HUBBARD, JAY. Is a man who has always shown great interest in the affairs of corporations bearing his fathers name, and the welfare of Mankato in general.

The family of which he is a member has been influential and honored for many years in this part of Minnesota, his father, the late Rensselaer D Hubbard, having been a pioneer in the milling business at Mankato, where he engaged in that industry until his death ended his successful labors.

Born in the city where he now makes his home. Jay Hubbard is now in the prime of life, his birth having occurred January 8, 1871. The rudiments of his education were obtained in the common schools and in 1890 he was graduated from the high school, after which for two years he carried on the regular studies of the University of Minnesota. The milling enterprise inaugurated by his father early engaged his attention and commanded his best efforts. For a time he was secretary and treasurer of the Hubbard Milling company and upon the death of his father he succeeded him as president of the Hubbard-Palmer Milling Company. This important and responsible position he filled until 1906, when he was succeeded by George M Palmer and since then he has given his efforts to other lines of application. He is now president of the Hubbard Company, a corporation to handle the R D Hubbard estate. For some years Mr Hubbard has acted as president of the Heusner Baking Company of Chicago, he is also treasurer of the Hubbard & Palmer Company.

The qualities of Mr Hubbard are such that he is well adapted to the management of large enterprises and averse to being identified with trivial affairs. He has always entered into the management of large affairs with enthusiasm and earnestness, and has proved the possession of executive ability as well as energy and progressive spirit.

The first marriage of Mr Hubbard was solemnized in 1898 and united him with Mary L Osborn of Mankato, who died in 1900. Two years later he was united in marriage with Miss Minnie C Schoyen, and their union has been blessed with one son, Rensselaer D.

The political views of Mr Hubbard bring him into sympathy with the Republican party. However, his interest in politics is that of a public-spirited citizen only, and office-seeking or leadership in local party matters have never been sought by him.
