My prices are uniform as near as pos
sible. I don’t advertise specials to sell at
no profit. If I did, I would have to add the
cost to other goods.
I do not ask 50 per cent profit to other
goods to sell some at cost in order to make
the public believe that I am giving them bar
gains. The size of the package or can will
speak for itself.
