A Garden Full 

 of Gladioli 



fQE $fOQ 



The Gladioli is one of the most 

 satisfactory flowers grown because 

 it blooms continuously when it is 

 cut and put in water, just as well 

 as when in the ground. 



There is no reason why every family 

 cannot enjoy this grand flower, for the 

 simple reason that it is as easy to grow 

 as the potato. You can have them in 

 bloom from July to frost if you plant a 

 few bulbs each month from April to July. 



For only One Dollar we will send 75 

 Bulbs of our Grand Prize Mixture, 

 which covers every conceivable shade in 

 the Gladioli kingdom. 



Last year we sold 150,000 of the bulbs 

 and have received hundreds of testi- 

 monials as to their merits. 



ORDER YOUR BULBS NOW 



so as to have them to plant when you 

 begin making your garden. 



The culture of Gladoli is a simple one; bulbs 

 may be inserted in the ground with a trowel, 

 about four inches deep and one to two feet apart, 

 being careful to rake over the ground with a small 

 weeder, after the bulbs have started to grow, so 

 as to keep it from becoming hard or cakey. This 

 will insure splendid blooms. 



Write or call, at our store, mention The Garden 

 Magazine and secure this splendid collection of 

 Gladioli Bulbs for only $1.00, prepaid to your 

 home, anywhere in the United States, with our 

 1914 Catalogue.
