IT WILL SOON BE SEEDING TIME 
Another holiday season has come and gone and a new year is well started. Some folks 
have already ordered seed and shipment has been made. Many others will be ordering 
in the next few weeks. Much of our seed is in or will soon arrive and with few ex- 
ceptions there will be adequate supplies of all items. 
We think Scott customers will be well pleased with the high quality of seed this sea- 
son. Clean, noxious weed free, high germinating seed is still the most economical to 
use and produces the most satisfactory crops. While prices for good seed average but 
little above those of a year ago we have noticed more off quality "bargain type" seed 
being offered. Low priced seed always has something wrong with it and there is no 
reason for an exception now. 
SEED OATS - We wish we could have had more Clintons. A few bushels of Indiana Certi- 
fied were offered last week at eight dollars and we understand some have been sold at 
fifteen dollars per bushel. By another year more will be available and at reasonable 
prices. High purity Columbia seed is scarce as the Viclands have largely taken over 
the acreage where Columbias were grown. The uncertified Viclands offered are from 
certified seed and all oats and barley are well cleaned and treated. 
CLOVERS - ALFALFA - The seed is good quality and nice in color. Northern grown Grimm 
is not listed as it has been so much out of line in price compared to other good al- 
falfa varieties. Buffalo and Ranger alfalfa and Birdsfoot trefoil seed is limited 
but other clover and alfalfa seeds are ample. 
MEADOW - PASTURE MIXTURES - Contain only top quality seed. They are convenient to 
order and sow; and Experiment Station recommendations are closely followed in the 
formulas used. More customers each year are ordering Scott Mixtures and are report- 
ing excellent hay and pasture crops. 
HYBRID CORN - "Select a Hybrid to Fit Your Farm" which we hope you will like, is en- 
closed. All Scott hybrid seed is graded for width, length, and thickness, is treated, 
is high in quality and germination. Tests have consistently run above 95% strong 
sprouts. Most varieties are or soon will be ready for shipment. 
SOYBEANS - We wish we knew the answer on soybean seed supplies. With high prices for 
beans at harvest for milling purposes, many farmers sold their entire production and 
we don’t believe seed will be too plentiful. Please notice that our quotations in- 
clude inoculation at no additional cost. 
We always enjoy your letters and suggest your order be placed soon. 
Very truly yours, 
SCOTT FARM SEED COMPANY
