GLADIOLI (Sword Lilies) 
We offer only our Gold Medal Mixture for spring. 
HOW TO GROW GLADIOLI—Plant them as 
soon as the soil is in condition to be worked prop¬ 
erly, in full exposure to the sun, in any well-enriched 
garden soil, avoiding direct contact with manure, 
which should ever be used fresh (have it well-rotted); 
in fact, it is better to thoroughly manure the soil 
in the fall and respade in the spring. Where the 
soil is stiff clay, fill the drill rows with sandy loam. 
Water when necessary during the early stages of 
growth and again when the buds show color. After 
planting, a light dressing of three parts ashes and 
one part bone-meal will be beneficial. The bulbs 
may be placed in double rows 2 inches apart in a 
4-inch drill, 2, 3 and 4 inches deep, according to 
size. Plant from the middle of April to the end of 
May and in June. To secure a succession of bloom¬ 
ing, make two or even three plantings, at intervals 
of about two weeks. Before the ground freezes, 
dig up the bulbs, cut off the stalk close, and store 
in a cool, dry place. The old bulb, or more properly 
speaking, corm, may be removed a few weeks later 
when convenient.
