We've just hewed onoth$r loir sized chip
The Great ATLANTIC & PACIFIC Tea Co.
We've just hewed another fair sized chip off the old
block that stands between the farmer and you. We
mean thh expense of bringing food from the men who
grow it to the women who cook it.
Lost year, oftor buying food in the best producing
sections, it cost us $35.51 a ton to get it to you — on
expense which, of course, went into the price you poid.
Bet this year, by dint of hard work, we've succeeded
in chipping the old expense block down to $32.66—a
saving to customers of almost $3 or every ton of food
we sell.
This is a saving to American housewives of about
$300,000 every week of the year.
By keeping the difference between what the former
receives for food and what you pay for it as small as
possible/we con sell food of the highest quality at very
low prices.
