THE GLAD PATOR 
Spring 1941 | Normal, Tllinois 
We are thankful we have so many good glad friends and we 
appreciate the orders you have sent us. In return werassure 
you,we will exert every effort to send yeu the oe bulbs 
you order, when you want them. 
The reason behind this style of price list is four 
costs so we can supply you with the highest quality pulbs s 
at the lowest cost to you. Our motto, quality and service. 
The sudden cold weather last fall caught our newer var= 
leties still in the field. Larger plantings of commercial . 
@lads were dug first. The. glads we offer are good ones,and 
when well grown and exhibited in full bloom have won first 
prizes. Some have won champion and grand champion prizes. 
Our soil is fertile loam that puts vitality into the bulbs 
so they can produce prizo winning spikes for you,if given 
proper treatment. Our stock was treated with Semesan before 
being planted in soil that had never produced glads. We 
have not boen bothered with thrips. - 
Cultural hints, care of flowers and bulbs, insect control
