ALEXANDER'S DAHLIAS 



FIELD-GROWN ROOTS 



For Florists and Seedsmen 



The popularity of the Dahlia is steadily on the increase and you 

 should try these specially selected cut-flower varieties offered below: 



FRANK A. WAlrKER (New Decorative Dahlia). A charming shade of lavender-pink, 



with long stiff stems. Produces its flowers in abundance; an exceptionally early 



bloomer. Good divisions $8.00 per dozen, $16.00 per 100. 

 MADOMMA (New Peony Decorative Dahlia). A very beautiful white, very slightly 



tinted with a most delicate shade of lavender-pink. The touch of color adds greatly, 



rather than detracts from Its value, especially when made up in floral work. The form 



of the flower is perfectly original, each petal curling and twisting in a very pleas- 

 ing manner. An excellent cut-flower variety. Strong divisions $2.00 per dozen, 



$16.00 per 100. 

 MAUDE ADAMS (New Show Dahlia). A pure snowy white, very daintily overlaid and 



suffused the sweetest shade of rose-pink imaginable. It is the best of my introductions 



for florists' use. "Maude Adams" is the most proliflc Dahlia of its color, being more 



than twice as free-flowering as either "Nymphaea" or "Sylvia." It has good stems and 



is an early Dahlia to blossom, continuing throughout the entire season. It has the 



necessary features that make it stand shipping well, and makes up good in all kinds 



of work. It has already been tested out in all parts of the country, Raymond Champe 



of Michigan finding it his best commercial variety. I can furnish strong divisions at 



$3.60 per dozen, $20.00 per 100. 

 MIMA BURGLE (Decorative Dahlia). The finest scarlet Dahlia to my knowledge. Flow- 

 ers of large size, produced in quantity, on long, wiry stems, well above the foliage. 



Good dlvisiona $1.60 per dosen. $12.00 per 100. 

 VrVIAN, "White, effectively edged rose-violet; one of the largest and finest to date. 



$1.25 per dozen, $8.00 per 100. 

 STORM KING. The most reliable white Show Dahlia to my knowledge; pure white, 



flowers produced freely upon long stems, well above the foliage. $1.26 per dozen, 



$10.00 per 100, for good strong divisions. 



If you are Interested in cut-flower varieties, I will be pleased to recommend you the best varieties in the colors you want, and 

 will give your communication the benefit of my twenty-six years as a Dahlia Specialist.

eighty-five per cent of the beans should 

 prove to be vital, or if the crop should 

 be otherwise unfit for seedsman's use. 

 In other words, title was in the plaintiff 

 until it rejected the crop for either of 

 the reasons mentioned, and then, and 

 not until then, should title vest in the 

 defendant. The defendant wrote: 'In 

 case you refuse to accept the crop, its 

 title shall vest in me.' The term 'vest,' 

 as therein employed, means to descend, 

 to take effect, and the parties intended 

 clearly that upon the happening of the 

 contingency indicated, defendant would 

 acquire something which he did not 

 have before. Again, counsel urge that 

 the provision that plaintiff should pay 

 for the crop in any event is at war with 

 the motion that plaintiff was the owner. 

 The fallacy of this argument lies in the 

 assumption that plaintiff was to pay for 

 the crop. The contract docs not so pro- 

 vide. The only reference to compensa- 

 tion in the couiract is found in the pro- 

 vision for compensation for the services 

 rendered by the defendant, the amount 

 thereof to be computed upon the amount 

 of the crop produced. 



No Elements of Sale. 



"There were not i)resent any of the 

 elements of a sale so far as the seed 

 beans were concerned, not the slightest 

 indication that the title was to be trans- 

 ferred or that defendant should pay for 

 such seed. Neither was the transaction 

 a loan of the seed for use within the 

 meaning of section 5188, Revised Codes, 

 for defendant was to be rewarded for 

 the use to be made of the seed and, fur- 

 thermore, a loan for use does not trans- 

 fer title. 



"The contract is one of bailment, and
