RANDOM NOTES 
Mrs. Ravet often wishes she was as 
lucky as our gladiolus bulbs, because 
they travel all over the world. In the 
winter months we ship to all the south- 
ern states, Hawaii and the Philippines; 
in the spring we ship to all the rest of 
the states (because we have customers 
in all 48 now), Canada, Europe, and 
Australia.

We all enjoyed meeting many of you 
fine folks, either when you visited our 
farm and gladiolus fields, or at the 
gladiolus shows and the many fairs we 
attended this past summer of 1948.

Be sure to attend at least one gladio- 
lus show and take part by making en- 
tries in it. You will enjoy your glads 
that much more when you see them 
winning ribbons for you. There are 
the state shows and regional shows. 
We want to make special mention of 
a new Gladiolus Show which will be 
held Aug. 19-21, the U.P. of Michigan 
State Gladiolus Show, which is being 
sponsored by the UPPER PENINSULA 
STATE FAIR at Escanaba, Michigan.

Cut flower growers, we have had 
very good success selling all our sur- 
plus blooms by packaging them in 
cellophane and putting them in retail 
stores. If you would like any informa- 
tion on the how and so forth just drop 
us a line. We are here to help in any 
way we can.
