Considering the increase in the

tf.wheu the' stale levy was 5.70 mills.

ing first class spray compounds. ,lf it is not sufficiently pure for such purpose

ments, v - ,i: , ? Very respectfully,

Gentlemen: Your letter concerning sulfur and the sample of sulfur
have been received. . . '
I have examined this sample and find that it is almost entirely pure
sulfur. I think that it would answer the purposes very satisfactorily for
spraying compounds or insecticides. I think that if you have plenty of this
quality, or can get it, that it will be as good as any sulfur that we can obtain
for spraying materials. , .; 4 , Very truly vours
