1916 SEEDING DAHLIAS. Mr. Chas. L. Mastick, of Portland, 
Ore., is a Dahlia enthusiast, having over three hundred of the 
choicest foreign and American varieties. His hobby is to produce new 
and beautiful flowers by hybridization, his success being phenomenal. 
At the t915 National Dahlia Association’s exhibition his seedlings, 
which included two fragrant species, received the grand sweepstakes, 
and each seedling he exhibited was awarded a blue ribbon. I offer 
twelve seeds of his 1915 experiments for $2.00; same will bloom in 
9x6 if cultural directions are followed. Each seed you receive will 
be from a different hybridization. Order now, as I have but a limi-
