CULTURE — Any good garden soil, thoroughly prepared and manured, is suitable. Bone Meal in fall or cow 
manure (Bovung) in spring are particularly good. If the soil is stiff, add sand or sifted ashes. 
Gladioli do best in full sun. Plant in rows, 6 inches apart in the row and 6 inches deep, rows 12 inches 
apari. Continue to plant every 2 weeks till July for a succession. Frequent cultivation is advisable. Water 
copiously. Take up bulbs in fall before ground begins to freeze and put in a warm, sunny place, for a few 
days, to dry. Cut off stems close to bulb. Put bulbs (corms) in boxes not over 4 inches deep and keep in a 
dry coo! place till spring. 
Cut spikes as soon as the first one or two flowers are open. The remainder will open in the house.
