Chladiolus Blooms 
IN YOUR GARDEN 
FROM JUNE UNTIL 
FIRO'S| 
Plant some Gladioli every week commencing as soon as all danger of frost is over. By 
keeping the bulbs in a cool, dry place, about forty degrees, they will keep and remain 
dormant as late as August. This will give you flowers from late June ‘till frost. 
Plant a few of the bulbs in berry baskets in early March, placing them in a frost-proof 
cellar or frame where they can make roots; when all danger of frost is over, plunge them, 
basket and all, into the places in the garden where they are wanted, and you will have 
fine blooms in late May and early June. 
It is always well to have a quantity of Gladioli planted at various times in such baskets or 
in pots and pans growing in frames so that from time to time you may be able to fill vacant 
spaces in your borders by plunging these in for quick or immediate effect, very early 
or very late in the season.

We have been asked by many friends who visited “‘Paradou,” our 
display gardens at Brookville, Long Island, to tell them what sort 
of plant food we use in growing our choice bulbs. We told them 
we had a special formula that gave health and long life to these 
plants. A few prevailed upon us to make up a quantity and let 
them try it in their own gardens. We did. 
The extraordinary success that these gardeners met with and the 
enthusiasm resulting from it, have encouraged us to offer all our 
friends and patrons a chance to use the very same plant food in 
their attempt at producing healthy, luxuriant flowers with strong 
stems and exquisite colorings. 
And so we present this opportunity for you to order some of 
SCHEEPERS’ BULB FOOD, and we recommend that you try it 
with your next planting. It is almost entirely composed of organic 
matter and may be used with absolute safety in connection with 
the planting of bulbs at any time, in any soil, or with any other 
plants. It is also economical—a teaspoonful for each bulb is the 
average requirement. 
A good plan is to spread a small quantity over the area where the 
bulbs are planted or around the growing plants before you culti- 
vate. Worked into the soil in this way will show splendid develop- 
ments in plants and flower buds. 
We are sure that if you take advantage of this offer you will find 
it a very happy investment. (Directions for use contained in each 
bag or can.)
