THE REASON WHY.

The Importance of industries and
factories employing labor and
skilled wOrkren can not be over
estimated as factors in the growth
of cities. ArdmOre considering
its population is particularly well
blessed in this regard and the
aggregate pay roll annually is an
important feature in our com
mercial business. The oil mills
compress. cotton gins, asphalt re-
fineries, ice factory and cold
storage plant, machine and boiler
works, bottling works, steam
laundry's planning mills, steam
press brick plant, stone quarries,
