MIXED VARIETIES 
Although in our plantings we never do otherwise than keep all va- 
rieties separate, some people like to raise a few Glads not caring to do 
this, We have made up a mixture for such, trying to include the entire 
color scale about equally, consisting of only good variety values in bloom- 
ing size bulb stock, at the following quotation—50 bulbs for $2.00—100, 
$3.50. 
BULBS AS REMEMBRANCE GIFTS 
We have had numerous requests to make up differently sized parcels 
consisting of bulbs to be given as presents. No better remembrance might 
be given than this. For those wishing to do so, we will make up sep- 
arate parcels in any amount desired for the purpose of gift occasions, 
mailing announcement card of yourself as donor with the same to any 
party designated.
