Messrs. Cobb and Wright organized
the firm Of J. S. Cobb a. Co, in 1891,
and began business in a small wooden
building. Their business outgrew
these quarters the first year and their
second season found them in a larger
and more commodious building, but
even this became too small, and during
last year they erected tnefr present
splendid brick factory, which is 45x150
feet and four stories high, containing
twenty-seyen thousand square feet OF
space, with an annual capacity of over
one million pounds of leaf.
Messrs. Cobb & Co, are among the
leading leaf dealers, not only in Green's
boro, but in the State. They buy on or
der and contract for a number of the
largest manufacturers in the South
and West, and their orders from these
big concerns are the best evidences Of
their successful management of the
leaf business.
IL is the present purpose Of these
gentlemen during the present summer
to equip their factory with a complete
outfit for stemming, re-drying and re-
ordering the leaf for direct shipments.

son to be fully prepared to make strips
