GOLDFARB’S (Coeloxfal GLADIOLUS 
Few flowers compare with ‘‘Glads”’ for ease of growing, color, garden show and cutting purposes. Plant the 
bulbs in clumps of six or more throughout the flower border or in double rows in your vegetable patch for cutting. 
They should be placed 6 inches deep and 4 to 6 inches apart. For the cutting garden, plant double rows allowing 
2 or more feet between the rows. : . yee 
Gladiolus will grow in any fertile soil in full sun. Make the first planting while the ground is still cool and con- 
tinue every three weeks until early June. . 
Fertilize with Organic Plant Food (see page 6) when growth first appears. Cultivate often and water well 
during warm dry weather. ; 
Spray with Protexall to keep away any possible infestation of thrips (see page 44). DDT sprays have proved 
100 per cent effective if used every ten days from the time Glads are 6 inches tall. They are well worth this slight 
effort. 
Bulbs should be dug, dried and stored before heavy frost.
