only the largest in the south, but in fact is the only genuine stove foundry in this section of the country. lt is operated at
 its fullest capacity, but still it is unable 10 supply the demand. There is cause
 for this !: The stoves are the best now in the market They are made of the best
 material and are sold at rates surprisingly cheap. H. Wetter & Co.,, the great stove and tin house of Memphis, handle the
 entire product of this foundry. In fact.
 Wetter & Co. are the principal owners of the works. This great manufacturing concern-Wetter & Co.-empIoy nearly six hundred men. They manufacture everything, it seems, that can be made of iron or tin. The tin department is of itself marvel. The most improved machinery is employed, and none but tue best workmen are engaged. Their ship ments are the heaviest of any similar es tabiishment in the south. Their trade extends all over the country, and is really not confined to one section of the country This speaks we'll for Memphis It is one of the city's many features that illustrate the greatness of the town. It stands as refutation to the often repeated assertion
 R$AtS4 ihoHNAObSlJ uCulputS could not rise above calamity which was once visited upon her. That caIam- ity is past It will never come again. Surrounding cities expected to absorb Memphis, but there has been a disap- pointment. The noble city arose and claimed her own, and her own came back to her. H. Wetter & Co. are among the men who reclaimed Memphis who will make her the empire city of the south. Among those who travel for this firm are some of the best known men who have ever gone out on the commercial road. These are the names of the prin- cipal ones: Harry Thompson, business manager; w. C, McGee, Texas; ] E Ryley, Mississippi and A:kaasa~ Hayd Shanks North Carolina and South Caro-. lima; Colonel Rudisill, Tennessee; C. C Huntington, Arkansaw, and Captain Bryan, Louisiana and Alabama.
