TEXTThe great industry of Orange is the manufacture of hats, in which a number of thorough-going business men, a large capital, and a great number of hands are employed, the general line of production comprising soft hats, although there are several establishments which make a specialty of both soft and stiff hats, as, for instance, that of the firm of McChesney & Co., the co-partners being Mr. Oscar McChesney and Mr. W. F. Stocker, whose years of observation and experience have made them perfect as hat manufacturers and successful aS business men. They manufacture all kinds and grades of stiff and soft fur hats in all the leading and desirable styles suitable for all the markets of the country, which are always in demand, owing to their excellent quality and fine finish. The firm have ample facilities and conveniences in their wellappointed and systematically arranged factory, and produce work that is equal to, if not superior, to any made in the country. Mr. Oscar McChesney is of Essex County, where the name is well known in the hat-manufacturing industry. He is one of the prominent, public-spirited citizens of Orange, and enjoys the regard and consideration of all classes of the population in this section of the State. Mr. W. F.
