FARIBAULT, MINN. JAN. 1943 
ATTENTION! FARMERS AND GARDENERS 
You are in the war—standing shoulder to shoulder with 
the fighting men at the front or on the battleships. 
You are asked by the Commander-in-Chief to lead the 
big offensive on the Food Production Front—against our 
enemies in 1948. 
The production goals for 1943 just announced, call on 
farmers to break all records of turning out food for the 
war. This, despite the shortage of labor, of fertilizers 
and machinery. 
The outcome of the entire war effort may depend upon 
how well farmers succeed in producing the food needed 
in the face of such handicaps. 
The Government guarantees farmers, eligible under the 
AAA, prices most of which are above the 90% parity 
level, and for the period ending June 30, 1944. See Pro- 
duction Schedule on page 66. 
Special support prices to gardeners will be announced 
before February Ist. 
To help the farm labor situation, trained workers from 
low income areas will be shifted to more productive 
regions. Deferment of key workers from military serv- 
ice, will be given. Volunteer towns people, Mexican 
workers and perhaps supervised honor-roll prison work- 
ers, will be pressed into service. 
In this emergency, it is all-important to 
sow only the most productive and high 
germinating seed. To supply such seed is 
our responsibility, and we are sparing no 
effort to bring Master Farmer Seeds to 
your aid—in reaching the goals set. 
We bring these Victory Crops to your at- 
tention, through this catalog. Study it 
carefully—and order early. You will be 
well repaid by making your effort count 
most in the battle for freedom, 
Sincerely, 
Farmer Seed & Nursery Co.,
