Netherland Prince, another of the newer Glads, wins favorable com¬ 
ment from all who see it . Tall, straight spike with many large pink 
florets open. Paul Pfitzer bears the originator’s name. This should 
be praise enough for this red purple Glad. Picardy deserves the praise 
it receives. Large shrimp pink florets with begonia rose feather, on 
tall straight spikes. Pride of Wanakah is a tall, large flowered rose 
with a hint of lavender. Primate, my choice of the deep yellows, has 
growing habits almost identical with Golden Dream, but with larger 
wide open florets, and larger bulblets. Ramesses is about the tallest, 
largest purple. The supply has been inadequate. Salbach’s Orchid is 
similar in form to Minuet, but pinker. Large wide open florets of 
heavy substance and fine placements. Schwaben Girl is an early pure 
pink from Pfitzer. Sheila is one of the earliest large salmon pinks. 
Sultan is a strong rosy red of heavy substance. W. H. Phipps, so long 
at the head of the list, has lost none of its charm. Winged Victory 
won first prize for the largest individual floret in Chicago last year. 
Wolfgang Von Goethe is a strong big Glad of salmon red raspberry 
color and comes from Pfitzer. 
MY SENTIMENTS 
The last few months have been rather dull and I will be satisfied 
if I can sell my glad bulbs for a very small profit above cost of pro¬ 
duction. In order to do this and get the bulbs to you at the lowest 
possible cost to you, I am forced to scrap many old established customs. 
When bulbs are sent pre-paid, this item is added to the selling 
price. Since this cost can not be known in advance, it must be esti¬ 
mated and this forces those living near the supply to pay a part of 
the transportation for those living farther away. When I offer a dis¬ 
count in bulbs for a given sized order, the cost of these bulbs must be 
added to the selling price. When I promise over-count and extras, these 
must also be added to the selling price because some one must pay for 
everything. Nothing is absolutely FREE. “The consumer pays the 
taxes,” so also do the consumers pay for transportation, discounts, 
overcount and extras. 
I propose to eliminate these charges and let every one pay his own 
transportation charges, alone. Buy what you WANT and PAY for 
what you get. The saving will buy extras, if you want them. 
My Bulbs are guaranteed to satisfy you in every particular. True 
to name, healthy, standard sizes and no thrips. 
Please be considerate in asking me to put up small items, because 
I can not do so without loss, at these prices. 
Prize certificates should be honored at the ten rate, or less. 
5 at the 10 rate if not less than 10c an item. 50 at the 100 rate. 
Priced F. O. B. Normal, Illinois, subject to stock. Please do not 
send stamps in payment for bulbs. I get more than I need at times. 
Some object to personal checks, but I like ’em, if they are good.
