She has seven rows,, ’ 40 rods long, ! Treated For Disease The bulbs were treated for a disease called “thrip” before they were planted and she hasn’t lost a single one. The land, a. rich piece of ground, was heavily fertilized and the Carters gave it careful cultivation during the summer. She. almost despaired of her venture during the backward spring but the glads are coming along well now. In fact, they have unusually.. large blooms, which the school teacher attri­ butes to the wet weather. In an exceptionally dry year, Mrs. Cartel' thinks the flowers will have to be irrigated. There are four different colors in the crop—white, cream, pink and red. The white ones produce as many as 22 florets. They’re picked when the first two or three blooms come out and the cut flowers,.if properly cared for and given fresh water daily, will last two or three weeks. Mrs. Carter expects her glads will be blooming until the end of September. Some of the flow­ ers aren’t in bud yet. She picks them three times a week, harvesting as many as 36 dozen at a time. Her husband and family, consisting of three sons and a daughter, help out, too. On weekends, daughter Mary, who works in London, helps de­ liver the blooms. They’re sold to chain markets such -as Lo­ blaws and Grand Union and local stores such as Bick’s Foodland and the Supertest garage at Clandeboye. A school teacher for 19 years, Mrs. Carter plans to continue her new-found' t hobby indefinitely. She thinks it will come in handy after she’s retired from the class­ rooms. The Carters’ sons include Car­ lyle, Douglas and Ian. 2 Answered Ad in Paper It all. started when she answer­ ed an ad in a daily paper. Two days later she had purchased 4,000 bulbs and was in the glad business. The bulbs were supplied by grocer in Byron who has guara teed a market, f— 'L~. T—— bulbs in the fall. With two and three bulbs coming from each of.the original plants, she hopes, to have at least six or ^seven thousand for sale when the sum­ mer’s over. In addition, the plants produce little bulblets, about the size of a bean which, when planted the following spring, will produce more bulbs. The energetic school teacher planted all 4,000 bulbs herself A school teacher’s fondness for growing flowers is turning into a profitable hobby. Mrs. Mervyn Carter, of Clande- boye, teacher at Hurondale school for the past nine years, is in the midst of marketing her first crop of gladioli—4,000 of them. She’s cutting 400 at a time and retailing them through city- chain stores* and district grocer­ ies, They’re going so fast she can hardly keep up to the de­ mand. “I took it on as just a hobby, being fond of flowers,” says Mrs. Carter. “I didn’t consider it from the financial standpoint.” But the hobby, which fits in well , with her summer off from teaching, looks, like it will be­ come quite profitable. ■ a . . guaran- ________ ___ _ for Mrs. Carter’s bulbs in the fall.
