The Dallas daily herald. [volume] (Dallas, Tex.) 1873-1887, 1882-04-20
GROCERIES,.

SINCE the opening Of the spring business the
wholesale grocery houses of our city have not
experienced what might be termed really dull
day, Not only has all the trade which has been
coming here for years past been retained, but
new business is arriving almost daily, Should
this Increase continue during the year, several
the houses In Dallas will probab y aggregate
as large sales as will the heaviest firms In
any of the metropolitan cities of the west or
south. A comparison of prices here with tho G
Of either St Louis, hicago, Galveston or New
Orleans, shows cOnclusivelv that Dallas offers
advantages 10 the trade of all north Texas over
any of the cities above named. Business in this
line here Is, asu sual very heavy, and prices
steady ms shown by our reports, which have
been revised.
