My competitors are advertising that the meat trust is “busted,” | and are selling meat at their own | prices now. According to that the meat trust must have been a failure. I I never belonged to any meat trust, and therefore their actions don’t effect me any. I am still doing • business at the old stand, and am selling meat at the lowest prices, at what first class meat can be sold at. lam not advertising any two I for five meats, my motto always was “Give value received”, which I will continue to do and I invite the public to come and be con- j vinced.
