  The 
  Alfred 
  clay 
  co. 
  While 
  the 
  chief 
  product 
  of 
  this 
  company 
  

   is 
  dry 
  pressed 
  brick, 
  it 
  has 
  recently 
  gone 
  into 
  the 
  manufacture 
  of 
  

   roofing 
  tile, 
  but 
  the 
  only 
  style 
  thus 
  far 
  produced 
  by 
  them 
  is 
  a 
  

   shingle 
  tile, 
  one 
  of 
  the 
  peculiarities 
  of 
  which 
  is 
  that 
  it 
  is 
  made 
  by 
  

   the 
  dry 
  press 
  process. 
  The 
  tile 
  is 
  also 
  of 
  the 
  interlocking 
  type, 
  

   but 
  differs 
  in 
  many 
  respects 
  from 
  that 
  made 
  at 
  Alfred 
  center.
