Bulbs and Tubers 57 
GL ADIOU 
Gladiolus flowers last longer when cut than most any others 
and open up best in water. Bulbs should be planted between 
April and May, 4 inches deep and 2 inches apart in the drills, 
single rows 12 inches, and double rows 18 inches apart. Beds 
do well planted 4 to 6 inches apart each way. 
Thrip. As a safeguard against thrip, our bulbs are carefully 
fumigated for 24 hours with the very effective gas Ethylene 
Dichloride (3 parts) and (1 part) Carbon Tetrachloride, ap¬ 
plied on the basis of 14 lbs. to 1000‘ cubic feet of cellar stor¬ 
age. This should render the bulbs you get absolutely free 
from thrip germs. Should thrip develop from air carriage 
during the growing season, there are several good applica¬ 
tions available.
