BULK GOODS
VS.. PACKAGE

Yes, bulk goods are coming
back and while they never will
be back to where they were
many years ago, you can now
buy a great many staple gro
ceries at quite a saving in cost.
The writer has been selling
groceries for over twenty years
and has watched the passing of
the cracker barrel, the row of
molasses and syrup barrels, the
stack of tin coffee bins and the
highly decorated tin cans.
Manufacturers of food pro-
ducts, to reap the greatest BEN
eft from their advertising, be-
gan putting their goods up in
fancy packages and tins. This
pleased the retailer as great
deal Of labor is saved in having
a package ready to hand over
the counter instead of weigh
ing, sacking and tieing. The or.
iginal package was gradually re-
placed by fancy, expensive lith-
ographed cartons and tins. Adj
vertising was materially in
creased. All this extra expense
was passed along to the con-
sumner. Did you ever stop to
think that it actually costs 10c
to pack one pound Of coffee in
a tin can for you to throw away?
Also that you pay 1Oc for z or.
of macaroni when you buy it in
a package. Other items are in
the same proportion. You must
pay the advertising bill, the cost
of the package, the case to pack
it in. extra freight, etc. All this
was fine while times were brisk
and money plentiful. The con-
sumner could and did pay the bill.
Price & Lincoln, along with
other dealers, see the advantage
of buying certain lines of food
stuffs in original factory bar
rels and cases. We want to help
you live more economically.
Our line of bulk goods will
save you from to 20 to so per
cent over similar goods in fancy
packages. Glance over our gro
Gerry ad. Note the number of
things carried in bulk and COM
pare the prices with those Of
the package goods.
Take for example, bulk cocoa.
Perhaps no line of merchandise
carried offers the consumer a
greater opportunity to save
money. AS you well know all
the popular brands of cocoa are
extensively advertised in the
leading magazines. This cost
is heavy. The cost Of the fancy
little tins is no small item and
SO it goes until you are obliged
to pay 28c for a LIB. can of
cocoa. High grade bulk cocoa
can be retailed for about one
third this price and still pay q
good profit to the retailer. That
the buying public appreciates
this is borne out by the fact
that we sold 240-lb. barrel of
cocoa in 80 days. This is equiv
alent to 48O half-pound pack
ages or enough package cocoa to
last the ordinary grocery store
for term of years.

SMOKED MEAT

A tired fellow leaned up
against the counter one evening
last week and asked for a piece
of bacon back. While / was
wrapping it up he said: "You
sell lots of meat, don't your
well, yes" l answered, about
400 pounds a week" Well, no
wonder" he said, "you sell it
right. This is the best place in
town to buy smoked meat"
Thanks, mister, that sounds
good.

From an analysis of the men
listed in "Who's Who in Amer

presented: Without an educa-

are one in 10000. With ele-

are increased to four; with high
school education to eighty-seven
and with college education, to
eight hundred.

weeks ago, walked out Of his room yes

the authorities and his friends knew
he was ready to go home they were not
ready for an unannounced departure.
Herbert is due at his home in Hart

stopping with friends in this city. ac-
cording to a despatch from Hartford.
1t was an open secret that Herbert
had been preparing to get back into
the outside world as soon as possible,
and his friends consider his sudden
departure practical joke of his to
impress them he was "all right" That
has been his claim ever since the yoke
was taken from his neck.
The famous plaster cast In which
Herbert had been encased went with
him as constant reminder for him
of some Of the most satisfying-as
well as the most bitter-days he ever
lived through. To him it is the SYM
boil of the broken neck which nearly
cost him his life. but at the same

by him in his most trying hours.

but set an American League record
for the greatest number of total bases
in one inning, and equaled feat
that has been achieved only twice in
the National League and after a lapse
Of eighteen years.
The American League mark that
williams excelled was set by his
teammate. George Sisler. on June 3,
1919, when he made a homer and a
double in one inning.
Mogridge started against Wright
and for four innings gave him a bat
tie, but George suddenly lost all his
stun and was knocked galley west,
while Erickson, who succeeded him.
was given a dose of the same medi-
cine. Wright, in the meantime. Just
hurled steady. heady ball, and tho
Griffs were lucky to score on him.
Judge got no farther than second
in the opener, when he walked with
two down, and Goslin scratched an in
field hit and Brewer WAS forced by
Shanks after he singled in the fourth:
but round five produced a tally for
the Griffs. Peck started with a sim
gle to center. stole second and reach
ed third on Picinich's sacrifice. Mog-
ridge then was called out on strikes
but Rice beat out a rap to McManus
over second to score Peck.
Browns Start In Fifth.
After a mix UP in the batting order
had nullifed a walk and an infield hit
for the Browns in tho opener they
staged a threat in the third when q
pass and scratchy hits by Austin and
Tobin loaded the bases Mogrfdge got
out of this when Goslin caught Nc
Manus' fly in deep left
The NTH inning saw Mogridge
mulcted for a pair Of tallies. With
Austin gone, Wright doubled to left
center, moved up on a pass to Gerber
and scored on Tobin's line single to
right. Gerber took third on the blow
and counted on Sisters long ny to
Goslin.
The Grinmen had a fine opening in
