General Information 



Fair dealing with all our patrons requires that we make no excep- 

 tions to such rules of commercial policy as are necessary for the proper 

 conduct of our business relations with the veterinary profession of the 

 country. Should any favoritism be shown to a single patron, even that 

 patron might suspect that still greater advantages were being accorded 

 to others; hence we believe that square business dealing requires that 

 we adhere strictly to our published terms, 



PRICES 



All prices quoted herein are net, and are submitted as ruling on this 

 date, but are without offer and are subject to change, as market condi- 

 tions may require, without notice. 



Since the policy governing our sales is to deal directly with members 

 of the Veterinary Profession, without the intervention of middlemen, there 

 is no necessity for our publishing fictitious "list prices" with a varying 

 scale of discounts. 



Prices quoted on all items are the lowest net prices at which prod- 

 ucts of the quality we offer can legitimately be sold; for in every instance, 

 the quality of the product is given first consideration. Our selling prices 

 always are based on cost of production, and necessarily change with the 

 market prices of ingredients: our prices, not our formulas, change with 

 the market. 



TERMS 



From the net prices quoted herein, we allow a discount of 2 per cent 

 for cash with order, or for payment within 10 days from date of invoice, 

 unless otherwise specified upon the invoice. All invoices are due, net, 

 in 30 days from date, unless otherwise specified. 



REMITTANCES 



Suitable remittances or reference should accompany first orders. 

 Remittances by draft or money order are preferred. 



CONTAINERS 



Prices quoted include containers, except when otherwise specified. 



BREAKAGE AND SHORTAGE 



Our shipments are carefully checked three times by trained order 

 clerks and are packed by expert packers. Should an apparent shortage 

 occur, customers are requested to examine carefully the packing material 

 and container, since small articles frequently are lost in this way. If 

 unable to locate a missing item, please advise us promptly, enclosing 

 with your report the packing slip which we place in each box. 



If goods arrive in damaged condition, insist upon proper notation 

 being made on the transportation company's expense bill by their agent; 

 unless this is done claims cannot be prosecuted successfully. Trans- 

 portation companies act as agents of the purchaser, and we must refer 

 our patrons to them for reparation in case of damages. We are at all 

 times pleased to assist our customers in proving claims against the 

 carrier, but we cannot assume the responsibility of collecting them.
