LIST OF GLADIOLUS 
Grown by 
E. N. Tilton, Ashtabula, Ohio 
We are glad to be able to offer a fine stock of gladiolus for the trade or small 
grower. Absolutely free from disease, you will also find them true to name. If 
you are just getting into the raising of gladiolus and’do not find yourself flush 
with money, I suggest you invest in the smaller sized bulbs and bulblets. The 
latter is apt to make a good growth the first season if soaked for several days 
before placing in the ground. 
Our stock of bulbs have been in tight containers with Naphthalene flakes for a 
period of five weeks. If you wish to soak your bulbs before planting, we use 
Bichloride of Mercury, oz. to seven gallons of water) in wooden container and 
soak nine to twelve hours and longer if you wish. This is poison and must be 
used with care, and sure death to thrips. Your druggist will give information 
as to smaller amount. 
If you have never grown gladiolus, I surest you plant at least four inches in 
sandy soil; about three inches in clay. Deep planting helps to keep them upright 
in the ground and helps moisture. 
You will note we are offering gladiolus in two's, ten’s, and 100's. Twenty-five 
can be bought at the 100 rate. Bulbs will be shipped to destination by parcel 
post or express as requested. If sent parcel post, charges will be prepaid and 
C. 0. D. transportation. This is our nineteenth year in growing gladiolus and 
peonies. I believe my customers will say I have dealt fairly with every one. 
If you wish to pay down one-fourth of any order, we can put up and save for you 
until wanted in the spring. This will insure a good selection. 
Add sales tax if you are living in Ohio.
