Oe erson Modern and Best Standard Gladiolus 
All of our bulbs are thoroughly cleaned, fumigated, and dipped to destroy Thrip and other insects 
When planting in sections where Thrip is prevalent we recommend, as an extra precaution, soaking the bulbs for six hours in a 
solution of Lysol disinfectant, mixing four teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. 
This treatment stimulates root growth in dormant bulbs. 
Bulbs may be dipped and left for as long as three weeks before planting. 
Methods for Controlling Thrip on Growing Plants 
Make careful examinations of plants when 5 to 6 inches high. If silvery spots are noticed on the foliage spray or dust plants with 
D.D.T. 5% (see page 138) every 12 days until the lower bud on each plant shows the first sign of color. Directions on each container. 
Individual Bulbs Supplied at One-Tenth of the Dozen Rate: Six Bulbs of a Variety Sold at the Dozen Rate, 25 at the Hundred Rate. 
Gladiolus Bulbs Are Delivered Transportation Paid in the U. S. A.
