PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 
As this another year rolls around and we again prepare this catalogue 
for you of your favorite flower “The Gladiolus” we cannot but offer sympathy 
for some of our fellow growers in other sections of the country who have not 
had the ideal growing season that we have enjoyed. The season was hot and 
dry but we had plenty of bottom moisture and our bulbs have developed in 
very fine shape and we have the finest and largest crop we have ever harvested. 
May we thank you one and all for your orders of last season and only 
hope that your Glads were as nice as you could wish for. 
Our catalogue this year is a little later in getting to you but we have 
attempted to not only give you a list of the Glads but els much information as 
possible about them. You will notice that following each variety you will find 
the letters A. B. C. D. etc. which if you will use the key chart which you will find 
enclosed you will be able to get a good idea of just what to expect of each 
Glad. We cannot give a complete chart of each variety as some of the newer 
ones we have not grown long enough to give an accurate listing to. But we have 
however listed the traits which we feel are more or less permanent in that 
variety. 
The letter first following the variety such as (K) and (Pf) etc. is abrevia- 
tion for the originator of that variety such as (K) Kundred, (Pf) Pfitzer, etc. 
Everything we sell is fully guaranteed in every respect, and any error or 
omission will be promptly and liberally adjusted, if reported. You are at; 
liberty to return any shipment if it does not fully meet your expectations, and( 
purchase price, plus return charges, will be promptly refunded.
