New Cigar Factory at Nekoosa
The Wood County Times
October 16, 1913, Page 1
Nekoosa, Wood Co., Wisconsin

Evidences of Nekoosa enterprise, push and prosperity continue to increase. Among the more recent may be mentioned the cigar manufactory of F. X. GRODE. Mr. GRODE is not a novice at this business, as previous to dispensing of his barbershop and becoming a knight of the grip, something more than a year ago, he was quite extensively engaged in this line.

He has fitted up the rooms in the north end of his barber shop, put in new fixtures and all necessary tools and appliances and has resumed the manufacture of cigars. He has engaged the services of Joe ARNOLD, than whom there is no better cigar maker. As there are many details to look after in the beginning of any new business, Mr. GRODE had not, when we last saw him, fully determined what brands he will place on the market, but they will be the very best, high grade cigars that experience, skill and the best grades of tobacco can produce. The Times wishes him a bushel and three pecks of success.
