"Sales Vans: A total of sales in a seven day tour of Multyfarnham Area by A.O. Carter amounted to £532. 3. 2. Principal items sold included 2, 3‑plate Jackson Cookers; 2, 3‑plate Moffat Cookers; 6, Everite Shallow Well Pumps; 1, Everite Deep Well Pump; 2, 3‑pint Kettles; 3, Power Packets; 1, 11‑gallon Waterheater, and 1, Immersion Group. Mr. Carter then transferred his attentions to Moore Area where, in two weeks, his sales totalled £500. Among the principal items sold here were 3, Grain Grinders; 4, Everite Shallow Well Pumps; 8, Mono Pumps, and 1, 3‑H.P. Motor. We liked the understatement of his concluding remark — “there is nothing further to report.”
