any ordinary soil as the Gladiolus. Set the bulbs from 3 to 6 inches apart in rows, or for massing 6 inches apart, and about

Hints on Cultivation of Gladiolus Any good garden soil in the open garden where there is plenty of sunshine and 
a fair amount of water is ideal. Fertilize with well rotted manure turned under in the Fall; or, if manure is not available, 
pulverized sheep or cow manure can be used by putting in bottom of trench when planting and covering with an inch of soil. 
be used on the surface during growing season, being careful to keep from direct contact with bulb 
or foliage, ror extra large spikes, fertilize heavily, but do not omit to water freely, at least an inch of water every 2 or 3 days.
