 posed sod or garden soil and one part cow- 

 manure, well rotted. Add one pint each of 

 bone meal and wood-ashes to each bushel of 

 compost and mix well. Plant young plants in 

 two rows, S or 10 inches apart; train to sin- 

 gle stem and stake. Place the box In sunny 

 position; water as needed. Disbud, leaving

Dahlias 



ikes 



other outdoor-grown flower. Immense bloom 

 can be had from our improved varieties, 

 which in size, beauty and style rival the 

 finest house-grown, single-stem chrysanthe- 

 mums. We have a maguificent collection of 

 the best sorts grown. 



The Dahlia is of the easiest possible cul- 

 ture. Plant in good soil in the full sunlight, 

 and keep the ground well worked or mulched, 

 and you will be repaid by showers of bloom. 

 When the frost kills the tops, lift the roots 

 and place in any cellar where they will not 

 freeze. I offer strong, pot-grown plants that 

 will bloom early and continuously, and be 

 far more satisfactory than roots, which I do 

 not sell.
