GOOD GLADIOLUS 
So wonderful have been the improvements 
in this most popular garden flower during the 
past few years that we have omitted the old 
varieties from our list and describe only .these 
new kinds. Gladiolus are easier to grow than 
any other flower we know. They are never 
bothered with bugs, no disease spoils them— 
all they require is ordinary garden soil, water 
when it is dry, and they will thrive and bloom 
profusely. We particularly call your attention 
to the very reasonable prices at which these 
new kinds are quoted. 
If you want a superb showing of Gladiolus 
in your garden, plant the bulbs in groups of 
six, eight, or twelve of a kind. As a back- 
ground for annuals and perennials, and among 
shrubs and evergreens, the effect will be most 
pleasing. 
All our bulbs are over-size, clean, free from 
thrip or disease, and will give you excellent 
results. We furnish 6 bulbs at the dozen rate; 
25 bulbs of the same variety at the 100 rate. 
By mail or express, prepaid east of the Mis- 
sissippi River; to more distant points, add 5c¢ 
per dozen.
