PLEASE READ CAREFULLY ; 
Do not change collections or special sets. The collections are made up as they are for definite 
reasons and we cannot change them. Any of these collections or specials are very good value. 
Do not split quantities as listed. Where a variety is listed at 2 for 15 cents or 4 for 15 cents 
do not order 1 or 2 at a lower price. There is no profit in any items of less than ten cents and 
very little at that price. No single item accepted for less than ten cents. 
EXTRAS ON CASH ORDERS. On cash orders of $2.00 to $5.00 you can select 10% 
extra in bulbs of your own choosing. From $5.00 to $25.00 select 15%; $25.00 to $50.00 select 
20% and above $50.00 select 25%. These Discounts do not Apply to Collections, Special 
Offers or Wholesale prices. . v 
TO MAKE OUT YOUR ORDER put everything down on the order blank, just as listed in 
the price list. Add it up then figure out any special discounts or add on the extra bulbs of your 
choosing. It is all very simple but some people seem to have a lot of trouble in making out an 
order. 
Also on all orders of $15.00 or more I will put in a bulb of Royal York. (See below). 
On orders of $30.00 or more I will put in a free bulb of The Mogul. (See below.) 
The above discounts and extras are all for cash orders. The earlier the orders are received 
and the larger they are the more generous we will be with our extras. If you cannot spare all 
the cash now send 25 % and the balance later and we will see that you are satisfied. But the 
above extras are only for cash before shipment. 
On cash orders of $12.00 or more, except collections, I will give a copy of the “Gladiolus 
. Book" by Rockwell if you ask for it and if you have not already had one. 
Packages of bulblets run from twenty-five to fifty or more. We give very good value. 
You can have 3 bulbs at the 10 rate; 25 at the 100 rate. But no single items for less than 
10 cents. 
I GUARANTEE SATISFACTION and I mean just that. If at any time, either after 
receiving the bulbs or after blooming, you have cause for complaint just write me about it and 
I will do my utmost to make things right. This is the only basis on which anyone can hope to 
conduct a business that will be permanently successful. 
At these prices all bulbs, except the wholesale offers, are prepaid anywhere in the United 
States and Canada and all countries in the Postal Union. 
SPECIAL QUOTATIONS. Do not ask for special quotations unless you have a large 
order. We will not consider quoting any special prices on small orders. I publish this price list 
to give people the prices and do not consider it honest to give one person a lower price than an¬ 
other. However on a very large order we may be able to make lower prices on certain 
items to Growers, Dealers or Jobbers. 
REMEMBER in buying bulbs price is not everything. In fact sometimes price is a minor 
item. Consider the quality, count, the reliability of the grower, etc. I always mean to put in 
enough extra count or over size to make up for any lower price that other good reliable growers 
might make. Just leave it to me. - , 
IF YOU WANT TO PAY TRANSPORTATION and get extra count on your order 
just mention it and I will send your order collect and will see that you are more than satisfied. 
Just mention whether you want extra count on your order or extras in other kinds and what 
kinds. If you want bulbs sent by mail it is better to have them go C.O.D., then we know the 
postage is correct and I will give you more than enough bulbs to make it up. 
ON FAIR SIZED ORDERS, EXPRESS is safest and best especially in the winter time; 
I advise express if you are situated so as to get free delivery by the express company. 
EXTRAS. It is the practice of most growers to give extras on orders. I always put in some 
myself. So it would help me if you will mention whether you want extras of the same varieties 
that you order or in other kinds. And if you have a preference it will help me still more if you 
can name the varieties in which you want your extras and if you want large, medium or small 
bulbs or bulblets. Just give us a list of varieties from which to select your extras. We will put in 
what we think the order rates.

the Canadian Exhibition. Many people have wanted to buy this variety but we have held it to 
work up a stock. A few bulbs were sent out last year in collections to see how the public would 
like it. and the result has been most gratifying. This variety will be sold next year at probably
