Jobbers and Manufacturers.
Chickasha is the reeoganized jobbing centre of this section of the south-
west. Its location and resources have enabled it to obtain this
position of supremacy which it is continually strengthening.
Many jobbing lines are represented by one or more responsible
firms while in the manufacturing industries the city is fortunate.
A city possessing the advantages enjoyed by Chickasha always has
room for more jobbing firms and manufactories. Full infor-
mation on this point may be obtained by writing the secretary
of our commercial club V. F. Gkanlek.
