The Box Factory not only promises
o be a source Of profit to the stock
holders, but TO the railroad companies
IS well. The patronage of this indus
.rv is not confined to Memphis and /
New Orleans, with which places they i
have direct connection by rail, but
their arms have been extended way
over in Georgia. AS an evidence Of
this we mention that last Saturday a
car load consisting of 5000 cracker
boxes was shipped TO al Atlanta firm.
Wherever the samples are shown they
are pronounced among the best, and
no trouble is found in securing orders.

The Rosedale Il Mississippi Central
Valley railway from here to the fertile
lands ON the Bogue Phalia will be com

benefit to Rosedale, to which i VII

belonging to any other railway system
but being solely controlled by the clll,
zeus of Rosedale. 1t will run SIX an0
