Sixteenth Annual Catalog 
We desire to improve and perfect a standard of business, which shall 
include purity of stock, honesty of representation, carefulness of obliga¬ 
tions and promptness in service. 
Please Read Carefully 
Seeds grown in the Puget Sound district have a higher germination and 
vitality test than seeds grown elsewhere. But all seeds are not successfully 
grown and harvested here owing to climatic conditions—so, in securing our 
seeds we make every effort to get them locally grown, but when we are 
unable to do so we try to get Northwest grown, or seed found most satisfac¬ 
tory for Northwestern states. 
We have selected the varieties best suited for the home garden and use 
only the highest grade stock obtainable. 
Look our catalog over thoroughly and compare the prices with other 
seed houses. . . . Give us a trial order—we feel sure you will be satisfied. 
Plants, Bulbs and Dahlia tubers will be shipped at the time best suited 
for planting. 
Ask Your Merchant for Puget Sound Seed 
In addition to our MAIL ORDERS, we sell our seeds in DISPLAY GASES 
with your local merchant. The seeds found in these cases are the SAME 
HIGH QUALITY that we serve you with in our Mail Order Department. 
If your merchant cannot supply you, write us. Do not take any substitute; 
see that every packet bears the name “Puget Sound Seed Co.” 
NOTICE! 
WASHINGTON STATE RETAIL SALES TAX 
To comply with the State Retail Sales Tax Law, we ask you to add 2 % 
to the total amount of your order, or in other words, 2 cents on every 
dollar. The tax applies to all seeds, bulbs, tubers and plants. Field seeds 
and seeds used for commercial production—producing for sale, such as 
truck gardening—are not subject to the tax. 
OUR GUARANTEE 
There are many causes why seeds do not germinate. Planting too early 
while the ground is still too cold and wet; planting too deep. Insects eat 
the tender sprouts as soon as they appear. Investigate the condition 
thoroughly before blaming the seed. We guarantee the vitality and purity 
of our seeds, bulbs and plants to the full amount of the purchase price. 
WE PRE-PAY POSTAGE

All seeds and plants will be delivered to your nearest Post Office or
