Fruit and Vegetable
Season
FRESH FRUIT and VEGETABLES is the hardest
kind of goods to handle in Alaska at a profit and special
care and knowledge of how to select and pack goods is a
life study. As each year is added to our experience we dis- !
cover former defects in handling this line of goods and this |
year we are better prepared than ever before to supply the
northern trade.
All orders intrusted to me will have my personal at- 1
tention. YOURS TRULY,
John Kalem, the Grocer
Sole Agent for Reliance Canned Goods
