CHECKAsAW IR9N.W9RKs
The Oldest, the Largest, the Best.
Equipped Institution of The Kind
in the South.

For seventeen years, during good and bad
times alike, the machinery in these works
has been kept going. As dem anus for work
increased, the facilities of the place were
enlarged. As new machinery was proved
successful, it was added. Mr.. handle, the
veteran iron-worker of the city, has always
endeavored TO keep up with the times in sup
plying his works with everything likely to
be needed in filling orders. He has pushed
his trade to points where less enterprising
men would Heyer have thought Of making
an effort. he has sold cotton presseS, horse
powers, engines, Jail cells, WE'LL orers and
other machinery all ever the South, and il
most likely to increase these sale=, for it ia
well known that all work sent out by the
Chickassw foundry is of the most solid and
durable character. In special orders for
iron-gork for buildings no foundry in the
South can su.psss tie Chickasaw, whose
workmen are of the most competent glass. Re-
pairing of machinery is done by men of
great experience and mechanical skill In
fact, every department is run by frst-class
workmen, and 4r. Handle is the most ex-
periepced map ~ the iron business is the
city. Besides the products OF the works, at
the Chickasaw can always be bad a large
assortment of machinists supplies, which sre
sold as nearly as cheap as at Eastern facto-
ries. All persons wanting machinery or
estip stes for oundry work should send to
the Chiskasaw iron Works for their illus
trated catalogue, which giEes crest many
facts that cannot be presented in a brief
newspaper article. No institution in the
city deserves better of the people of the
South, for 40 person has done more for the
manufacturing interests in this section.
