HELLO FRIENDS: 
(Because of the time required to prepare our new Catalog, it will not be out until January. This season 
we advise early orders and if our catalog with full descriptions of varieties is desired we will forward our “1934 
Spring Catalog” upon receipt of your request.) 
We are offering our Fall List in very condensed form our object being to offer in concrete form and terms 
Gladiolus Bulbs of quality in varieties of merit at minimum prices. 
First, you will note our Retail or Prepaid prices covering the outstanding newer varieties. Following this 
list you will find our Wholesale List, on which purchaser pays transportation charges. 
If you do not find the varieties you are interested in listed in Prepaid List, look for them in the Wholesale 
List. You will note that you may purchase in quantities of ten bulbs of the same size and variety frem Wholesale 
List. Ten bulbs at one-eighth of 100 price. You may also purchase single bulbs at one-fifth the price of ten.

choice to cover cost of transportation and send shipment all charges collect OR we will send prepaid in accord 
with our terms of Prepayment under “Carrying Charges”under Wholesale List. You to specify how you wish 
them sent. 
The Weather Man played some pranks on the good old U. S. A. this season as I think most of you will agree; 
but we were fortunate in having two first-class wells and a pumping outfit with a capacity of 4 000 gallons of 
good clear water per hour and sufficient pipe to cover our entire garden so that our growing crop has been com¬ 
pletely and adequately watered with the result that we feel we have never offered better stock than we are 
offering this season. 
WHAT WE OFFER 
We offer true to name bulbs of the highest quality at reasonable prices. This is not an idle remark, but 
this statement is based on fact. Our stock is carefully treated before planting to prevent disease. Our gardens 
have been carefully inspected again this season by both State and Federal inspectors for the detection of Gladiolus 
Thrip and we have been advised that none has been found. Of the latter fact we are both thankful and proud. 
Mr. J. H. Heberling, Easton, Illinois. Sutherland, Nebraska, September 17, 1934. 
Dear Sir:— “It gives me great pleasure at this time to tell you how beautiful my Glads were this summer. They 
were far ahead of any I have ever raised before. Thanks for the extras, they were all such good ones.” 
Yours very truly, j ;:| 1 I i , 
MRS. W. H. TRACY.
