VALERIA (Pruitt). Early mid-season. This big tall flag-red is taking DR. F. E. BENNETT'S 
place in the scarlet class. A spike sent up from a VALERIA bulb, of whatever size, is a 
good spike, The arrangement is far better than BENNETT'S. A bright color, and a self- 
color. One of the very best, and most dependable. For 15c, either 2L, or 3M, or 6 No. 5, 
or 100 Blts. For 60c, either 10L, or 20M, or 40 No. 5, or one A. S. 
WHITE GOLD (Scheer). Early. Among the earliest to bloom and about the biggest of all, 
— an unusual combination. By far the finest in the cream class. A real cream, not a 
white-yellow. Exceedingly strong grower, For best results use the larger bulbs. Large, 
60c each, $6.00 per 12. Medium, 40c each, $4.00 per 12. Small, 30c each, $3.00 per 12. 
Blts., 60c per 12. 
WINGS OF SONG (Ellis). Mid-season. The spikes, even from the smallest bulbs, are so 
full of big wide blooms that you'll have to stake them. One of the most floriferous of all 
glads, and a very free bloomer. Has won many ribbons at the shows. The color is a rich 
geranium pink, somewhat lighter in the throat. Large, 2 for 15c, 70c per 12. Medium, 
2 for 10c, 50c per 12. Bits., 15c per 25. 
WURTEMBERGIA (Pfitzer). Late mid-season. Rather old variety, but folks like it very 
much. A big tall scarlet with a large white blotch. For 15c, either 4M, or 8 No. 5, or 
100 Blts. Small, $1.20 per 100. 
(The above 71 varieties are from 29 different originators). 
SUPERIOR MIXTURE 
No varieties enter into this mixture except from the named and time-tested varieties 
offered elsewhere in this catalog. This means a mixture of high quality. This mixture is 
also made up of all the different colors, so long as the stock is available, namely, white, 
yellow, red, lavender, blue, pink, salmon, purple, rose, wine, cream, orange, black-red, scarlet, 
smoky. Not surprising that I send out hundreds of these mixtures. It is mixed at the time 
your order is shipped. If there are certain colors you do not care for, let me know, and they 
will be left out. Order 100 bulbs, at least, to get the full benefit of this fine mixture. Medium, 
$1.60 per 100. No. 5, 80c per 100, $7.50 per 1000. 
There is a fast-growing demand for the smaller young bulbs, such as No. 4’s and No. 5’s 
that have never bloomed. Large growers for the big cut-flower markets use them extensively. 
A good many of my customers are finding these sizes very satisfactory. Try them for yourself, 
at least for a part of your order. A good many varieties do very well indeed from No. 5’s, 
and some of these are so indicated in the variety descriptions above. 
A FEW OF THE NEWER GLADS THAT ARE GOOD 
OREGON GOLD again this past season was certainly outstanding for sheer beauty and 
gorgeousness. I had spikes over waist-high from No. 6 bulbs, spikes that opened, every one 
of them, from 6 to 9 big wide-open blooms at once (one had eleven), On just good Iowa 
corn ground that has never been watered or fertilized, for at least 15 years. A grand spike, 
well-placed, close-fitting blooms, opening to the very tip days after being cut, nicely ruffled, 
and a clear light yellow, deepening into a crystal-clear rich yellow throat. Just the yellow for 
Iowa, at least. 
WHITE GOLD. Most folks want them big and showy. Well, here is one to their taste. 
With all of its great size, however, it is never floppy, or messy, but a very graceful and dig- 
nified flower. The color is a real cream, not a pale yellow, and deepens to a rich cream 
throat. And very early. 
Four more top-notchers are CORONA, GENGHIS KHAN, SENSATION, and WINGS 
OF SONG. CORONA is most striking and unusual. GENGHIS KHAN is a glorified NEW 
ERA, SENSATION, — well-named, — was simply grand this past season. WINGS OF 
SONG is a whale of a lot of flower. Other good ones include MYRNA, the champion’ winner 
of purple and blue ribbons at the many shows the past summer. WVALERIA, the grand and 
dependable flag-red. MARGARET, BEATON, acclaimed the best since PICARDY. KING 
LEAR and PURPLE BFAUTY, the two finest purples I know. CORAL GLOW, a gorgeous 
orange. RIMA and NEW ERA, two lovely pinks. The well-named and striking BEACON. 
The glistening velvety REWI FALLU.
