 Skating and dancing parties alternate. 

 OflScers of this firm report that in 

 handling the Christmas trade they used 

 a force of six shipping clerks and four

Gladiolus Jack London 



(The exhibit by the Richard Diener Co. which took sweepstakes at the San Francisco 

 gladiolus show. August 7. 1920. The flowers all came from bulblets.) 



No. 38. "JACK LONDON." Light salmon with brilliant orange 

 flame stripes; golden yellow throat with ruby striped center; flowers 5 

 inches in diameter, spikes 5 to 6 feet high. Each, 50c; per dozen, $5.00; 

 per 100, $40.00. 



Our best commercial variety and largest propagator. Will soon 

 be grown by the million. It is perfect in every way. As a cut flower it 

 is our most profitable variety, as we have never been able to supply the 

 demand. It makes a wonderful showing under artificial light. We 

 recommend everyone to plant as many bulbs of this variety as possible, 

 as it surely is a most profitable investment. Even the smallest bulblet 

 will bring five months after planting, a 4 foot spike.

Mr. C. E. Oldacre of Toronto, Canada, writes us the following on Sep- 

 tember 20, 1920: 



"Meritorious articles deserve favorable notice and commendation and 

 that applies to your Gladioli. Of some forty varieties, most of which are 

 considered the cream of the Gladioli world, which I had this year, your 

 No. 38 Jack London is right up in the front ranks with all points con- 

 sidered. Neither your short catalogue description, nor your colored illus- 

 tration of same does this flower justice. 



"It is of great substance, a most beautiful color or color combination, 

 and the individual flowers are well placed, forming a shapely, erect spike, 

 which carries five to seven wide open flowers at a time that makes a 

 bouquet in itself. More than this, it seems to be a most lasting variety, 

 as .the individual flowers retain their true color for twice as long a period 

 as do many others. No. 38 is easily the top-notcher in its color class and 

 should be one of any first-class selection of varieties. 



"When friends were looking over my Glads the question was asked 

 as to what six varieties were the most admired and No. 38 was always one 

 of the six that were chosen." 



Our new catalogue describing nearly one hundred of our new Gladioli 

 productions and many other novelties, along with reproduction of same 

 in natural colors, is free. Write for it to-day.
