SALES TAX 
■ 
We wish to call the attention of all our customers to the 2% Sales Tai Law. 
By this law it becomes mandatory for the retailer to collect a 2% tax on every 
retail sale made to a resident of the State of Washington. This TAX applies to 
all items listed in this catalog except the following: 
Flower seed or bulbs for raising flowers to sell; 
Vegetable seed used to produce vegetables to sell; 
Plants purchased to produce vegetables, fruit, or flowers for sale; 
Field seed used to produce pasture, hay, grain, or other crops to sell or fed 
to animals to produce eggs, butter, milk, or meat for sale; 
Fertilizers entering into the growing of any of the crops listed above or for 
any crop of hay, grain, fruit, or seed which is produced for sale to others. 
“All seed, plants, or fertilizers used to produce lawns, flowers, vegetables, etc., 
for home use are taxable. 
• 
We trust that all our customers in the State of Washington will include the 
necessary TAX in their remittanca If tax is not sent please state why you are 
entitled to exemption. 
Non-Warranty 
Most of the failure with seeds, plants, and bulbs are due to causes entirely 
beyond our control, such as unfavorable weather or soil conditions, insect pests, 
faulty planting, etc., which makes it impossible for us to guarantee success, and 
although we take every care to sell only such goods as will, under proper condi¬ 
tions produce satisfactory results, we give no warranty as to description, quality, 
or productiveness of any of the seeds, plants, bulbs we send out, and will not 
be in any way responsible for the crop, and every order for articles named in this 
catalog will be filled on these conditions only. It must be plain to every thinking 
person that it is to our best interests to send out only such stock as will give 
satisfaction in ©very way. 
How to Get Our Seeds 
HOW TO SEND MONEY: if the amount is fifty cents or more, send by POSTOFFICF 
MONEY ORDER, drawn on La Conner, Wash., P. O. (in applying for which you can fill out 
at home, for the postmaster, the government blank application which we send you with the 
order sheet). If you prefer you may send Express Money Order, Bank Check or by Registered 
Letter. If the amount is less than FIFTY CENTS, you may send Coin, securely sealed and 
plainly addressed. Be sure that all Orders and Checks are drawn to the order of the Tillinglfast 
Seed Co., La Conner, Wash., and that all Coin should be wrapped with a small piece of cloth 
or strong paper, or otherwise secured from shaking loose in the letter. 
POSTAGE IN 6th, 7th and Sth ZONES: Owing to the fact that the postage on seed in 
the 6th, 7th and Sth zone is so much greater than the nearby territory. All customers in 
Alaska, Canada, and all the states lying south and east of the following states: Washington. 
Oregon, Idaho, California and Montana, must add 8 cents extra to your order for each pound 
that your order will weigh. Otherwise we will be forced to send your money’s worth ‘or to 
hold your order until the necessary postage is received. 
PARCEL POST ORDERS: We wish to call the attention of our customers to present 
parcel post rules which permit us to send up to 70 pounds in a single parcel anywhere in the 
United States or Alaska. Thus, grass, clover, vetch or other seed ordered in quantities can be 
delivered to you by parcel post at about lc per pound postage anywhere in the 1st or 2nd zones. 
This will be found to be of special value wherever freight service is slow or uncertain in 
deliver}'.
