TO OUR FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS: 
The doors of this Store have been open for 70 years. To 
express this in another way, they have been open for more than 
21,000 business days! Over the years we have lived through three 
major wars .e. have seen-both good times and depressions. And we 
have seen many changes in our own line, too, for the agriculture 
of 70 years ago is a far cry from the methods employed today. 
But in one respect there has been NO change, and that is in 
quality! Quality has always been and will continue tc be our 
first consideration. 
And now a word about our stocks for 1946. We feel sure 
that there will be ample supplies of seeds, fertilizers, insecti- 
cides, and many other items to meet all expected demands. During 
the year, we anticipate a gradual return of the items that were 
"discontinued for the duration" ... however, in a few instances 
thessupply may not be sufficient to’ fill all orders. 
Some of the merchandise in short supply appears in this 
Catalog, but of course this does not mean that we will always 
have the goods in stock for immediate delivery. Again, we expect 
to have other items that are not shown in this Catalog for the 
reason that the quantities expected will not be sufficient to 
meet the demand. So if the article you want is not shown, please 
come to the Store or check with us. We may have it or be able to 
give you some idea of when it will be available. 
And. when you buy from Scott's you know that you have pur- 
chased the finest and highest quality item in its line --- one 
that is backed with 70 years of faithful service. 
Sincerely yours, 
President
