 Lake county. 



C. G. Morse & Co. have issued a nevf 

 dahlia catalogue in which about 500 

 varieties are listed. A feature of the 

 new catalogue is the listing of the 

 dahlias according to types — one page 

 containing a list of all the dahlias of 

 a certain type and the opposite page 

 showing a distinctive flower of that 

 type. 



John and Joseph Picetti, salesmen in 

 the floral department of the Emporium, 

 whose names appeared in the draft, 

 have enlisted and are awaiting a call 

 to the front.

 drafted and has left for American Lake,
