TOPEKA IS GROWING INTO A
LARGER COMMERCIAL AND
MANUFACTURING CENTER
AS Residence City She Has Had Wide publicity Yet Topeka
Is the Most Centrally Located Manufacturing and
Commercial Center In the Southwest.

Although it has been said that To-
pekS is primarily a residence city,
the annual output of her. industries
for the past several years has had an
aggregate value of twenty-five mil
lion dollars. The total capital repre-
scented by the various industries of
Topeka, including the Santa Fe
shops is twelve million dollars ex-
GLIDING the Santa Fe shops is ten
million dollars. The total number of
men employed by manufacturing
concerns including the Santa Fe shops
is eleven thousand, excluding the
Santa Fe shops is seven thousand.
Topeka is the manufacturing center
of the middle west for flour, is the
home of the largest creamery in the
world, manufactures one of the best
makes of, automobiles and holds her
own in the manufacture of meat
products, preserves, drugs chemicals,
tents furniture and the like. She

products and the best eye lenses that
can be produced.
The enthusiasm of Topeka people
in praising her as residence city has
left in the back ground her adj
vantages as a manufacturing and
! commercial center.
What has Topeka to offer a manu-
facturer locating here?
Topeka is the center of the. most
productive section of the United

dustry. 1t is the logical thing to do
because Topeka products are the best
and the cheapest. So large a num-
Der of articles are made in Topeka
that it is impossible to always bear
in mind what they all are. For ex-
ical Co.. manufactures over 200 diff
ferent articles.
One of the oldest factories in To-
peka was established forty years ago.
This was small shop on Jackson
street where carriages and wagons
were made. It is now the we'll known
carriage factory of e. G. Kinley.
A factory of no small dimensions is
located in Topeka, which perhaps
many Topeka people are. not aware
of. The city waterworks is too big
competition for a very large sale of
windmills in the city. However, one
of the largest and most progressive
factories Of its kind is the Currie
Windmill Co.. located here.
Remarkable activity is being shown
on Kansas avenue in the building of
business blocks. The Thompson-Han
building at 9Th and Kansas avenue,
building on Seventh street near Kan
sas avenue, which will cost $4,000,
and the Frost building at us Kansas
avenue, which will cost $4,000 are
now we'll started. The Parkhurst-
Davis building at First and Kansas
avenue, the Mills building at 10th and
Kansas avenue, and the interior re-
modelling of, the Central National
bank building will all be completed
before the year is out and will make
a great change in the appearance of
the avenue.

boundaries of this great country. To-

ever been produced-natural. gas
She has favorable freight rates and
It is no wonder that Topeka's fac
tories are the most prosperous Of
their kind that can be found.
Yes. Topeka is a beautiful resi-
dence city, but that IS only telling
half of it. Topeka is also a growing
commercial center
One factory per month for the past
three months has been Topeka's rec
ord in adding new enterprises. In
March the Overalls factory located
here. In April the Road Supply and
Metal Co. opened for business, and in
May the Standard Remedy Co. was

founded prediction of their success to
be possible are all exceeding the
hopes of their promoters.
Topeka made butter, manufacture
ed by one of Topeka'S largest factor
les, is sold all over the United States.
The interesting thing about it is that
in Topeka only it is sold under the
name of Primrose butter, while in all
other localities it goes by the name of
Meadow Gold Primrose was the
name first given to this butter and
when it was decided to change it to
Meadow Gold, the name Primrose
had become so established here,
where it was first sold, that a change
seemed impossible.
