DAHLIAS. 
Note.— Unless otherwise specified, all Dahlias will be supplied in roots, and we believe our supply this season is ample to meet all demands. 
How- 
ever in case the demand for certain varieties exhausts our supply of roots, we will send our growing plants which should give equally good results.
