B, Ends, who brings\nto bear on it an experience acquired\nin such undertakings during the past\n\u202210 years. The Trustee is Harry V.\nSharp, Treasurer and Genera] Man\nager of The Wholesale Grocers'\nSales Company.\nThe Campaign is one that carries\nsale of all the merchandise involved\nthrough the familiar channels of distribution directly to the consumer,\non whom it brings to bear the direct\npressure of a popular contest for\nawards amounting in value to\n$50,000.\nPrimarily a sales campaign, the\nplan i.s elective of package products\nof the best quality, only one article\nin one line heing admitted, although\nmanufacturers of several allied products, if all represent the highest\nstandard of merit in their respective\nfields, can make separate contracts\nfor every specialty.\nThe terms of the contract with\nthe manufacturer predicate immediate inert ase in sale and distribution\nof the product. The Campaign admission charge, designed to cover all\ncosts involved in the Campaign proper, is $5,500, of which $500 is in cash\nand $5,000 is in the merchandise,\nvalued at the net price to jobber, to\nbe delivered f. o. b. Philadelphia,\nwith price protection guaranteed by\nthe manufacturer for a period of 30\ndays.\nThe 300 expert salesmen of the 21\nwholesale grocery houses composing\nthe Wholesale Grocers' Sales Company of Philadelphia, immediately\non receipt of the goods, sell them to\nthe retailers and then, over a period\nextending to the close of the year,\ncontinue to push an intensive sales\n'campaign on the product. This\nfeature represents exploitation of the\ntrade's regular distributive facilities\nin their most concentrated and most\nhighly developed sales capacity.\nMeanwhile, 3,500 leading retailers\nare being selected to act as agents\nof the Campaign with authority to\nnominate from 10 to 25 housewives\nas Contestants in the $50,000 Redemption Contest, although it will\nalways be possible for a woman, failing of nomination by one of appointed retailers to effect her own nomination and to start on even terms with\nthe regular contestants. The arrangement provides for a minimum\nof 35,000 contestants, with the probable number actually engaged verging on 100,000.\u2014Chamber of Commerce \"News Bulletin,\" September,\n1921.\nThe American Sugar Company\noperating in Cuba sustained a loss of\n$10,686,281 in 1920, as against a profit of $1:1,250.619 in 1919.

Since a baker uses\nabout three pounds of flour to five\nloaves of bread, it follows that for\nevry watch the maker uses the\nequivalent of almost a third of a\nloaf. The flour is made into dough,\nand the dough is used to handle the\nscrews, rivets and other small parts.\nThe watch maker has a lump of\ndough on hand and when he wishes\nto examine a serew he jabs the piece\nof dough on it. Then turning it\nover, he has a good chance to look\nat it with his watchmaker's microscopic eyeglass.\ndoii'\/h would often liven up a hatch\nthai v as 1..H, he started w >'h th\nchine' he has devi loped a new prin-\n, jpic ,1, the handling of bread dough,\n..... \u2022\u25a0 \u2022 - \u25a0.... . . * \u25a0 \"\".I the results he obtains under his\nlimited capacity are uniformly good.\nTins is what the bakers who attended his demonstration saw i A 2-\nproduee the aame recovery now ohm\npossible under a heat j pre fermeni\nprocess coupled with the overhcai\ni- snonge set.
