Visitors to this store are never urged to buy—we are always delighted to have visitors, for we find it pays. Many women come here regularly of an afternoon to see what they can see, and perhaps to meet friends who are pretty sure to be'at the Farmers’Co-op. The purchases of such visitors may be few and insignificant, but it is marvellous what effective advertisers they unconsciously become for the Farmers Co-op. They tell their friends of what they see here, show them the purchases they make, and that all helps to bring us new customers.

The doors of the Farmers Co-op. are open to all, and anyone can trade here and make ante of being well served.
