SPERGON GLADIOLUS DUST 
This dust is a combination of DDT and a fungicide 
designed to combat thrips and bulb diseases. It’s the 
simplest thing in the world to apply. Just shake bulbs 
around in paper bag with a pinch of the dust, or roll 
them around in a cylindrical cereal box. This certainly 
beats the muss and fuss required to treat bulbs with > 
a liquid material, and I have found the results to be 
just as effective. Dust may be applied any time — 
when bulbs are first cleaned or in spring before plant- 
ing. I prefer the former myself since thrip-free storage 
is thus insured. Moreover, it is a great relief to get 
the bulb treating process all done in the winter so that 
when spring rolis around all you have to do is carry 
the bulbs out and plant them, 
You will note that bulbs you receive from me are 
already treated with Spergon Gladiolus Dust. I further 
recommend it to you tor the treatment of bulbs you 
already have on hand. :

BULB CLEANING PICK 
Here is a handy little gadget that will save you sore 
fingers and broken nails. it fits into the palm of the 
hand where it is suspended from an adjustable leather 
strap that goes over the back of the fingers. Prevents 
tiring of the hand since fingers do not have to be con- 
tinuously contracted as with a knife. Also permits 
freedom of both hands to handle bulbs. Metal point is 
specially bent to get leverage for prying off old bulbs, 
and blunt point makés it almost impossible to gouge 
bulbs as so often happens with a knife.
