DIP-~From whom ever you get your Bulbs--dip them for 6 hours in a solution of 1 
tablespoon of Lysol mixed well in one gallon water--plant while wet~+-if 
you permit them to dry the water evaporating will cause the Lysol to dry ; 
in concentrated form and injure the Bulbs, 
SPRAY your glads weekly when in 3rd leaf to kill thrip. 2 ounces Tarter Emitic, 
6 of. Brown sugar, mix well in 3 gallons water, 
STORING YOUR BULBS-~-soon as bulbs are dry and cleaned (2 weeks after digging) dust 
them very lightly with powdered Sulyhur--in addition we also dust them 
lightly with 5% DDT dust,’ The sulphur is a fungicide and will help pre- 
vent mold--the DDT is xn insecticide and will destroy thrips--in small 
lots under 1000 bulbs another splendid method is to put a gallon of 
Bulbs in a paper bag with a teaspoon full of napthalene, Tie the top of 
the bag tightly for 4 to 6 weeks, then open and spread out, If you use 
boxes, then they should be covered tightly with canvas or something to 
hold in the fumes which is what kills the thrip.
