How to Make a Support for Glads 
As soon as the plants are a foot high, drive stakes into the 
$4 .20 | ground every seven feet, down each side of the row, having 
ppd. the two parallel rows seven inches apart. The stakes should 
be 18 inches high. Tack a light wire onto the tops of the 
stakes running it down both sides of the row. This support 
will protect the plants from storms and high winds and keep 
them from falling over into the pathway.
