KAYLOR NURSERIES, BLAINE, WASHINGTON 
Fellow Flower Fans 
We are pleased to present for your considera¬ 
tion this year, four new members of the Gladoli 
Family. They are our own “babies,” the best out 
of thousands of seedlings originated during 
1930-31. Naturally we think they are pretty fine; 
and we feel sure that if you will give them a 
chance they will make beautiful a spot in your 
garden and find their own place in your heart. 
A new Glad does not have to be high priced 
to possess quality. The proper test is, does it 
make good over a number of years. Our seedlings 
must pass this test for from three to five years 
and during that time we build up stocks which 
enable us to place them on the market at a rea¬ 
sonable price.

Introducing Retah Schell 
Like the most excellent lady for whom 
named, this Glad is stately and dignified without 
being cold and high-hat. Exhibition type, grow¬ 
ing very tall with a strong stem, perfect place¬ 
ment, texture and good health habits. Eight to 
ten five and one-half inch florets open at once 
with 10 to 12 
more to come. 
Color is pink 
with just enough 
creamy tint to 
make it warm. 
Some little be¬ 
gonia rose fleeting, a small rose feather, edged 
buff, on the lower petals. Blooms in about 90 
days. Impresses one with its color and statli- 
ness. Price for 1935, $1.50 each. 
Introducing Leschi 
In 1852 Washington Territory was created 
out of the north half of Old Oregon. Gen. Issac 
I. Stevens was appointed governor and indian 
agent. Upon his arrival in the territory he made 
treaties with the Indians whereby most of their 
lands passed under ownership of the govern¬ 
ment. The treaties were not carried out in the 
way the Indians expected and under the leader¬ 
ship of Chief Leschi, of the Nesquallies, war was 
declared. The Indians were soon forced into the 
forests. Word was sent Leschi to come in and all 
would be well. He returned to his farm and 
while ploughing in the field, was arrested, taken 
to Olympia and charged with murder. This in 
spite of the fact that he had been a general in 
command of an army. Convicted, he was placed 
in jail where he was later killed in a manner 
little short of murder. 
Leschi was an outstanding individual among 
the red men. That’s why we selected his name 
for our big dark red seedling No. 31-42. 
Leschi is an exhibition type; almost a self¬ 
color of clear but deep dark maroon red with a 
Leschi
