DAHLIAS 
O UR Collection of Dahlias will he found to contain the very best and latest introductions of merit—not only 
from a novelty standpoint, but from a commercial point of view. No time or money has been spared 
in testing all standard and new varieties to eliminate those without distinctive merit to recommend them. 
The renewed popularity of the Dahlia in recent years has brought out many new sorts both in this country 
and Europe, and anyone wishing to get the cream will find most of them in our collection which can be 
recommended either for growing in competition or for market purposes, and embrace all classifications.
