ODD LOTS 
SPECIAL OFFER 
In the testing of hundreds of varieties each year, 
we have considerable stock, that we feel might be 
of use to our customers, of varieties that are good 
in some sections of the country and possibly tem¬ 
peramental in others. Some like light soil, others 
heavy, and so on. Some of these dahlias you may 
have seen doing very well in your particular locality. 
Other varieties are listed here because of limited 
stock 
WHEN BUYING FROM ODD LOTS you may 
select double value. For example, when ordering 
a $1.00 variety, you may select another of equal 
value free. A $1.00 variety will not be sold for 50c.
