UFACTURING COMPANY.

UFACTURING COMPANY.
This agency is located on street, be-
tween Second and Third. The Studebaker
Company is known in all quarters of the
globe, and any attempt to describe it here,
and the character of its works, would be
superfiuous. The works turn out wagons,
buggies, carriages, etc, of every possible
variety. The Messrs. Studebaker make
more wagons, carriages, buggies and vehi-
cles of every description than any single
company in the world They manufacture
anything from the ightest track sulky to
to the finest landau, and from light spring
wagon to ten-mule team wagon. The
works are located at South Bend, Indiana,
and are one of the industrial triumphs of
the age. a grand total of its manufacture
is 100, 800 vehicles for the decade closing
with the end of 1877. Where vast capital
is thus invested rapidity of transaction is
necessity, and the consequence is that
goods are sold at lower rate of profit than
is possible by more limited concerns. At
the Sacramento depot may be seen and
procured any work in whole or duplicate
made at the great works in South Bend.
1t is the agency also for the genuine Sarven
patent wheel. 1t has extensive ware
rooms on Third street also. The agency
here has very large and constantly grow
ing interior trade The business of Stude-
baker Bros. is gigantic one, and of world
wide reputation. This has been at
tanned by the manufacture of wheels of
the highest worth and the result of mature
experience, the best mechanical intelli-
gence and industry, strict economy, hon.
esty and integrity, which form the very
soul OF commercial industrial character.
The agency keeps commercial travellers
constantly in the field, and their report up
to December 10Th is that there is unan-
imous sentiment throughout Nevada,
northern and interior California in favor of
trading with Sacramento as supply Gen.
ter. So universal is this that it has ex-
cited the surprise of the travelling agents
that it should so prevail in all communities,
and especially in some which heretofore
traded but little or none in this market.
