CULTURE—Any good garden soil, thoroughly 
prepared and manured, is suitable. Bone Meal or 
cow manure (Bovung) are particularly good. If 
the soil is stiff, add sand or sifted ashes. 
Gladioli do best in full sun. Plant in rows, 6 
inches apart in the row, and 4 inches deep, rows 
12 inches apart. Continue to plant every 2 weeks 
till mid July for a succession. Frequent cultiva¬ 
tion is advisable. Water copiously. Take up bulbs 
in fall before ground begins to freeze and put in a 
warm, sunny place, for a few days, to dry. Cut off 
stems a few inches above bulb, tie in bunches and 
hang in a dry cool place or store in paper bags. 
Cut .spikes soon as the first one or two flowers 
are open. The remainder will open in the house.
