MONSANTO EXPLAINS RUSH SALES DEBUT OF KRILIUM

Krilium soil conditioner, which golf course superintendents were told would not be commercially available until 1953, was introduced in newspaper ads May 11 by Monsanto Chemical Co., St. Louis, Mo. A Monsanto publicity handout for release May 11 gave the company's state-ment concerning the change in sales pol-icy which puzzled superintendents and left them unprepared to answer inquiries of their members.

With a St. Louis dateline the statement read, in part :

"Charles Allen Thomas, president of Monsanto, said that sales of the condi-tioner in a home gardening formulation will begin before the agricultural and erosion control formulations of Krilium become available.

"The home garden market was selected as the first outlet for Krilium because methods of application are comparatively simple and quantities of the product in-volved are relatively small," Thomas said.
