Dear Scott Friend: 
It hardly seems possible that it’s time to send you another early winter price list. 
Yet from the letters and cards coming in we know many are interested in quotations and 
plan to order some seed in December. 
Seed supplies are rather spotted. There is a good crop of Alfalfa and Lespedeza, 
moderate amounts of Red and Mammoth and probably enough Alsike, Sweet Clover and 
other legumes to last throughout the season. Exceptions are Birdsfoot Trefoil and new 
Certified legume varieties. 
The situation on the different grasses isn’t so good. This includes Timothy, Brome, 
Orchard Grass, Meadow Fescue, Reed Canary and several others. Our present supplies are 
fully up to those of last year but we. don’t know what to expect if we run out late in 
the season. Better order your needs on these items early. 
Hybrid Seed Corn, while not as large a crop as 1948, is excellent quality, well ma- 
tured and nice in appearance. We understand corn borer and windstorms played havoc with 
seed fields in several of the western corn belt states. 
Heavy oats adapted to this region: are scarce. - However, color and germination are 
good and top yields can be expected even though bushel weight is a little lower than 
usual. Clinton 11, an improved Clinton from Illinois, compares with and has performed 
equally as well as Clinton 59 and is in better supply than the 59’s. Andrew is a 
new high yielding white variety about the same maturity as Mindo and Columbia. All 
Oats and Barley are treated against stinking smut and seedling diseases found in the soil. 
To the many folks who have used Scotts Farm Seeds, we are sure you will find 
this year’s fully as good as in the past. They are high in germination, tops in quality 
_and noxious weed free. 
To those ordering for the first time, we feel sure you will find Scotts better than 
can generally be obtained elsewhere. Clean, high germinating seeds give more satisfactory 
stands, higher yields and more freedom from troublesome weeds. You, too, are interested in 
good crops and clean farming. Order Scotts for at least a part of your needs this year. 
CHRISTMAS and NEW YEARS GREETINGS TO ALL | 
Sincerely, 
THE SCOTT FARM SEED COMPANY 
The New Hybrid Corti Color Bulletin Will Be Sent With The January Price List.
