Bulblets  $3.00  per  quart.  Another  year’s  experience  has  proven  this  to  be  the  best  all- 
around  florist’s  flower;  the  best  selling  Gladiolus  on  the  market,  extra  early,  very  large 
flower,  strong  grower  and  blooms  fine  from  small  bulbs;  a sure  money-maker.  I again  have 
a very  large  stock  of  this  variety  and  will  be  pleased  to  quote  special  prices  on  large  lots. 

PRIMULINUS: — All  who  grow  “Glads”  for  cut  flowers  should  try  these;  they  come  in  all 
shades  of  pink  and  yellow,  are  extremely  early  and  all  sizes  produce  fine  and  very  graceful 
spikes;  prices  as  above. 

FLORIST’S  FANCY  MIXED — for  a number  of  years  this  has  been  giving  splendid  satisfaction; 
it  is  made  up  of  choice  named  varieties  and  some  fine  seedlings  of  my  own  crossing.  A few 
thousand  to  spare  at  $15.00  per  1,000  for  No.  1,  and  $12.00  for  No.  2. 

I wish  to  thank  my  many  customers  for  the  fine  business  they  have  given  me  and  the  good 
words  they  have  spoken  for  the  products  of  “Evergreen  Farm,”
