addition to the sched
ule of one year ago, there are two more
trains a day each way, including a train
leaving at 6:30 a.m. for Minnetonka.
This is a train that will serve fisher
men.
The Minneapolis & St. Louis has the
same frequent train service in effect
as last season, with the addition of a
'golfer leaving'at 3:40 p.m. There
is also a late train Saturday nights,
which will be convenient for lake dwell
ers who have to remain in the city till
a late hour.
The Omaha road reports an extra
large summer business this year. Sum
mer visitors are trooping out by the
score to spend early vacations at Turtle
lake. Shell lake,' Spooner and other
Omaha-line resorts.

eastern factories now supplying the
needs of the people. A near source of
supply enables country dealers and con
sumers to order in smaller and more
varied lots, and at more frequent times.
This is an advantage, it will be ad
mitted, to the dealer, enabling him to
satisfy a more varied line of demand
and to do business on less capital, or
without tying up so much money in
his business.
Photography in the Van.
Photography is one of the most ac
tive lines of commerce in the territory.
One of the first businesses that makes
its appearance in the new communi
ties which are constantly springing up
in the northwest is the photograph
gallery. Villages that seem scarcely
able to support a church, a bank or a
store have sometimes two galleries and
often three. Whether it is an appeal
to the vanity of the people, or whatever
it is, the business of taking likenesses
appears to be prosperous. That is one
of the reasons why the assertion that
millions of dollars of business in photo
graph materials "and implements is done
in the northwest annually does not
seem a wild estimate.
In addition to this demand the call
from amateurs is immense. The twin
cities and their territory are not less
virulently inoculated with the ama
.teur photograph habit than are other
communities farther east. Nearly
every family boasts some sort of pho
tographic outfit varying in extent and
cost with the size of the family and
the fullness of the pocketbook. Com
mercial photographers and business
houses which make a specialty of de
veloping the plates and films of the
amateurs exist in profusion in the
larger cities of the northwest and ap
parently thrive in a business which a
very few years ago was nil.
DARING AERONAUT'S
NERVE FAILS HER
"High heels are it," said"a Nicollet
avenue shoeman today. "Women who
follow the ultra styles are wearing
French heels downtown with the natural
result that the easy carriage acquired
by the athletic girl is giving place to a
balancing proposition that is scarcely
graceful.
"Just what the beauty of a peg
French heel is for the street I have
never heard anyone explain. Watch
that girl going "down the street. She
is thrown so far forward that she is irJ
actual danger of falling. Yesterday I
saw a girl hesitating for several minutes
on a high curb and thought that she was
ill. A policeman asked her if theTe
was anything' that he could do and she
confessed. It seems' that she had just
bought a pair of shoes with, high French
heels, and was afraid to step off the
curb. The policeman magnanimously
offered to lift her down. His offer
was accepted."

While well-known houses are already
established in the business of making
photographers* supplies, patents do not
interfere with the manufacture by oth
er firms of supplies, not even of snap
shot cameras, altho the trademark
names may be copyrighted. Photog
raphers affirm that altho some of them
have always been used to employing
some certain brand of plates or films,
for instance, they have enough of the
local spirit to endorse a movement for
the manufacture of a Minneapolis line,
should it prove to be equal or better
in quality and effectiveness. Seed and
cramer plates, for instance, made under
combine auspices, are nearly as well
known as the name the city where
they are manufactured. Some photog
raphers have used them ever since the
tedious process of making wet plates
by the artist himself went out of fash
ion. These facts do not, however, op
erate to cry down the organization of
a company in Minneapolis to manufac
ture plates of a new brand. They
might prove better, and in the crop of
latter-day artists which is coming on
alone would find sufficient sale to make
the business profitable.

glass purposes. Knowledge of this fact
has suggested that in the elaboration of
the photographic supplies factory a
glass plant to make the material for
the plates might be started later. The
stratunij which reaches the surface in
?'his
laces is at times thirty feet thick,
sand .is no novelty to any Min
neapolis citizen who has ever watched
deep excavation carefully. The supply
is without limit.
Photographers are not restrained by
patents from manufacturing their own
wet, plates and they are not re
strained from making dry plates if
they should find it profitable. There
is therefore no drawback in the way of
previous claims upon the manufacture
of dry plates with a Minneapolis
stamp. The process of making films
being exactly the same on celluloid in
stead of glass the combined manufact
ure of plates and films offers a good
basis for the beginning of operations
of a new factory. Plates are the most
used article in the business and they
can be used but once. This consump
tion makes a sure and a rapid busi
ness for manufacturing firms and
agents, of jobbing houses which handle
this class of goods, without reference
to any other accessories of the art.
