I have an old extract bottle made by Santa Fe Foods in Arkansas City. There is no zip code. Does anyone know old history of Ark city?
You might try inquiring of Bill Bottorff at
bbott@ausbcomp.com
He and his wife have an extensive array of Cowley County history articles at the Austin Business Computers web site at http://www.ausbcomp.com/
She has transcribed a number of old Arkansas City newspapers and might have come across the company when preparing the articles for their web site.
Not sure how Cowley County is connected to a company in Austin, Texas, unless there might be a subsidiary in Cowley County.
