Treasure Chest 
To those who want a gorgeous garden full of glads but who don’t want to bother 
growing them under name, we offer our TREASURE CHEST. This is composed of 
good standard and new varieties, plus advanced seedlings from our trial grounds, 
of which we may have more bulbs than needed for further test. 
If the bulbs going into this mixture were bought under name they would cost 
considerably more. We could print pages of unsolicited testimonials from growers of 
our TREASURE CHEST. 4, 
You cannot buy a better mixture ay: any price.

“First of all, I want to tell you how lovely all of your bulbs turned out. It’s a 
pleasure to get your bulbs as they’re so smooth and clean, not to mention the gener- 
ous supply of extras you always send. I have been boosting for your bulbs, not only for 
quality but for price as they are the best value I’ve seen.”’ Mrs. George Foss, Minn.

“This is really the first chance I had to write to you to let you know that I 
received both orders of gladiolus bulbs in fine shape and want to thank you ever so 
much for your promptness in filling my orders and the grand lot of beautiful clean 
bulbs together with the many extras you put in gratis. 
All I can say is: A grand lot of bulbs, a grand catalog, and a grand person to do 
business with, and my assurance that you will get my gladiolus orders next year 
again, and a good word to anyone who wants the best in giads and to send their 
orders in to you.” Mr. John F. Keller, New York.

“J have raised glads for the past 35 years. I have tried some of your introduc- 
tions and think they are among the finest I have ever raised.” Rev. B. A. Olsen, Iowa.
