To those desiring to purchase a limited number of bulbs for their own 
backyard garden or for a friend, any one of the following varieties may be 
purchased in lots of 10 by dividing the 100 rate by 5; for example, Ave Maria 
is listed at $2.00 per 100 for No. 1 bulbs, thus 10 bulbs would be 40c. Five 
bulbs of a variety at the 10 rate, but no single item for less than 10c. No 
retail orders accepted for less than $1.00. Plenty of extras and trial bulbs 
will be included in your order in addition to: 
2 bulbs Black Opal with $2.00 orders. 
2 bulbs Greta Garbo with $5.00 orders. 
2 bulbs Mother Kadel with $10.00 orders. 
1 bulb Oregon Gold with $15.00 orders. 

FIVE OUTSTANDING NEW ONES 
Mother Kadel (Kadel) 
The commercial yellow that cut flower growers have long been looking for. Its 
ability to open well when cut gives it first place as a cut flower. Its placement is 
100%, with 5 to 7 four-inch florets of a beautiful, clean, live medium yellow, open 
at once. There is absolutely no marking, and its clearness is exceptionally outstand- 
ing. A good propagator and fine grower. We have had reports from all over the 
country, including a very favorable one from Central Florida. 
Not only is it 2 commercial—it’s the best in a Show Glad. To our knowledge 
not once has a representative spike lost on the show tzble in its class, and we have 
seen to it that Mother Kadel was well represented in all Eastern and Mid-Western 
Shows for the past two years. 
The entire originator’s stock is now owned jointly by Everett A. Quackenbush 
of New Cumberland, Pa., and ourselves.
