November 1, 1942 
Gentlemen: 
Enclosed find our fall and spring wholesale price list, effective 
as of November 1, 1942. Curtailment of tire production and gasoline 
rationing has compelled us to withdraw our salesmen from the road with 
the result that our prices are changed to F.0.B. Beverly, Mass., or 
Boston, Mass. It is our suggestion that upon receipt of this price 
list, you look same over and mail your order for anticipated require- 
ments aS soon as possible. Shipments can be made from January 1st on, 
or immediate shipment if you so desire. 
In the past it has been the custom of the trade to order the bulk 
of their requirements during the months of April and May which, in 
normal times, has caused delay in shipping and receiving. This delay 
is unavoidable when shipping directions come to us practically all at 
once. Owing to present emergency conditions, which has effected 
transportation to a great extent, you will by ordering early eliminate 
unnecessary delay. 
In regard to fertilizer as shown in our price list, we are unable 
as a manufacturer to book for future or immediate shipment any chemical 
fertilizer containing chemical nitrogen. This is in accordance with 
the War Production Board regulation M231 governing the manufacture and 
sale of chemical fertilizer containing chemical nitrogen and this 
applies to the formulas which we manufacture, with the result»that our 
fertilizers are frozen which are on hand in our warehouse. However, 
this regulation does not cover our dealers who have fertilizer on hand 
up to November 15, 1942. It is our understanding that they may dispose 
of same. If in the future there is any change in the fertilizer 
situation, you will be promptly notified. 
Thanking you for your past favors and soliciting your future 
business, we remain 
Yours very truly
