GLADIOLUS. 
The Gladiolus is the most attractive of 
all the Summer flowering bulbs and de- •

but they do appreciate full sunshine. Set 
bulbs about four to six inches deep when 
early garden is made, and additional plant-

give a long period of bloom, 
from July to November. 
Cut when first flowers on 
the spike are opening and,

buds open to the end of the

decorative bouquet for ten 
days. No other flower is 
more lasting or more satis- 
factory in its rich coloring.
