It tells of the great American public in relation to the fruit and produce trade and should be carefully scanned for its unstinted fairness: The general public ultimately furnishes the market for all perishable products just the same as it does for manufactured goods. In general commercial lines, possibly the most import- ant asset a manufacturer can have is the good will of the public. Once a universal prejudice obtains against a certain line of goods, a big obstacle must be overcome By the manufac- turer before he can hope to secure enough distribution to make his factory profitable, hence the value of keeping the good will of the general public The perishable fruit and produce distributing business of course cannot be considered as a manufacturing business, but the selling of these products must be done exactly as with-other commodities in general use. Fruits, and produce must be'con- sumed by the same public as the manufactured articles, and the methods of creating an increased demand are the same in either instance. Distributers of perishable fruits and produde hot only have to popularize the products handled but therer:is combatting the propaganda constantly appearing in the dail press that is calculated to pre|udteefche public f'nund againsl fruit and produce jobbers and commission men as a class. It ii up to the trade to defend itself against all unjust attacks, to eliminate from the trade all evil doers "and evil practices and thus create a different atmosphere. The^public should be made acquainted with the facts surrounding the'distribution-of peri- ishable foodstuff. There is nothing to hide and-the public will gladly receive the truth and pass just judgnient on th4 facts. The good will of the American public is the one thing:that should be most coveted by the fruit and produce trade. SECRET OF WANAMAKER'S SUCCESS "If there is one business on earth that a quitter should leave, alone, it is advertising.
