That our system has appealed to you is evident, it has been getting the business for us, and at such a rate that among our competitors, you will find that one or two are ad vertising that after such a date, you must do business with them on a strictly cash basis. This proves our past assertions, beyond a question of doubt, that it “pays to pay cash.” Our entering the local field has resulted in materially reducing the price of all hays and grains. This you know to be a fact. We are pleased to note that Bandon is growing to value the “cash business.” Allow and encourage this feeling to grow until the whole town is estab* lished on a cash basis. Arriving at that stage of the game, you will still find us able to sell to you at the lowest prices—There is a reason. We are not price slashers, or cutters, but merely doing business on a FAIR margin of profit, and turning our money over many times.
