SALES TAX 
We wish to call attention of all our 
customers to the State Sales Tax Law 
which makes it mandatory on the re¬ 
tailer to collect a tax of 2% on retail 
sales. This means that 2 cents tax for 
each $1.00, 1 cent for each 50c and one 
token for each 10c purchase. 
State Sales Tax applies to the fol¬ 
lowing: All seed, vegetable or flowers 
for home use. All plants, shrubs, fruit 
trees, rose bushes, bulbs, etc., for 
home use. All fertilizers, insecticides, 
or any other merchandise for home 
use. All lawn grass is taxable. 
The following items are exempt from 
State Sales Tax: Flower seed or bulbs 
for raising flowers to sell. Vegetable 
seed used to produce vegetables to sell. 
Plants purchased to produce vege¬ 
tables, fruit, or flowers for sale. Field 
seed used to produce pasture, hay, 
grain, or other crops to sell or feed 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. 
HOW TO GET OUR SEEDS 
HOW TO SEND MONEY: If the amount is 50 cents or more, send by POSTOFFICE 
MONET 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 Tllllnghast 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 8th ZONES: Owing to the fact that the postage on seed in 
the 6th, 7th and 8th zones 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 Ic 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 delivery.
