ABOUT THRIPS 
While much is being said by growers about control of thrips, I believe much 
the same as our Experiment Station, that all that has been done is only in the nature of 
experimentation, and I am not so positive about it as some of the growers are, and what 
ever you do will be an experiment. 
However, I believe they can be controlled to an extent that we can have good 
flowers. Here we have had good results from gassing the bulbs, also from the use of 
Napthalene. There is a difference of opinion about Napthalene; some think it injures 
the bulbs, others do not, but for the small grower it seems to be the logical thing to 
use about one ounce to 100 large bulbs. Place a paper over them for a while than take 
it off after some 3 weeks and if the bulbs have air the flakes should not injure them. 
Large growers no doubt will gas where possible. Before you plant your 
bulbs by all means disinfect them—use 1 can commercial lye to 20 or 25 gallons of 
water, soak 10 or 12 hours. This is cheap and quite effective but there are several 
preparations on the market that may be better but more trouble to use perhaps. 
After the Glads are up spray with 2 tablespoons of Paris Green and 11-2 
pints Molasses in 3 gallons of water, or you can use B*-own Sugar or Glucose. Spray 
as often as you can, but once a week at least. Theie are other sprays on the market 
that you can use if you like. 
JUST A FEW CULTURAL NOTES 
The Gladioli are so easy to grow that they may be planted anywhere so long as 
they are in the sun, but will not do well in the shade. Don’t try it. 
Plant any time after the middle of April to the middle of June in any manner 
that best suits your plot of ground. Plant from 2 to 5 inches deep, the larger the bulb 
the deeper it should be planted. It stands up better. : < 
Now start the cultivator. The more the soil is kept stirred when not too 
wet, the better it conserves the moisture and your plants will do bettei. 
The Gladioli will take a lot of water at blooming time. If you are in a position 
to water them at this time, do so. If not, they will do fairly well without, by keeping 
the soil well stirred up. 
When cutting the flowers keep as many leaves as possible on the plant to 
mature the bulb. Too low cutting weakens the bulb. 
When digging, but the stalk close to the bulb and dry well. When well diied 
and cleaned, store in cellar away from the furnace. If near the furnace, keep dish of 
water near them. 
The flower of the Gladiolus is the finest for vases for the sick room, hospitals, 
churches, cemetery and decorations of all kinds. Use them freely. 
While I make no special claim for my bulbs, every year I receive many fine 
letters from customers who were pleased with my stock and pleased with the service 
rendered. We have a large stock and ship orders promptly.
