INTRODUCTION 
Now that the so called “DEPRESSION’’ is passing, the Glad industry is again 
coming into its own. We have taken advantage of this quiet period to work up 
stock of our New Named Pedigreed Glad Crosses to offer to Glad Lovers who 
are seeking something NEW of real merit, for their personal pleasure or to ex¬ 
hibit at the Shows. We are listing our own ORIGINATIONS exclusively; therefore, 
you will find them “SOMETHING DIFFERENT”; and we assure you they are 
all well worthy of your trial. 
We have endeavored to give a plain unembellished description of our New 
Introductions, with habits of growth and blooming as they have developed for us 
during the past three seasons as grown in nursery row and without any intensive 
culture whatever. This period of bulblet propagation usually establishes the merit 
of most New Seedlings; and should o urs nrov^ e ven better for you than we have 
described them as to growth and size c 
tives. 
Ren you may supply the adjec- 
There is a decided THRILL in trying out something NEW, whether it be a 
New Car or a New Glad; and we should like to see our Introductions tried out 
over as large an area as possible this year; and, as occurs with many new varie¬ 
ties, our stock of these we list, is as yet quite limited indeed. 
We trust that Glad Fans will not be disappointed in our Introductory List, 
in-so-far that it is not a Catalog replete with Color Reproductions of our worthy 
New Glads. We have decided against an expensive Catalog at this time, and will 
pass these savings on to you in more moderate prices. Our Exhibition stock 
bloomed very early this year, and we missed the East Bay Glad Show by two or 
three weeks, otherwise we could have some good reports to publish. 
INSPECTIONS 
We operate under California State License No. 220; and our Gardens and 
Bulbs are under the immediate inspection of the San Mateo Co. Agricultural
