Armour and Company are more
than packers. They are food pur-
Ueyors. But, our participation in
grocery lines represents only 4.6
per cent of our total business.
Yet, wholesale grocery houses
whose representatives spread
these false reports are, themselves,
engaged in numerous side-lines
far removed from edible products.
A recent bill of goods which we
purchased from a wholesale gro
Ger, contained more than forty
items, not one of Which could
Be used for food except by
an ostrich.
Reports of our engaging, or in
tending to engage, in the retail
grocery business are, without ex-
ception, untrue. In the words of
Mr.. ]. Ogden Armour, We have
no intention of adding the woes Of
retailing to the burdens Of manu-
featuring and distributing"

of all kinds that we can select and

Luna County Fair

The committee on county fair,
appointed by the executive committee
of the farm bureau, met with the
chamber of commerce on Monday of
this week to learn if the chamber of
commerce would cooperate in putting
over a successful fair this fall. The
chamber of commerce is very much
interested in this project and will at
once appoint a committee to cooper
ate in working out the details at once.
The members present at this meeting
thought that the merchants would
gladly contribute prizes in both cash
and merchandise.
As the plans are developed. they
will be made known through these
columns.
Spent money is gone. Saved mon
ey is ready at your call. Invested
money, if put in war saving stamps,
is working for you day and night.

Another advantage in favor of the
kaffir. Mr., Anderson thinks, is that il
produces about as much grain as the
milo and n great deal more forage.
1t can be grown with about one irri-
cation more than what the milo re-
quires. The black hull white kafiir
was grown very successfully by Mr..
Berwick Of Hondale last season, and
this is the kind that will be grown by
Mr. Anderson this season.

Worth $500 TO This Grower
In score of lines the same system
is being followed. Take. for illustra-
ton, the case Of grower Of hot
house lettuce in the neighborhood Of
one Of the large eastern cities. Ordi-
narily he grows to meet fairly late
market, after the Florida and South
Carolina markets are off. But II he
receives news of destructive freeze
in the South. he promptly regulates
his seed beds and moisture in such
way as materially to advance the ma
turity of his crop to take advantage
of the shortage soon to occur. One
such grower Of dollhouse lettuce says
that the government crop and market
reporting service is worth $500 year
to him in that way.
Here is another concrete illustra-
ticn: During the past season there
was a short crop Of potatoes in Vir-
ginia and Maryland. The crop and
market reporting service informed
potato growers over the country of
that fact in time for them to take
advantage Of it. As a result, some
southern growers held their potatoes
for few weeks, while some northern
growers dug and marketed theirs
little earlier than usual, thus not only
obtaining better prices, but filling in
n period when there would have been
otherwise a shortage Of new potatoes.
Shows Market Advantages
The service indicates, to the grower
who uses it intelligently, temporary
and local market advantages. A city

CERTAIN jobbing statesmen are circulating
- reports to the effect that Armour and Company
control certain retail grocery stores or plan
ming to enter into the retail grocery business
Deming graphic. (Deming, N.M.) 1903-1948, 1919-03-18

These reports are utterly
and absolutely false. We de-
sire to brand them as such once
and for all. Armour and Com
pany do not control any retail
grocery stores wholly or in
part. Neither have we any affili-
alton or connection in any way
whatsoever with any owners OF
any retail grocery stores. Armour
and Company heUe no inten-
fion of engaging in the retail
grocery business.
Armour and Company distri-
butte and sell very limited num-
Der of food lines not directly pro-
duced from livestock. This is only
the result of natural evolution.
Our system of distribution and
marketing must be maintained
with the greatest possible eff
cheney. 1t is necessary, for reasons
OF economy, that Il handle az great
avolume at all seasons as possible.
This same distributive system
enables US to carry staple foods to
the people Of this country with
greater efficiency and at q cost
that is low commensurate with
the service. II our facilities are
such that we have been able to
serve the public more economic
-eally and efficiently than our COM
petitors, then il is the retailer and
consumer who benefit.
