GLADIOLUS 
1923 Go/hen, Indiana 1939 
We have been growing Gladiolus for sixteen years and have learned, 
from every angle, the best methods for producing fine bulbs and the va¬ 
rieties in which the public is most interested. Growing Gladiolus is our 
major occupation, not a side line, therefore our biggest gain comes from 
pleasing our customers. We have letters from satisfied buyers in all parts 
of the United States but cannot print them as space does not permit. A 
satisfied customer means repeat orders and that means honesty and good 
quality. 
This list offers you sturdy varieties in all sizes which will take care of 
the most conservative buyer. Our descriptions are short, but we believe long 
enough to give you a good idea of color and blooming habits. Many peo¬ 
ple like to buy several sizes in order to have blooms throughout the entire 
season, from the earliest date to the latest with one planting. 
In our price list we extend an invitation to you to visit our enterprise at 
any time. Many have done this and all ask the same questions concern¬ 
ing the growing and care of Gladiolus. Many requests come to us through 
the mail for this knowledge so we have prepared a folder on our culture of 
Gladiolus which we will mail free with each order shipped from our farm. 
These methods can be applied by the home gardener to his own particular 
problems. 
This year we are giving you every opportunity to secure Gladiolus 
of the finest quality at the lowest possible cost. We are not selling BAR¬ 
GAINS, we are selling QUALITY. All precautions are taken to sell you bulbs 
first class in every respect, true to name and graded up to size. 
In the summer our fields are State Inspected as are the storages where 
the bulbs are stored. We are constantly guarding against the dangers that 
lie in wait for a Gladiolus bulb.
