On the High street side of the Court street bed are Miranda and Pink Perfection; on the Court house side, Peace and Mrs. Frank Pendleton, and on the ends Prim- ulner's Hybirds. The latter is a ocmparatively new race of gladi oli, which, with its daintiness of flower and range of pastel shades. will make a strong bid for popular ravor in the next few years. This planting is from the stock of Mad ison Cooper, editor of The Flower Grower, and has received first la its class wherever shown. Other recent introductions are Red Emperor, a truly regal bloom. and Mrs. Watt, a pronounced wine color, and a gladiolus of much merit. Such varieties as Loveli ness, Pink Perfection and Mrs. Frank Pendleton are funning true to the form that made them fav orites. To correct any nosible misun derstanding, I wish ,to say that the beds as they now stand are the product of the enterprise of the Salem Floral society. The bulbs were bought of Dibble Franklin, who co-operate in planting and caring for them. W. C. DIBBLE. . 4 BUS tUH BREAKFAST I , uch interest In the stati- fair.
