JOIN A GLADIOLUS SOCIETY 
There are gladiolus societies in nearly all localities of the country 
composed of glad fans of all degrees — from the backyard gardener with 
a few bulbs to the commercial grower with his many acres. With them 
vou may receive the benefit of their publications with the most up-to-date 
information of all kinds pertaining to gladiolus, good fellowship at their 
shows and meetings (who else can fully appreciate that 8” bloom in your 
garden?), and a chance to test your growing skill at the many gladiolus 
shows.
