Tucker’s Seed House Is at Your Front Door 
The efficiency of the United States Mail and the ease of ordering from this book has practically 
placed our seed store at your front door. Whether you wish information or seeds, you are as close to 
us as your mail box. 
And remember, the seed store is always the place to buy seeds, plants, and bulbs. To produce, store, and 
distribute such items has been a lifetime study with us. All of our thought and facilities are devoted to 
giving you first quality and prompt, efficient service. This is our business and not a sideline, so we must 
give better service. 
After thirty years’ experience, we not only know best where and how to produce each kind of seed, but 
we know how to store, clean, and test these seeds so as to give you stock of good breeding, high vitality, 
and greater producing qualities. Knowledge is the basis of the seed business and this unseen element 
often controls the yield of your crops. 
Therefore, since you have an old, experienced, reliable seed store, so close, so easy to reach—prac¬ 
tically right at your front door—why not avail yourself of the superior service of such an organization? 
Sincerely yours, 
January 1, 1937. TUCKERS’ SEED HOUSE 
IMPORTANT SUGGESTIONS 
One Per Cent Sales Tax for Missouri 
We must ask our Missouri customers to include the One 
Per Cent Sales Tax with their orders. 
Under the law we are compelled to collect this tax on all 
seeds and supplies sold and delivered in this state. The 
tax is small and the purpose for which it is collected worthy. 
Your Name and Address 
Always be sure to sign both. We receive a great many 
orders each year either unsigned or without address. Write 
plainly and keep a copy of your order. We will supply 
additional order sheets on application. 
How to Send Money 
Money can be safely sent by Bank Check, Post Office 
Money Order, Express Money Order, Registered Letter. 
Postage Stamps in small amounts are satisfactory. 
Freight or Express Shipments 
For large orders to be shipped by freight or express, be 
sure to give the name of your railroad station, and state 
by which method you wish shipment made. 
Seeds by Mail Postpaid 
OUR PRICES —In comparing our mail prices with others, 
especially on heavy seeds, such as Peas, Beans and Corn, 
by the pound, two pounds, five pounds, ten pounds, and 
other seeds by the pound and one-fourth pound, bear in 
mind that we pay the postage (except to foreign countries) 
unless otherwise noted. 
Not Prepaid 
Means that the purchaser pays the cost of transportation. 
Please state how you want the seed sent. To points beyond 
the third zone, it is cheaper to ship by freight or express 
than by parcel post. 
Fluctuation in Prices 
Always Your Money’s Worth 
Seed Potatoes, Onion Sets, Grass and Clover Seeds, Grain 
and other Field seeds fluctuate in price, depending upon 
the market conditions and supplies. The prices given in 
this catalog are those ruling at the time it is printed, the 
middle of January, and hold good for 30 days from that 
date unless our stocks on hand become exhausted before 
that time. We will take pleasure at any time in quoting 
prices on request, or will fill all orders entrusted to us at 
as low prices as possible for first class seeds. 
Conditions of Sale 
We give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to de¬ 
scription, quality, germination, productiveness, or any 
other matter of any seeds sent out, and will be in no way

considered to agree with our terms and conditions of sale.
