INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING BULBS 
All orders for $2.00 or over postpaid. Prices in this list are net. All orders must be 
accompanied by cash in full or 25% cash may be sent with the order and the balance before 
shipment. All stock is guaranteed true to name, disease-free, and thrip-free. All stock is 
offered subject to prior sale. If any of our customers are willing to pay the transportation 
charges on their order, we will see that there are bulbs of a value much larger than the 
shipping cost added to the order to offset these charges. 
Where bulblets are listed by the packet, 50 to 100 or more will be included in each 
packet. Excellent value guaranteed. 
Five bulbs will be sold at one half the price of ten, but no single item will be accepted 
for less than 20 cents, unless quoted. If no 10 price is stated, it may be found by multiply- 
ing the price of a single item by 8. 
We earnestly urge you to order as early as possible to avoid disappointment. 
EXTRAS 
We make it our business to put in with your order extra varieties, usually the 
newer ones for you to try out. If you like them, there is a good chance your order 
will include some more next year. You see we can both win. 
BULB SIZES 
Bulbs are graded into six different sizes. No. 1 size is 142 in. and up; No. 2, 1% in. to 
1% in. with ™% in. variation down to No. 6 size, which is 42 in. and under. In the retail 
list where Large, Medium and Small are used, Large will consist of No. 1 and No. 2 sizes, 
or No. 1 size as long as they last. Medium consists of No. 3 and No. 4 sizes, or No. 3 
size as long as they last. Small sizes consist of No. 5 and No. 6 sizes. Early orders will 
get preference on the size. If you order Medium sizes for instance, and you get part 
or all No. 4 bulbs or % in. to 1 in., please do not write us that we have given you 
the wrong size. It’s simply because we are out of No. 3 size, and No. 4 bulbs also go 
as Medium size. Medium bulbs will almost invariably bloom, although not quite as 
large a spike can be expected as from a large size. Small-size usually will bloom, but 
not always.

“There was a lot of comment on your 99-41 
(Wedgewood). I think it is exceptionally nice 
for the smaller class. Another seedling that 
rather took my fancy was 268-42 (Beauty’s 
Blush). This is really a beauty and it seems to 
hold its color right to the top bloom. Have a tip 
here in front of me at the present time and it 
seems to be the same blush pink that the first 
flower was that opened in the field. Will say this 
much, that your seedlings have showed more 
vigor than those of any other hybridizer, unless 
it might be one.’’—Alfred Moses, New York. 
“I did not enter the number of your best seed- 
ling in my book but it is the one that opens flat 
wide open, pale flesh white, not really a white 
and not really pink, pale flesh would be my 
uess. (Beauty’s Blush). This is 5XX, excellent, 
or me. Spikes were nice and straight, with good 
height and opened up a good head of well placed 
bloom, entirely worth while in the best collec- 
tions and I think it made bulblets from the 
large bulbs. If this keeps up like it did this 
summer it will be a valuable addition to the list 
of good pastel colored glads.’’—E. H. Lins, Minn.
