. NCE more we present to you our annual Catalog, the one for 1945 For sixty-four 
_yeats, Will's Pioneer Seed House has been serving the Northern Plains and breed- 
ing, growing, introducing and selecting varieties of vegetables, grains, fruits, shade 
ees and shrubs adapted to Northern Plains conditions. 
“= It is said that we are on the threshold of a new international world, and there is no 
a doubt that all nations on the earth have been more closely linked into a vastly smaller area 
by transportation changes and by closer acquaintanceship as a result of the events of the past _ 
2E0 dozen years. 
Physically, however, the world is the same old place and fie scattered human animals 
which continue to infest it can survive only by consuming the crops which by nature’s bounty 
they are permitted to produce. Agriculture will still be the foundation of human progress, 
culture and civilization, and we in the Northern Plains have a large part to play in keeping 
that foundation firm. 
_ We.believe that our long experience in studying our Northern Plains accords to us a posi- 
tion of some value in serving an important agricultural area where earliness, hardiness and 
vigor are outstandingly required qualities. We hope to continue that service with increasing 
- mutual benefit to ourselves and our home area for many years. 
"May we all strive toward the union and advancement of the people of our earth in the 
years to come-with fortitude, determination and clear hope. 
To all of our customers we wish to offer our apologies for the many instances of mis- 
= splay and carelessness which were all too evident in the filling of last year’s orders. We 
bo bs shall in the coming season do our best to remedy deficiencies in our organization, so far as is 
_ physically possible. We believe that the peak in labor inefficiency and indifference has 
_ passed. We still have a fine group of experienced and dependable employees in key posi- 
_ tions and we are pipes to handle business for the coming season with promptness, accu- 
- ag and efficiency.
