KELLOGG AND THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL

W. K. Kellogg, the breakfast food
manufacturer, and Attorney General
NVickersham are having little diff
hculty over the package products OF
the Kellogg company. The action OF
the attorney general has caused
wholesale and retail grocery dealers
alike to sit up and take notice. The
matter involved is the right of man
ufacturer to set the price at which
his product shall be sold in order to
protect the small dealers. The prod
ucts of the Kellogg company, in order
to get them to the people absolutely
fresh, are put up in patented carton
and sold on the same basis to jobber
and retailer. The company is an in
dependent concern and from all ap-
pearances wants to do the fair thing.
The matter is attracting widespread
attention and will be watched closely
as the attitude of the prosecutor
seems to have more or less to do
witk common property rights.
Mr.. Kellogg when interviewed re-
Gently concerning the case said:
All / care to say now" said Mr..
Kellogg, lis that the whole matter is
complete surprise to us. We adopt
ed our policy with very honest de-
sire not only to conform to the letter
of the law, but to its spirit, and the
things we aimed to accomplish by our
selling plan are the very things for
which we understood the Sherman
and other conspiracy laws were de-
signed-the protection of the con-
sumner and small dealer in the same
equality of opportunity enjoyed by
trusts and big buyers. If these
things are contrary to law. we shall
be much surprised
I'VE are surprised to find ourselves
charged with exacting contracts from
jobbers in the grocery trade. because
we have no contracts with the trade
whatever and will have no trouble in
proving it.
"Our whole aim has been to keep
our goods moving and TO place them
in the hands of as many grocers as
possible by making them profitable

WHAT PARCEL POST MEANS
TO THE RETAIL MERCHANT

The operation of the parcel post
for the first week entirely eclipsed
the most conservative estimates of its
promoters. The sum total of pack
ages handled in fifty of the largest
cities of the country amounted in
round figures to 100000. These
were of all imaginable sizes and
shapes and the photographers have
been having fun with the postal clerk
delivery system. One punster of a
metropolitan daily expressed himself
as being in doubt as to whether the
carrier was driving a mail delivery
wagon or a dray. However, the sys-
TEN has met popular approval as is
demonstrated by the large amount of
business handled the first week of its
inception and will have a more or less
greater influence on the competition
the retail merchant. For years the
mail order houses have gone on with
their plugging, untiring advertising
campaign for business by mail and the
small merchant must eventually give
the same kind or service If he is to
retain his trade. These corporations
spend millions of dollars in their adj
vertising because they have found it
pays. Advertising in generalities as
do many merchants in the smaller
towns is a waste of time and money.
Advertising is only another word for
craftsmanship and while the personal
salesman talks to only one customer,
advertisement will talk to better adj
vantage to a possible three readers
of every paper in which it is printed.
The verbal sales-talk is spent with the
speakers voice while printed adver-
tisement is on the spot to be consult
ed, talked about and for reference to
the prices given. Unfortunately the
small merchant thinks he is at dis
advantage with the large merchant
regarding prices. In some respects
this is true, as large purchases tend
to lower the cost of commodities.
But we have known instances right
in this village of people going to
Flint TO buy dress goods and other
articles which were on sale right at
their very door but which through
lack of advertising were unknown to
them. We are not presuming to tell
any merchant how he should run his
business. However. we do think we
can be of some assistance to any adj
Nvertiser who looks upon advertising
as an expense or as toll 10 Caesar
just to help the home paper along
This is decidedly the wrong aspect
Business is business and unless there
is some return for it, no good bust
ness man is going to spend his money
for sentiment We appreciate the sup
port of the local merchants and .rea-
lize the loyal support given the paper
in the past. The newspaper game is
the same as any other business and
its aim should be to give service for
value received This is to be the
policy of the paper hereafter and it
shall be our purpose to give this SER
vice in the many different ways in
which local paper is called upon to
be of help to the community.
