ANY OTHER COLOR (“A.0.C.”) (90-91). CHARTREUSE always 
gets a lot of attention whenever a spike of it is exhibited. SOUTH SEAS 
excels with its typical show spike; VANISLE is one for the fancier. 
CHEROKEE and COPPER BRONZE are a little alike in general color 
effect, at. least at a distance. VOO-DUN-IT is very odd and different. PEL- 
LETIER D’OISY is an oldie, but is exceeded in novelty only by its seedling, 
the new BAMBI. Butterfly-like FLAIR is a mixture of colors that makes 
it hard to properly classify or describe. 
The originator of SNOW. 
DRIFT, our good friend and 
competitor Carl Fischer, holds 
an armload of that variety which 
won for the famed Schrimpf 
brothers the 3-spike Grand 
Championship of the Central In- 
ternational show at Rochester, 
Minnesota last August. We be- 
lieve that the Schrimpf twins, 
Marvin (left) and Melvin 
(right), who live on a dairy 
farm near Bay City, Wisconsin, 
have an almost unbeatable com- 
bination in their dairy cattle and 
gladiolus. We don’t know whether 
the glads help the cows any, 
but we’re pretty sure that the 
cows benefit the glads. 
N. H. Lines, left, and Yours 
Truly pose at the Methodist 
parsonage in Middleton, Idaho 
where Rev. Lines is pastor. The 
“implement” the Reverend is 
holding is his own invention—the 
smoothest little weeding hoe we 
have ever seen. We use it around 
the seed beds, trial patch, peren- 
nial border, and wherever we 
can’t easily get in to work with 
the tractor. It’s a real time and 
labor saver in any glad garden. 
The sharp, narrow blade gets 
those small weeds with very little 
effort—you don’t have to get 
down on your knees to use this 
weeder. Send $2.50 direct to Rev. 
Lines at Middleton, Idaho, and 
your weeding hoe will be sent 
postpaid; satisfaction guaranteed.
