BULBLETS. Bulblets of some varieties are hard to germi- 
nate. If the bulblets are expensive it will be to your ad- 
vantage to peel them before planting. Do not peel them 
more than a few days in advance of planting or they will 
lose moisture and become dry and hard. After planting, 
whether peeled or not, if they are kept well watered the 
per cent that will germinate and grow will be much larger. 
When giving peeled bulblets a pre-planting dip they should 
only be dipped long enough for the solution to coat them. 
When growing new introductions, planting bulblets is a 
cheaper way to get a start, however, we cannot guarantee 
their germination. Usually a big per cent of most varieties 
will germinate and grow but it pays to give the bulblets 
a little extra attention. When bulblets are ordered we will 
always select the largest ones available. 
LOCATION. All mail should be addressed to Post Office 
Box 26, New Albany, Indiana.

All stock is offered subject to prior sale. If we are out of

stitute without your permission. I will personally see that
