The Changing Times
The era of Chain Stores came about because a
group of men with Jarge capital could, by starting
stores iu different localities increase the outlet of
merchandise eniinatiug from one source.
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 productiou and
they buy direct from tjie 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 iu 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 tlmu prevail almost any
where iu Portland.
Coupled with this buying capacity, the activity
of the owners, the acquaintance with the locality be
cause of our long residence here ought to convince
any one that we can do business at less cost than the
average grocer'.
We always believed that "a word to the wise
was suficient."
