during the season between the going of 

 the asters and the coming of the chrys- 

 anthemums there is no flower that will 

 take the place of the white dahlia. The 

 colored varietios are not so much in de- 

 mand, unless for cheap decorations or 

 bouquets, but as a garden flower it has 

 few equals. 



To obtain the best results with the 

 dahlia I dig the clumps every year as 

 soon as the frost has cut them down and 

 pack them away in dry sawdust. I have 

 had much better results when treating; 

 them in this way than when I left the 

 clumps in the ground over winter, for, 

 although they will stand considerable 

 water, I always find that the tuber?? are 

 more or less rotted after an extra wet 

 winter or when they are planted in a 

 situation where the drainage is not good. 

 I replant the tubers generally about the 

 first week in March, after having divided 

 each clump in three or four parts. 



As with almost all crops, I have found 

 it a good plan to change the location 

 every season, as the dahlias are gross 

 feeders and easily exhaust the soil. It 

 does not seem to make so much differ- 

 ence whether the soil be sandy or heavy 

 loam as long as it is sufficiently fertil- 

 ized, well rotted manure being the best

material to use for this purpose. 



The clumps should not be too heaviiv 

 watered until after they have started 

 to grow and after that it does not seem 

 to be possible to give them too much 

 moisture. Keep the ground free from 

 weeds and well cultivated and the dah- 

 lia will be found to produce a good 

 paying crop. 



Unfortunately the green lady birds 

 have a great fondness for the flowers 

 and in some localities where there are no 

 cool, foggy nights in the summer it is 

 rtlmost impossible to get any perfect 

 blooms. I have tried many ways to get 



rid of the summer pest but have found 

 that Paris green seems to be the most 

 effective. I use one teaspoonful in a 

 four-gallon watering pot and sprinkle 

 the plants in the evening four successive 

 days. After that once a week will be 

 all that is necessary to keep these inse<'i.8 

 in check. It is only in some of the 

 warmer situations where there is any 

 trouble of this kind, for when the 

 dahlias are planted where they get any 

 of our ocean breezes, the destructive 

 green lady birds cannot do any harm. 

 One or two foggy nights seems to com- 

 pletely put them out of business. G.
