“I think that DEBONAIR, VAGABOND PRINCE, EDITH ROBSON and 
TOKEN are wonderful glads.” — Wm. E. Fassnacht, Indiana. 
“This is my second order of this No. 1 collection. I sent for the same two years ago. 
They were simply lovely, the finest I saw that season.” — Mrs. Theo. Slade, Ky.

Vagabond Prince 
VAlfiflA ★ ★★ (Pruitt) (Com) (HG) Light red somewhat deeper than 
^ Red Phipps. 5-7 large slightly ruffled blooms open on a 
good height spike. Said to stand the heat and dry weather very well. I have not 
grown this myself but have had good reports on it and have seen it growing. Looks 
like a coming commercial red.

“MARGARET BEATON certainly is a magnificent flower. 
“My individual customers (I have built up a line of customers with discriminating 
taste who want glads simply for house decoration every week ) are wild about DEBON¬ 
AIR and I have had people stop me time and again and ask where they could buy such a 
beautiful variety. 
“AMRITA, VAGABOND PRINCE, CAMELLIA and REGENT gave superb 
bloom under adverse conditions. 
“TOKEN is going to be in the front rank of cut glads of the future. It increases 
three for one and makes the largest bulblets I have ever seen, even under adverse condi¬ 
tions. 
“I am discarding PICARDY in favor of RAPTURE as my customers prefer it 
and it makes superb blooms from No. 3 without crooking. It withstood all kinds of ad¬ 
verse weather this season and increased exceedingly well. PICARDY No. 1 and RAP¬ 
TURE No. 3 were planted side by side and whereas PICARDY had many culls 
there were practically no culls of RAPTURE and had straight and taller spikes (in 
heavy and well drained clay .)” ■— Robert C. Monclure, Virginia. 
“ This is the third year I have ordered glads from you. I have never seen finer glads 
than yours.” — Mrs. B. C. Gwaltney, Ind.
