For the first time in several years the demard for Gladiolus seems to have caught up with the 
supply and already the surplus of many varieties is pretty well exhausted and prices are 
advancing. We have contracted as usual for a supply of well cured bulbs, up to size and true to 
name, which are offered at the following reasonable prices as long as our stock holds out.
