Twenty-third Annual Catalog 
Since 1920 (its first year) the Puget Sound Seed Company has made every effort 
to provide pure seeds, honestly represented, with prompt service. 
We believe that seed grown in the Puget Sound district has a higher vitality and 
quality than seed grown elsewhere. When not available, we procure the highest grade 
of hardy northern and western seeds grown for us by the finest seed firms in the 
country, in selected varieties best suited for Northwest gardens and climate. 
If you have used Puget Sound Company’s seeds before, you know how satisfactory 
they are. We hope you will recommend them to others. If you are using our seeds for 
the first time, we hope you will note how choice the vegetables and how fine the 
flowers. Your recommendation to others will be greatly appreciated. 
: The planting directions given on the packages are necessarily brief. More complete 
information will be supplied at your request. 
OUR GUARANTEE 
We guarantee the vitality and purity of our seeds to the full amount of the 
purchase price. There are many natural causes why good seeds fail to grow—planting 
too early, while the ground is still too cold and wet; planting too deep; lack of mois- 
ture. Insects and birds eat the tender sprouts as soon as they appear. Should results 
not be satisfactory, we would like to help you ascertain the cause and correct it. We 
are so sure of our seeds that we send a duplicate package from the same lot, for 
replanting, on request, where first results were not right, provided the empty envelope 
is enclosed with the letter. 
Because success depends greatly on good cultural practice and climatic conditions, 
we shall in no case be liable for more than the price paid for the seeds or their replace- 
ment. If they are not accepted on these terms they must be returned immediately. 
(See Pages 38—41.) 
Since it may not be so convenient for you to go shopping for your garden plants 
this season, we have had Mr. Cecil Solly select, where possible in the State of Wash- 
ington, trees and plants of exceptional quality and vitality, grown for us by the best 
nurserymen. 
NOTE that all orders will be shipped from La Conner or direct from the grower 
from our selected plants. All prices include proper packing for safe delivery and mailing 
charges. Be sure to include the 3% sales tax—without which your order might be 
delayed. 
AS YET, THERE IS NO SEED SHORTAGE 
...and there will not be, provided every gardener only buys enough seeds for his own 
immediate use and plants that seed without waste. There are always one or two sorts 
that are normally scarce every year. Carrots, onions and some brassicas are not too 
plentiful now, but, since there will be plenty of them next season, be sure to buy as 
little as you need for this spring, so that there will be enough for everybody. 
WE DO URGE YOU TO BUY EARLY 
... by February, if possible, so that our mail order department will not keep you 
waiting for
