June 16th 1925.

Mess W. Atlee Burpee,
Phila, Pa.

Dear sirs:

My experience in growing Gladiola from Burpee seed - Fordhook Hybrids - has been so interesting and pleasurable, that I have been tempted to recount it. I hope it will prove equally interesting to those who may read it. 

sincerely yours,
C.C. Straughn, M.D.
