BUSINESS HOUSE MAKES
CHANGE OF METHODS
The Salmon River Trading Co.,
by their generous methods of credit
accommodations have accumulated
several thousand dollars of out
standing accounts, acoounts which
are not paid when the usual thirty
days terms have expired. These
accounts we must realize upon
within the next few days, not being
successful in this, the Company
must meet with severe financial
loss, which they hope and expact
their friends who have benefitted
from their generosity do not want
to see them do. This firm, as well
as all other business houses have
invested their money here, they
live here and spend their time and
money here, they are taking their
chances with you to make this camp
an established one, and the success
of this section depends upon coop
eration of ALL of its people, For
the successful continuance of busi
ness, this firm has decided to put
in force, beginning June 1st, TERMS
that are strictly cash on delivery.
Wholesale and Jobbing Companies
are inaugurating similar terms to
all retail dealers throughout the
country and they in turn are com
pelled to pass them along to their
customers, In our advertisement
of this issue we have more fully
outlined our future business policy.
