DAHLIA TRIAL GROUNDS. 



The excellent work l)eiiij; done at the 

 two trial g:roun(ls of the Aiiicrican Dah- 

 lia Society was f;iven ]iarticular men- 

 tion by President Richard Vincent, in 

 his address at the society's anmi.-il meet 

 inj; at New York last week, and he 

 iirjjed that dahlia raisers iis<' this mejiiis 

 of testin}^ out new varieties for tlie 

 l)enetit of the trade and the jmblic. In 

 this rejjard Mr. Vincent said: 



■'With two wiilely sejiarated trial 

 grounds, one in tlie north, at Storrs, 

 Conn., and one in the south, at ('ollejie 

 Park, Md., the American Djililia Society 

 iiu;j;ht to l>e wejl prepared to test the 

 urowitig qualities of any and all new 

 \-arieties of dahlias. The e\|iense 

 to ;in orifjiiiator is so sni;ill that 

 1 really do not think ;iny \;irii'ty <iuj;lit 

 to be ]iut on the market unless passerl 

 at the trial grounds. If the buyiiij; i)ub- 

 lic would only buy thi^ new varieties 

 that Iiave been passed upon by compe- 

 tent judges, there would not lie so many 

 so-called wonder.s forced u])on the grow- 

 ers. We want all the good dahlias possi- 

 ble for our patrons, both new and old, 

 and have advocated these (rial grouiuls [
