‘(New Zealand Splendor”’ 

Prices, Terms, Delivery 
Gladiolus prices are guaranteed for this fall 
only—until our spring catalogue is mailed in 
January. Many of these offers will be with- 
drawn altogether in January. 
TERMS: Cash with order, or %4 cash with 
order, balance C. O. D. Or send % with order 
and balance any time before shipment. 
DELIVERY: (Except wholesale lots.) We 
pay all postage or express charges, and guar- 
antee safe delivery. (Our choice, whether 
parcel post or express.) 
Express is often cheaper than parcel post, 
as bulbs take a special low rate by express.

than listed. (5 or more bulbs at the 10 rate; 
but must amount to not less than 10c.)

from 1% inches up, mixed sizes. (Part No. 1 
and part No. 2 sizes.) This size is designated 
by the letter “L”’. 
MEDIUM BULBS measure *% inch to an inch 
or larger, mixed sizes. (Part No. 3 and part 
No. 4 sizes.) Medium bulbs are designated by 
the letter “M’’.

in case of shortages we may pro rate deliv- 
eries.
