materials costs approximately 112 per cent since 1942. But our sales volume
has increased 2490 per cent and our productive efficiency 374 per cent in the
same period.
Balancing these things, we find that we are able to cut back our retail
plow prices to a level approximately that of 1942. Modern equipment,
improved manufacturing methods, our incentive wage system, and above all
the unusually high type of hard-working, independent Middlewesterner who
builds our plows, have combined to bring our factory to a high peak of
productivity. We are passing the benefits on to our customers, who during
the past 23 years have enabled us to become the nation’s largest producer?
of one-way disc plows.
This price reduction is simply the execution of what we think is sound
policy, that of producing a better and better plow to sell for less and less.
To this end we pledge our future efforts.
Sincerely,
5 SINCE ONE-WAY PLOWS WERE BUILT “
