Our Finest Crop 
Grown In Oregon 
Since 1917 
We are proud to announce that we have 
completed installation of the very lat- 
est air conditioning system in our bulb 
warehouse. Even with the extremely 
wet harvesting seasonthat we have just 
been through, we were able to process 
our crop so that it looks like each bulb 
was hand polished. Every 20 minutes, 
the air is completely renewed in our 
storage rooms with the temperature 
thermostatically controlled. If you are 
in Portland inthe near future, we would 
be pleased to show you around. 
Hand Planted and 
Harvested 
We exercise the greatest care to see 
that only first quality stock is shipped 
out; but in keeping with trade customs, 
we cannot guarantee the growth or pro- 
ductiveness of the bulbs due to the 
varying soil and climatic conditions. 
Our 21 acres of Gladiolus are hand 
planted, hand harvested, hand cleaned 
and counted. They are not mutilated 
and bruised by machinery. This is your 
assurance of first quality bulbs. 
Prompt ordering is advisable, as there 
seems to be a strong demand for the 
many real good cut-flower varieties that 
are listed here in our catalog at such 
reasonable prices.

Many of our customers are delighted 
with the extras in the form of over- 
count and newer kinds that we include 
for trial; and if you send us the names 
and addresses of friends that grow 500 
or more Glads—well, we just try to 
outdo ourselves in giving extras. 
All orders are sold with the understanding that the shipping 
charges will be paid by the customer. That means F.O.B. Portland, Oregon, except pool car ship- 
ments which are prepaid to Chicago or Trenton, N.J. 
A service charge of 35 cents will be charged on all orders of less than $3.00, as they cannot be 
filled and shipped at a profit.

long delays. Auto freight has proven very satis- 
factory for Pacific Coast and Texas orders of 100 
lbs. or more.
