In the Interest of the Fanner.
Does mass purchasing and distri
buting of foods work to the advant
age of the producers of the nation?
Recent statistics indicate that the
farmer reaps a rich harvest when
large-scale methods are applied to
merchandising.
A survey of 12,500 chain grocery
stores—representing 25 per cent of
the entire industry—shows that
fruit and vegetable sales came to
15.81 per cent of total sales in

____
grocery and combination
chain
stores, it means that fruit and vege
table sales through the chains aggre-
gated almost 6350,000,000.
And this does not take into ac
count the sales of the Independent
stores which have banded together
in large buying groups, and which
operate largely on the chain-store
principle. These stores, as well as
the chains, have made noteworthy
success in "pushing" the products
of the farm.
Big merchandising systems, chain
or independent, are extremely pro
gressive in developing better sales
and display methods. They aren’t
satisfied to simply let products sit
on shelves where the customer may
find them if he looks hard enough
—they bring them out where they
cannot help but meet the ranging
eye of the buyer. To keep the cus
tomer informed on what to buy, they
make wide use of newspaper adver
tising—the best of all mediums for
stimulating sales.
The result is lower prices to the
consumer—and a wider, more stable
and more profitable market for the
producer._____ ____
