Hydatso from Tower City, North Dakota

Recently acquired this quart sized bottle. All I can find online is an advertisement from 1904. Is anyone familiar with this company or bottle?

Beautiful bottle. All I can say is it looks to be right around that era of the early 1900s. If I'm not mistaken the crown top looks applied meaning its likely older than the teens, and the slug plate design is usually a good judge for that too. Don't know anything about the company though.

That's a really nice clean quart. It was a mineral water company. An advertisement from 1904 is a lot more than some I've tried to research. Is this the ad? Second to none.

The top is tooled and it is a Post Mold bottle. The ad I found was at the top right corner of the paper but it's the same newspaper. I believe it was an April 1904 issue.
Found the makers mark on the heel at the back.
"A.B.G.M.CO"
Adolphus Busch Glass Manufacturing Co. It appears like they used this mark from 1893-1905 and 1908-1920

Tower City was a small town, the 1900 census was 468 residents and by 1910 there was 452. That was as large as the town ever got. I would be curious how many bottles would be around as it was a small town with what looks like a short run of the company.
