The Chain Store system is nothing more than any other store except the buying part is concentrat ed at one place. The buyers for these stores have their headquarters at the source of production and they buy direct from the packer or the producer. It goes without saying that a buyer who can buy the same sort of merchandise for several hundred stores can command a better price than a buyer for just one store. The secret of advantageous grocery prices in St. Johns is this ability to buy in connection with many other stores. That is why you have had established by this store better prices than prevail almost any where in Portland. Coupled with this buying capacity, the activity of the owners, the acquaintance with the locality be cause1 of our long residence here ought to convince any one that we can do business at less cost than the average grocery. We always believed that "a word to the wise was suficient." The Grabateria Cash and Carry Grocery SCALES & CURRIER, Inc.
