HELLO FOLKS:— 
It is indeed a pleasure and a privilege to send you our 1948 catalog of 
Gladiolus bulbs which features a variety of fine Gladiolus. 
With a prosperous year just past, we want to thank our customers for their 
many letters of appreciation and thanks. We value your friendship and sincerely 
thank you for your orders received during 1947. 
Our aim is to please every customer whether the order is large or small, for 
we know there is no advertisement more important to a business than a satisfied 
customer. Each and every order is given the same consideration and attention, 
whether it is a new customer or one who has purchased from us for years. 
We are completely sold out on some varieties with orders taken at the field 
this summer, making it impossible to list them in the catalog. So if you intend to 
order any, we suggest you do so at your earliest convenience, to avoid disappoint- 
ment. 
We enjoyed the many visitors to our field this year, and found them much 
impressed by the healthiness of our stock, and found our motto to be true, 
namely:- FIRST, LAST AND ALWAYS, WE AIM TO GROW AND SELL 
GOOD CLEAN HEALTHY STOCK. 
We extend to the public, a cordial invitation to visit us at any time, whether 
it be when flowers are in bloom which is from the end of July until frost, at 
digging time, or when bulbs are in storage. We are conveniently located on 
U. S. Hwy. 51, about 7 miles south of Steven’s Point, and about 4 blocks south 
of intersection of Hwy. 51 and 54. It is the farm immediately after the curve. 
If you are traveling north on Hwy 51, it is the farm on the right hand side im- 
mediately before the curve and just before intersection of 51 and 54.
