PREFACE
Is the capital of Manatee County, and is located on the south bank of the Manatee River, 45 miles south of Tampa, and only nine miles from the Gulf of Mexico. .
In 1900 Bradentown was an unincorporated village of 350 people. In 1910, according to the United States census, she had in round num- bers 1,900 population. A census taken by the City Council in 1915 shows that Bradentown has a bona fide population of 3,742.
The following improvements will show that Bradentown is a pro- gressive little city, the kind that YOU would like to make a home in: Tax assessment, 1911 $1,086,000
Tax assessment, 1913 2,543,529
Tax assessment, 1916 4,600,000
Has 16 miles paved streets; has 32 miles sidewalks; has 5 miles storm sewers. Has municipally owned waterworks. Fine electric light system. Public library. Splendid school system, including County High School.
Two railroads and boat line.
New public buildings ---
County Court House $100,000.00
High School 35,000.00 1
Baptist Church 22,000.00
Presbyterian Church 20,000.00
City Hall 7,500.00
Passenger Station 7,000.00
Bradentown has eight churhes, all the fraternal organizations, good hotels and boarding houses, and many of the handsomest resi- dences to be found in South Florida.
It is located only one mile from Palmetto, and is joined on the east by Manatee, while Sarasota is twelve miles south. Being the county seat, Bradentown is naturally the commercial center of the county, and is easily accessible in all directions by good roads.
Bradentown has recently voted bonds for the purpose of building and maintaining a Municipal Golf Course and on the same tract of land will be located the Manatee County Fair Grounds, a baseball field and other amusement projects with which to entertain visitors and home folk.
If seeking a business location, a citrus grove or truck farm, a win- ter home or merely want to spend a few weeks for recreation, you can do no better than to purchase a ticket to Bradentown, where health conditions are unsurpassed and a delightful climate awaits you.
The Board of Trade has issued a booklet descriptive of this section and will be pleased to mail you one upon request.
"SEE FLORIDA FIRST"
A state oldest in white settlement and best in modern develop- ment. A state with a rare blending of the old and the new. A state where the products of the Temperate Zone and the Semi-Tropics meet on common ground and intermingling reach their highest estate-a state abounding in assets of Pure Air, Good Water, Generous Sun- shine, Ample Rainfall, and Twelve Full Months in each year to grow Grain, Grass, Root and Fruit Crops and Live Stock-a state with gentle and healing winds bearing balsam from the pines and salt air from the seas-a state fast becoming the all year round playground, health resort and income producing region of the nation-a state to which the world is invited to come and study and enjoy by staying, prolong life and comfort.
