WHY should you ask for them and refuse any other kind? 1


W HEN a reader of Prairie Farmer goes into a store to buy, he is assured of getting full value for his money if he insists on buying only well known advertised goods and refusing to buy any unknown brand substitute.


WHY? Because advertised goods are well known goods that are backed up with the guar- antee of PRAIRIE FARMER and the manufacturer. If the goods are not as represented in the advertising, or do not give full satisfaction, this TRIPLE GUARANTEE means that you have only to make your complaint and that any just claim will be fairly considered and your money paid back in case the goods are not as represented. This is PRAIRIE FARMER'S FAIR PLAY POLICY with its readers. We back up every advertisement in PRAIRIE FARMER and guarantee honest treatment. No humbugs, swindles or cheap substitute goods (that are made to sell and get the customer's money on false pre- tenses) are advertised in PRAIRIE FARMER. Buy the goods advertised in PRAIRIE FARMER and in this Directory and you are taking no chances. You are guar- anteed satisfaction because all goods we advertise are 1149

A SELLING HINT


When a customer comes into your store and does not ask for the article wanted by brand name, it is a good thing to ask, "What brand did you buy last?" or "What has given you the best " satisfaction in the past?" No article has ever been made that suits everybody. What you are sold on may not please your customer. Even if you do not carry the brand that has given your customer satisfaction in the past, you are better able to please your customer by having a standard to go by. Further, by getting the customer's ideas, you carry the thought that your aim is your customer's satisfaction. Such an atmosphere breeds re- peat orders.
