F OR beautiful flowers available from July until late fall, there are none more dependable or magnificent than the Gladioli. 
Planted in clumps they are attractive in the garden and as a cut flower they have no peer. By planting at intervals, about one 
week apart, starting the first part of May and continuing to the middle of June, a succession of bloom may be had from July until 
late fall. Plant the bulbs in cultivated, well-drained soil about 5 inches deep. They do best in full sun. When cutting 3 or 4 leaves 
should be left to the plant which will allow the bulb to properly mature. After the first killing frost, t^e the bulbs up care¬ 
fully and cut off the stalk adsout 1 inch from the bulb and allow it to dry about one week, llien pack in shallow boxes and 
place for the winter in a cool dry cellar where the temperature will not go below free .ang. The following veuieties are among 
the most lovely and dependable: 1
