Dear Sir: 
V 
Yotir letter received asking us in regard to certain bombs which 
we have been using in frightening birds away from the rice fields. 
• v;e use what we call duck bombs. These eell for ^5.00 per dozen, 
f. 0. b. San Francisco. 
: V < ' ■ * ' 
v/e can refer you to the fish and game commission of California, 
« 
headquarters at Sacramento, in regard to tho satisfaction these bombs 
have been giving, as v/e received a letter a fev; days ago from Mr. Keale 
in which he says "If rice growers knev/ and understood that these bombs 
are effective for which they are intended, they would purchase them in 
large quantities." 
Hoping to receive your favors whic^ v/ill have our prompt atten- 
tion, wo remain. 
Very truly yours, 
EADCLIFF SALES COMPAIJY,
