Dahlias are as easily raised from seed as sun-flowers, 

 and one often gets unique and beautiful sorts, in this way. 

 They bloom the first year, beginning in midsummer, and 

 continue until frost. Price each per pkt., 5c; 3 pkts., 12c.

 petals around the disc, like a frill or collar. Mixed. Pkt., 

 20 seeds.
