There Are None Finer Anywhere 
I have gathered together in this group the very 
finest, newer better varieties, real prize winners, 
all of them; big tall stately stems with huge flow- - 
ers of brilliant colors. There are no finer tulips 1 
than these. Mrg. May and I visited the.Pella 
Tulip Tournament and some of these tulips are 
varieties exhibited at this tournament. My, I could 
just talk on and on about tulips. I believe they . 
make a finer show and add more color to your home 
garden than anything you can plant. These vari¬ 
eties I have listed here are' the very best. I know 
because I have seen them grow rand bloom.

How to make a Tulip Bed with 100 bulbs, 
200 bulbs, or 500 bulbs 
Just dig up a plot of ground 5 feet square. This will take care of 
100 bulbs nicely. Better place a little sand in the bottom if you have 
it. Use the tulip fertilizer which we send free to add extra size to 
your flowers. Just set the top of the bulb 4 or 5 inches below the 
surface and about six inches apart. A bed like this will make 
you a mass of beautiful color that you will be proud of in the Spring. 
I plant my tulips around the borders of the shrubs, along the side 
of the house, and out in the parking along the barberry hedge. You 
can always find odd places among your shrubs to put out tulips. 
A plot of ground 7 feet square will take care of 200 bulbs. 
A plot of ground 11 feet square will plant 500 tulip bulbs.
