year went to the florists. And if winning 
prizes mean anything to you, it was away 
out in the lead at the Chicago show of the 
Mid-West Gladiolus Society last August. 
Large bulbs, $1.00; mediums 75c, smalls 
50c. Ten at eight times the single bulb 
prices. 
Mt. Index has a statliness that gives it 
individuality in the field even when sur- 
rounded by other good whites. Taller than 
Maid of Orleans with eight wide open, 
heavy textured florets on a 22 bud stem 
it dominates the field. Especially beautiful 
are the unopened buds. Thru the waxy 
white petals radiates a golden glow of 
translucent brilliance. Fully open the large 
florets are a milk white with just enough 
gold in the throat to give the flower 
warmth and life. Florists preferred it to 
all other whites last season. Large bulbs 
$1.00, mediums 75c, smalls 50c. Ten at 
eight times the single bulb price. 
General List of Glads 
Large bulbs (L) are from one and one- 
fourth to two inches in diameter. Mediums 
(M) are three-fourths to one inch and smalls 
(S) are about one-half inch. A planting of 
all three sizes, made at one time, will pro- 
vide bloom from early to late. Our Assorted 
Tens are made up of all three sizes and sell 
at the same price as ten mediums of any 
given variety. Try them. 
We sometimes have to substitute sizes, 
but never varieties unless your order comes 
late in the season. Order early and please 
remember no single item less than 10 cents 
and orders of $1.00 or less carry a service 
charge of 25 cents extra. 
Warning! No matter where your bulbs 
come from, whether you grow them yourself 
or buy them, save yourself a heartache by 
treating them before planting. Dissolve one 
ounce of Corrosive sublimate in a small 
quantity of hot water, add seven gallons of 
cold water and soak bulbs for ten hours. 
Plant while still wet. This solution is poison 
and should be kept at a temperature of 
about 70 degrees and in non-metal con- 
tainers. 
Prices—In all cases, 2, 5 or more mean 
that many of one and not several kinds. All 
varieties marked with a * are priced as 
follows: Large, 2 for 12c, 5—25c, 10—45c, 
25—90c, 100—$2.75. Mediums, 5—15c, 20— 
50c. Smalls, 10—25c, 50—$1.00. These prices 
include postage. For larger quantities and 
for shipment by express, write us for special 
prices. 
BULBLETS 
Because some folks like to “Grow their 
own” from bulblets, we will fill orders as 
follows: Varieties quoted at 2-12c we will 
send packets of from 25 to 50 bulblets for 
15c. On varieties costing more than 2-12c 
figure from 6 to 10 bulblets for the price 
of one large bulb. All bulblet orders must 
be for at least 15c worth of one kind.
