Generally the grower demands in his home town the same price he receives in the bigger markets, forgetting all about that transportation charges, commission and other expenses may reduce his actual returns in some instances as much as 50 per cent. . Our price to the merchant is based on the actual returns our goods bring in other markets, and we keep an eye on the.price a merchant sells for also ; adding to this the additional value in quality and being fresh from the Farms, we believe we have donex our part in giving the consumer his money’s worth.
