LONGS SALE OF 

At Digging-Time Prices--Fall Delivery 

It’s good business to buy Glads in the fall. 
Fall buying gives you the pick of the_ stock, 
assures your getting the varieties and sizes 
you want and at very reasonable prices. 
We recommend buying at least part of one’s 
Gladiolus bulbs in the fall, for several reasons. 
One doesn’t feel it so much if he buys part 
of his Glad bulbs in the fall instead of waiting 
until spring. 
“The cream of the crop” is what we promise 
our fall Glad buyers. 
Then, too, it’s fun having your bulbs and 
bulblets right where you can watch them and 
keep them safely through the winter. Just to 
“paw them over” from time to time, and vis- 
ualize the rare and beautiful spikes of bloom 
they will produce, is no small compensation, 
as any real fan will know. 
We don’t claim that fall prices are always 
lower than in _ spring. Sometimes otherwise. 
But we fill the fall orders so liberally that the 
customer is ’way to the good anyhow. 
Three Size Glad Bulbs 
The LARGE BULBS measure (in diameter) 
from 1% inches up, mixed sizes. (Part No. 1 
and part No. 2 sizes.) This size is designated 
by the letter “I”. 
MEDIUM BULBS measure % inch to an 
inch or larger, mixed sizes. (Part No. 3 and 
part No. 4 sizes). These Medium Bulbs bloom 
splendidly, though the large bulbs make still 
larger spikes and more of them. Medium bulbs 
are designated by the letter “M’’. 
NOTE: If sold out No. 1 size, we may send 
all No. 2 for Large, but more of them. If out 
No. 3, will send all No. 4 but more. of them. 
Usually have enough so can send as noted 
above, however. 
SMALL BULBS are designated by the letter 
“Ss”, They will average nearly half-inch in 
diameter. Not sold as blooming sizes, yet 
many will bloom. 
NOTE: It will help us in filling your Glad 
bulb orders if you will mention the size each 
time: Large, Medium, Small, or just the letters 
L, M or S.

NS 
Right now when many prices rise, 
We may be wrong, we may be wise, 
To make OUR prices somewhat lower, 
And help each eager garden grower. 
To carry out this noble plan, 
Some frills and costs we’ve had to can— 
Send out a modest catalogue, 
And not, this year, put on the dog.

If You Pay P. P. or Express 
All Glad bulbs in this catalogue are priced 
PREPAID, except wholesale lots. 
BUT many customers have been much 
pleased with our special proposition. 
If the customer pays express on Glads priced 
prepaid, we will send extra Glads to more than 
offset the express charges. We’ll send extra 
bulbs of kinds on your order, or some good 
kinds, our selection, or maybe both, 
If order part from wholesale list and part 
from prepaid lists, you will find it much to 
your advantage to do as many others have 
done. Just say, “Send all at my expense and 
add more Glads to COVER SENDING COSTS 
ON PREPAID ITEMS.” &a 
Send No Money for P. Post 
Express is often cheaper than parcel post, 
as bulbs take a special low rate by express. 
But if you specify parcel post shipment and 
you pay carrying charges, then we ship C. O. 
D. for postage. Please do not send any money 
in such cases for postage or try to estimate 
it. Nor say you will remit for postage later. 
We keep no postage accounts. Hither ex- 
press, you pay express on arrival, or parcel 
post, the postage C. O. D. 
Any Glads priced prepaid may be ordered 
f. o. b. Boulder, at the prepaid prices, but we 
then send you more than enough extra stock 
to offset the carrying charges. (Order should 
be $3.00 or more to take advantage of this 
offer.) 
Safe Delivery Guaranteed 
We ship bulbs all winter. Prefer to ship 
soon as order received, because have so many 
other shipments in spring. But, of course, 
will hold until spring if you say so. Safe 
delivery guaranteed. You take no risk, no 
matter when we ship. 
SPRING DELIVERY. We will store orders 
amounting to $4.00 or more upon payment of 
25 per cent or more on the order this fall. 
But so far as possible, we need to ship 
Glad bulbs THIS FALL and early winter. 
Short on storage room. 
SONGS, Long Count 
As all our old customers know, your GLAD 
orders will be filled most liberally. We could 
promise you more for your money, but we like 
to surprise you by doing better than our offer. 
The larger the order, the more liberal the 
overcount. 


NOTICE Our fall Glad prices are made 
out early. If we are too low on 
some items, that’s your good luck. If a bit 
high, we’ll send plenty more Glads to adjust. 
Thus prices are in YOUR favor “in the Long 
run. 

Special Price on Large Lot 
Send list for price on the lot, if-you care to, 
but only for good sized lots. not a list amount- 
ing to only a few dollars. We’ll make you price

nitely the kinds, sizes and quantities of each
