LaCONNER, SKAGIT CO. WASH., Jan. 1, 1913. 
To All Who Can Use Seeds: 
We send you this TWENTY-EIGHTH ANNUAL Catalogue of the Beat Seeds 
for your use, hoping you will favor us with your esteemed orders for such Seeds, 
Plants, and Roots, as you may need in our list. Whether you are an old customer, 
or a new one, be your order large or small, we will give it prompt and careful atten- 
tion. We have the largest Mail Order Seed business in the Northwest, and try to 
fill each order on the day it is received. We have a Deputy Post-Master Clerk, so 
that the P. 0. Department takes the Packages of Seeds from our Seed Store, with- 
out the delay of having to go through the Post-Office, but go directly to the Mail 
Car. We find the Postal service very reliable, but if you>hould not receive prompt- 
ly, notify us, so we can find out what has gone wrong. If you do not get them 
promptly, the chances are that you have forgotten to sign your name, or to put a 
stamp on your letter. 
Our Seeds will save you many Dollars, by reducing the "High Cost of Liv- 
ing." A good Garden will enable you to live high, at low cost, and reduce your 
Grocery, and Meat Bills. Also Doctor Bills, as Vegetables and Fruits are healthier 
than too much meats. The best and only way to have a good Garden, is to use good 
Seeds. If you have never tried our seeds, ask some of your neighbors who have 
used them. We promise to keep them as good as, or better than they always have 
been in the past. We wish it to be distinctly understood, however, that we do not 
grow all our seeds here ourselves, but such as we do not grow here, we have grown 
for us by experienced Growers, in such localities as the best seeds can be grown. 
With each order for seeds by Packets, Ounces or Quarter Pounds, we will put 
in a Free Packet, for each 50c of your order, if you will say what kinds will be 
most acceptable to you. But this does not apply to the Special Offer Collections, 
nor on pound orders. 
Thanking each and every one who helped to send us so many thousand Orders 
la.st year, and hoping to hear from you all again, and your neighbors with you. I 
beg to remain: 
Yours Sincerely, 
A. G. TILLINGHAST. 
(For Instructions for Ordering, see next page, which I hope you will read very 
carefully. )
