To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In the barns they naturally assume that the grower has kindly put up a good store for them. But by traps and cats and poison and wonderful Dutch orderliness they are kept under. In a bulb barn at night one hears few of the mysterious rustlings and patterings that make an English barn suggestive of hid but active life. There is one other thing to be guarded against in some few barns, that is frost. Not in the generality, of course, the ones where are accumu- lated the ordinary bulbs of the trade... ; but in the ones where there are stored things for spring planting, such as gladioli, begonias, hemerocallis, dahlias, and other and choicer bulbs and tubers, HYACINTH FLOWERS GOING TO MARKET BULB BARNS, NAMES, AND GROWERS 113 the frost is a very important consideration. Some barns are very carefully protected against frost ; some I know are carefully and systematically warmed during the winter months, and never, winter and summer, is the range of buildings empty. Standing in one of these, a curious thought comes ; one realises, as one looks at the crowded shelves and remembers those of other barns beyond, that, could some cataclysm destroy the ornamental flora of the world, but leave un- touched this range of barns with their contents (as Noah's ark in the Deluge), there would still be a good start for repeopling the world with flowers.
