    Nice dig. I think you were quite correct in thinking people were drinking the extracts as a alternate alcoholic beverage. I know in Canada sometime in the mid 1900's that extracts (vanilla in particular) were no longer allowed to use alcohol as a base product. Nice to see that Bradon Empire beer bottle. As beer bottles were reused it is possible it made its way south of the border around prohibition time. I've no doubt that if you continue digging in northern North Dakota you'll come across more.

I had just watched your episode of all the extract bottles..they weren't baking..lol

    Also, i have seen the circles that indicate 'air shafts', either wooden or brick framed. Are these some kind of indoor privy, or something else?
