Last year -DaMias attracted more attention than ever 
before,, so this year we are making our stock more com- 
plete ih^^ll the ne^ and standard varieties. All the vari- 
eties listed here are the outcome of our own experience 
in what we consider the freest flowering and those which 
can De depended on to give a succession of choice flowers 
in the garden. Owing to our stock being exhausted in the 
latter part of the season we supply in their place good, 
strong 4-inch plants. Most people prefer these to the 
dormant roots. 
CULTURE. 
Should be planted in a well drained position and where 
they will receive the greatest amount of sun during the 
day. The soil should be made loose and a liberal amount 
of fertilizer added before planting. Well decayed stable 
manure is very satisfactory as a fertilizer. Do not set 
out plants until all danger of frost is over. This should 
he specially noted in the case of potted plants. Dahlias 
should be lifted immediately after the first killing frost 
and stored in a cool place over winter.
