 more food this year than ever before — we've promised Bel- 

 gium, and France, and England, and the other allied coun- 

 tries that they shall not suffer. So, our gardens must 

 produce a large part of what the home folks need.

If You Have Not Yet Bought 

 a Few Bulbs of Gladiolus 



PRINCE of WALES 



for Your Garden You are 

 Missing Something 



Here is a variety that has extreme merit either for garden 

 use, for exhibition or as a florists' forcing flower. Extremely 

 early, with wonderful large wide open flowers of gorgeous 

 glistening salmon melting into a throat of the sweetest 

 yellow. A full size spike of PRINCE OF WALES with its 

 eight to ten flowers open at once surely typifies the joyous 

 spirit of sunshine in a summer garden. 



Stock of this has been very scarce and high priced and is 

 still scarce, but I believe that I have the largest TRUE stock 

 of this variety in America and although my large bulbs are 

 practically sold I am determined that every true garden 

 lover shall know this beautiful flower and to that end I am 

 offering for this month ONLY small flowering size bulbs at a 

 price so low that no one can neglect to try them. 



These bulbs planted any time not later than June first, are 

 sure to bloom and while the flowers will not be as large, or 

 as many, or the spike as tall as secured from big bulbs still 

 the wonderful color will greet you and in the Fall fine large 

 bulbs will be your_ reward for next year's planting. Order 

 early and do not miss this opportunity. 



Three bulbs for 25c. — Seven bulbs for 50c. — Fifteen bulbs 

 for $1.00— One hundred bulbs for $5.00. ALL POSTPAID 

 ANYWHERE. Cultural Directions FREE with all orders.
