Some of the farmers are figur-
ing on buying their goods by the
case or by the wagon load for
their own use, and thought to
save money by purchasing such
supplies from the Oliver Whole-
sale Grocery Company. This firm
does only wholesale business,
selling to merchants at such a
small profit that they can afford
to save their customers money
when they retail the goods to
their customers. They want the
trade of merchants only, but they
are doing much to cheapen goods
to the consumers.
