1948 ADVANCE LIST | 
OREGON GROWN GLADIOLUS 
PRICES EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 15, 1947 
Extra Bulbs FREE with Early Orders 
With digging nearly completed and the curing and grad- 
ing of our stock well under way, we are now assured of a 
bumper crop for 1948 despite highly adverse conditions 
from the weather standpoint and continuing high costs of 
production. Increased acreage enables us not only to present 
a schedule of prices sharply reduced from last year in 
nearly all varieties, but to offer our customers an additional 
FREE DIVIDEND on early orders which cannot be dupli- 
cated anywhere under a similar TOP QUALITY, MONEY- 
BACK GUARANTEE. 
With every order from the following list received before 
January 31, 1948, we will include free of charge extra bulbs 
of our choice to the value of 25% of the order on those 
amounting to $3.00 or more; with orders of $10.00 or more 
50% of the value, and with orders of $25.00 and up ONE 
with so varied a list as ours and the inevitable future short- 
ages in some varieties we must reserve the right to decide 
which extras you are to receive, you are welcome to name 
preferences which we will endeavor to follow, subject to 
stock or other limitations. The present low prices will remain 
unchanged in our full illustrated catalog describing more 
than 100 varieties which will be ready early next year, but 
this unprecedented offer cannot be repeated on so lavish 
a scale. Remember that only orders received before January 
31 can qualify, and that your order can be held for Spring 
delivery if desired. An immediate response will secure the 
full benefit of our free extra dividend up to 100% of the 
value of your order, assuring you at the same time against 
later disappointment in obtaining the bulbs you particularly 
want. Orders scheduled for future delivery will be promptly 
acknowledged, and the bulbs reserved for shipment on the 
HUNDRED PER CENT EXTRA—exactly double! Although date specified.
