are 6 progressive and well managed institutions-the Citizens' State Bank, Farmers' State Bank, First National Bank, First State Savings Bank, Peo- ple's National Bank and Union State Bank. The various forms of organiza- tion represented by these banks make their operations cover a wide scope and meet every demand of the people of the city and its neighborhood in re- spect of banking and financial con- veniences, and every bank in the city has a record of soundness, safety and conservatism which commend them to the highest favor of ' the financial world. There is nothing of greater im- portance to any city than the posses- sion of adequate facilities for the en- tertainment of permanent guests and transient visitors in an efficient man- ner. A popular house of high-class is the Comstock Hotel, adequately equipped with all of the modern con- veniences and a deserved favorite with the traveling public. Among the more prominent industrial enterprises are brick and tile works, cigar fac- tories, F. L. Williamson & Co.'s flour


mill and electric light plant, the Clay Center Bottling Works, the Clay Cen- ter Steam Broom Works of Hartman Bros .. grain elevators, carriage and wagon works, the Star Steam Laun- dry, foundries and machine shops, in- cubator factory, vinegar factory, plan- ing mill, bee supply factory, etc. The two grenhouses here enjoy a constant- ly increasing patronage and ship large- ly to all parts of the state. The press is represented by 2 daily newspapers, the Dispatch and Republican and 2 weeklies, the Dispatch and Times. These newspapers are ably edited and conducted, are ever alive to the city's welfare and lose no opportunity to ad- vance its interests in every legitimate way within their province. Clay Cen- ter is suported by a rich agricultura! and stock raising section and here are openings for investment where energy and enterprise wil prove the talis- manic keys to fortune. To this fair and progressive city a hospitable peo- ple invite the industrious from every -- where. Tel., W. U. Exp., Pacific and - U. S. Harry C. Achenbach, postmaster.
