ducts. is playing an important part in
the life of Charles Town and the sur
rounding territory
This concern. owned by Gordon r.
and Eugene Bready. operates its big
bakery at Harper's Ferry. and sends
its products fresh into all the sur
rounding country. It's prices are
the same as those paid for ordinary
bakery products everywhere, but this
concern brides itself on manufactur-
ing its products a little better than
its competitors.
Every ingredient which goes into
this bakery's bread or pastries is
guaranteed to measure up to the
highest standard Of purity. The con-
Germ invites the public to inspect its
bakery at any or all times, and IL
challenges any one to produce a loaf
of bread or pound Of cake any,
where that more closely combines
nigh quality products with low con-
sumner prices than does the Jefferson
Baking Co.
The Messrs Bready are Jealous of
the good reputation they have built
up for their products, and are always
eager for suggestions as to how they
may improve their service and the
quality of the things they manufac-
ture. Their bakery is the most mod
ern that can be established. their
machinery is in line with the very
latest thought; they employ experts
in the business and guarantee that
every possible sanitary measure has
been adopted to keep their products
pure. Their plant represents an in
vestment of around $4,000 in new
modern machinery. They are the
only bakery in this section using alb
solutely pure spring water, which is
filtered.
This business has grown because
of its appeal to the public for pat
ronage purely on the basis of auali-
ty and service at low cost. and the
owners of the business are looking
forward to a steady growth in de-
mand for their products. They ex-
peet to expand their business to
meet all demands of growth. They
are at present employing IL well
paid EMPLOYEES. This paw roll is
spent in Jefferson County and con-
tributes to the growth of the county.
These gentlemen are well known
