LIST OF TRANSFERS
Penny
Change
Hereafter in our Meat
Market we will use the
Penny Change System,
whereby you pay for exact
ly what you Ret, no more,
no less. For example, if a
piece of meat comes to 37
or 38 cents when placed on
our Penny Springless To
ledo Scale, you will not be
asked to pay 40 cents,
which is the old way and
has cost the public thou
sands of dollars; but we
will charge exactly what
the meat amounts to in
pennies.
