SNYDER’S “GLAD ACRES,” CLAWSON, MICH. 

MR. and MRS. GLAD FAN: 
A very hearty Thank You, for the many fine 
orders you have been sending us. Your letters 
of commendation are very highly appreciated, 
and even though we do not answer all of them, 
it is only because in these days of help short- 
age, we do not have the time. But send them 
along; we sure enjoy them. 
To new customers we wish to state that we 
will try to please you to the best of our abil- 
ity with some very fine bulbs, of some of the 
finest varieties. We cannot grow all of the 
varieties coming on the market, but we do try 
most of them in our test garden, and pick the 
best to catalog for your gardens. 
This year we are introducing five new varie- 
ties which we fee! are outstanding in their re- 
spective classes, and which have already done 
quite well on the show bench. 
We have been asked why we did not tell 
our customers of the many Ribbon Winners 
that we show each year. So this year here are 
some of the newer varieties that won for us at 
the S.E.M.G.S. show in Detroit, the only show 
we could get to this year, where for the third 
year we won the large silver S.E.M.G.S. Trophy 
and 38 Ribbons and Rosettes. 
White Gold (the largest bloom in show) plus 
two other ribbons. Exquisite, winner in 3 class- 
es, Lois, new introduction winner, a giant that 
is going places. Black Diamond, Prelude, Spit- 
fire, Glamis, American Commander, Redwin, 
Southern Drama, Rosa Van Lima, Firefly, Jean- 
ie, Corona, and Oregon Gold were winners of 
outstanding beauty. Many other varieties in 
our catalog bloomed too late, and missed go- 
ing to the show this year. We try to show the 
new varieties so our friends and customers can 
see how outstanding they all are. 
~ ORDER YOUR BULBS EARLY THIS YEAR! 
We have a good stock of fine bulbs, but there 
will not be enough to go around this year, due 
to many growers going out of business, and 
none having adequate help.
