He came quietly and unostentatiously,

How Rice and Coffee Hold Down
the Price of Porterhouse!
RICE, coffee, canned fruits and vegetables, peanut butter and packaged fish
why does Armour sell these foods? Soaps, oils, drugs, banjo strings, curled
hair and fertilizer are logical for Armour to sell; for they are by-products
of the meat business. But why should Armour handle so many food lines
which have nothing to do with meats? '
THE answer, if you will but consider, is simple.
It is a question of sales costs.
When Armour buys livestock from producers, the
cost of its preparation for your use represents but
one stage in making it ready for you. Getting.it to
you is fully as important. And that represents an
other cost.
Selling Expense Reduced
WITH the expense of factoring meat products
reduced to the finest point that scientifically
designed machinery and skill can bring it, the prob
lem becomes one of getting these goods to you wit"
the absolute minimum of charge.
To do this,' Armour maintains some four hundred
Branch Houses in the more important population
centers, each in charge of a food expert and each
with a corps of salesmen. Over these Branch House
organizations, working much as a train dispatcher
might, is the Home Office sending supplies here to
day, there tomorrow, somewhere else the next day
keeping the supply equalized throughout the coun
try so there is no surplus or shortage no glut one
day, no prohibitive prices the next.
As a result, each salesman cannot be selling meat
to his full capacity every day. But his salary must
go on. And wire it not possible for him to profit
ably employ his surplus time, that portion of his
wage which represents unused time would have to
be added to the cost of your meat. For the number
of salesmen cannot be cut; there are times when the
full force is needed.
Hence, the fact that Armour does sell .these addi
tional food products, keeps down the cost of your
chops, steaks and roasts.
All Costs Kept Down
BUT the cost-reducing influence goes farther still.
Just as selling fruits and vegetables keeps down
the cost of meats, so does, selling the two together
keep down the cost of the fruits and vegetables. And,
thereby, Armour can sell the highest quality at or
dinary prices.
Moreover, because a test of one proves the quality
of all these products offered under a single mark
the famous Oval Label they sell almost automatic
ally for the dealer and permit him to hold his prices
down to fair figures.
Thus, when you insist upon Armour Oval Label
Products, you share in these economies and make
it possible to pay maximum prices to the producer
and still keep prices lower to the consumer.
