Instead of being the bar tering and trafficing point for the pro- ducts below here il is now a great whole sale point and goods are sold in bulk to the merchants from here to the Florida line and beyond. who find here thoroughly stocked warehouses and com plete lines of goods in every department of trade What were formerly retail dry goods. grocery and drug stores nave added wholesale departments and m eX- tension of business all along the line.
