HAatlawella GLADIOLUS 
Hallawell Gladiolus bulbs are the best you can buy. Most of them are at least 2 inches in 
diameter and many are very much larger.* They will grow fine tall spikes of beautiful flowers 
you'll be proud to have in your garden. 
* The usual trade practice of measuring gladi- 
olus bulbs is by diameter, not circumference 
or “around” which is misleading.

NOTES ON GLADIOLUS CULTURE 
Gladiolus are easy to grow. They give best 
results in rich soil, a sunny location and a 
good deep irrigation once every week or 10 
days. Dig in some fertilizer at time of plant- 
ing and another application on the surface 
when they are a foot high. 
IMPORTANT—To prevent thrips on gladiolis 
begin spraying when the plants are 6 inches 
high and again every 10 days until the flower 
buds begin to show color. We suggest DURA 
DUST No. 50 which is 50% wettable DDT. In 
addition to thrip prevention Dura Dust is also 
very effective in the control of cutworms, ear- 
wigs, sow bugs, ants, etc., and for codling 
moth on apples and pears. 
1 Ib. pkg. $1.00 ($1.25 packed and postpaid) 
When you cut gladiolus leave some of the 
foliage io store food for the next year. When 
the foliage is yellowed, dig and store the bulbs 
in a dry place and dust them with Gladiolus 
Dust. 2 oz. pkg. 30c, postpaid. 
This is a DDT Dust which prevents insect in- 
festation during the storage period.
