SOME SUGGESTIONS TO GROWERS 
If you are interested in Glads you should join a Gladiolus 
Society. For information concerning the Pennsylvania Gladiolus 
Society, write to Mr. J. R. McDowell, Secretary, R. D. 9, South 
Hills Branch, Pittsburgh, Pa., or write to us. 
We suggest the soaking of all bulbs before planting, 
whether bought from us or someone else, for the prevention 
of thrip and also other diseases. We also use some Napthalene 
Flakes mixed with bulbs in storage. One ounce sprinkled on each 
100 large bulbs for about 3 or 4 weeks if confined in bags or 
longer if in open flats. 
We recommend Corrosive Sublimate (Mercuric Chloride) 
for the soaking of bulbs. Dissolve one ounce of the powder in 
a bit of hot water and pour into 7 gallons of water above 60 de- 
grees. Soak 7 to 10 hours or over night. 
Do not use metal containers. Use wood, crock or glass. 
Bulbs can then be planted wet or dry. 
For spraying we suggest the Tartar Emetic spray. 8 table- 
spoons Tartar Emetic, 1 pound brown sugar or 5 tablespoons 
Karo syrup, 5 gallons water. Apply any time of day every week 
or ten days.
