A QUESTION OF BAIT— Some very amusing statements are heard over the radio now and I
then as well as observed in the advertising of some of our so-called Independent Grocery Dealer
friends. In these statehents and advertising it is claimed that Chain stores use “bait” to get cus
tomers in their stores. It is not likely that chain store operators will deny they make special prices
on certain items of merchandise from time to time.
A KIND REQUEST— We kindly ask you as a reader of this little message to look over
the advertising and on the windows of the stores of many so-called Independent Grocery men, as well
as note their newspaper and other advertising. W e ask, do they not make special prices ? I am sure
you will agree that they do make special prices just the same as do chain stores. If the said special
prices are “bait” when made by a chain store, are they not nslo “bait” when used by an Independent
store?
ROBERT C. MOORE STORE PURPOSES- It is and always has been our pro- !
gram in merchandising to make special prices on merchandise at certain times. No advance is tak
en on any item in the store to offset the concession made. We have found this to meet with the ap
proval of our trade and also in line with the trend of modern merchandising. Thank you.
Note a few very low' prices for this Friday and Saturday as well as a few regular prices.

THE O N ILL CREAMERY
will be open for business
Saturday, June 28th
This will not be the grand opening that we have been plan
ning, but in order to have some Butter and Buttermilk on hand
to show the people what we are going to do, w?e believe that it will
be advisable for us to buy a little Cream and have these products
on hand to show you on the following Saturday when we open
officially.
• * \
You can call up your cream buyer when you read this no
tice and find out just what he is paying for cream and if the price
is the same as it is today, you will find that they are now paying »
you 28 Cents per pound Butterfat. We are going to open with a
price that will be satisfactory to most everyone ir 4 he neighbor
hood. OUR PRICE FOR SATURDAY WILL BE
31 Cents per pou ’
Now all we ask of the people is their patronage. We under
stand that several of our competitors will follow this price but
why is it that they have not come out and offered you the Minne
sota price to begin with instead of waiting until they are forced to
it. We also feel as though the different companies will give their
men instructions to give us the toughest kind of competition. This
we expect, but if the people and producers will give us a fair share
of the business and a little good will and patience, I w ill promise i
them that they will have as good a market here for their cream
as they can get anywhere in this or any other state. But in order
to keep this price where it belongs, I will have to depend on the
volume.
In order to get volume and keep the Butterfat in O’Neill
and in our Creamery, I am making you the best price that it is
possible to make now. If the Cream Producers appreciate this
price they can show their good will by giving us a chance to show
them just what we can do.
The O’Neill Creamery will officially take over the milk
route, which has been operating under the name of the Sanitary
or Hull’s Dairy on the first day of July. I would appreciate it
very much if the folks in town would phone in their orders fbr
Milk, Cream and Butter to take effect on July first, so that we will
be able to have Milk, Cream and Butter enough on hand to supply
your wants. You know that every bottle of milk or cream that
is sold from this place is guaranteed. Orders have been coming, ..
in fine since our announcement last week and we are expecting
to double the Milk and Cream output at least double by the first
of August. You know' of course that we recommend Pasteurized
Milk, but you may have the raw Milk or Cream if you wish. Our
Phone number is 84—we will appreciate a call from those who
need our products.
