2268618 September 1915. On letterhead with Royal Warrant of The Royal Seed Establishment Reading England. See the entry for Martin Hope Sutton in the Oxford DNB and that for his grandson Martin Hubert Fouquet Sutton in Who Was Who. 2pp 4to. I good condition lightly aged and worn. Folded three times. With RSA date stamp. Signed 'Martin H F Sutton'. In reply to a letter from Menzies Sutton expresses regret that 'it will be impossible for you to attend the Demonstration here on the 24th inst.' Sutton will be 'publishing certain particulars for the benefit of those present' and will be glad to send Menzies a copy. He continues: 'My experiments which are now in their second year have been carried out solely for the purpose of acquiring knowledge and I have no axe to grind for I am interested in none of the Syndicates formed for the purpose of placing radio-active fertilizers on the market.' He is disappointed that the results of his experiments are 'on the whole distinctly of a negative character' given 'the really elaborate character of the experiments' and 'the marvellous results obtained with radium when applied to plants'. He will consider acting on Menzies invitation to read a paper on the matter but in the meantime asks him to 'treat this letter as confidential'. In 1916 Sutton published 'Experiments in humogen in comparison with other fertiliser: a report of the tests carried out at Reading in 1916'. 18 September 1915.

20200834San Francisco CA: El Rico Land Company 11-Dec-19. General wear and soiling. Letter folds. Minor penciling on envelope. A letter to a Mr. Peter Goettsch of Nicolaus CA regarding payment of his dividends in the El Rico Land Company. Originally enclosed with this letter was check for $400. The letter is on a specialized letterhead meant for exactly this type of correspondence. The majority of the letter is preprinted with blank sections in order to fill in the date check number and amount. The letter is signed by the company's secretary A. W. Sutton. In the background of the letter is a blue screened image from a photograph depicting a single Caterpillar Tractor pulling four large trailers behind it filled with what appears to be sacks of grain. Single page letter with corresponding envelope. Measures 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" letter 6" x 3 1/2" envelope. In the Caterpillar Times Vol. 35 No. 11 pg. 5 a promotional magazine of the Caterpillar Tractor Company available on Google Books named Caterpillar Times Volumes 35-37 in November 1915 there is what appears to be another image but at a different angle of this same engraving printed in the issue. The caption there reads "The biggest load ever pulled into El Rico Calif. Outfit of the El Rico Land Company. Total load - 55 tons 1300 pounds." There is not much information on the El Rico Land Company but they appear to have been an investment company/ land colonization company based in San Francisco which purchased land in and around the San Fernando Valley specially El Rico CA in order to encourage people to move there and farm it.
