HOW TO MAKE MONEY, MAKING CANDY
Get a candy recipe book and practice making bonbons, fondant, fudge,
peanut brittle, etc., until you learn to make delicious candy. Make up
about ten dollars’ worth and visit some store with samples. Ask them to
put a box in their candy case and pay for it when they sell it. Have a
neat card printed as follows:
MADE IN MRS. BROWN’S KITCHEN
BY MRS. BROWN
RIGHT HERE IN BELLVILLE
IT IS FRESH AND DELICIOUS
TRY IT.
If your candy is good, people will buy it, and you will have no trouble
in getting all the stores to buy all you can make. One woman started on
this small scale and owns a large candy factory to-day.
