Qur profit on a bale of binder twine doesn't amount to much in fact, it is probably eonsider- abl smaller than any other merchant would accept on any sale of equal volume.

Of course, there are some brands of twine on which we'd make more money than do on McCormick hut our ultimate gain wouldn't be as much. we don't make much profit oil a of McCormick Uvine although it sells for just a trifle more than some other twines. But we do gain considerably by supplying our customers with this reliable high-quality product because of the greater satisfaction it gives the user. It means a good deal to us to have your good will. That's why we prefer to sell you good binders and good twine to go with them, because no binder will work satisfactorily with inferior, poorly spun twine.

You are safeguarded against length shortages, poor tying and breakage, when you use McCormick Twine Guaranteed for weight, strength and length. ROMIG WILKINSON Hardware Implements DEATH.
