XI l PRESENTING THIS CATALO- 
gue I wish to thank my many friends 
of former years, and also my new friends 
of this year. 
May the new year bring health and 
prosperity to all. 
I wish also to inform all the many 
Dahlia lovers that 
MAJOR JAMES B. EASTMAN 
Laurel, Maryland 
is my Eastern representative and dis¬ 
tributor, and grows and exhibits all of 
my introductions. 
Owing to this arrangement the pub¬ 
lic may be assured that only such 
Dahlias as have proven satisfactory 
after two years trial in Major East¬ 
man’s garden will be offered, thus as¬ 
suring their adaptability to Eastern 
conditions. 
We feel fully justified in offering 
our introductions with the firm convic¬ 
tion that they will be an asset and 
attraction to any garden and will make 
a record during 1935 of which we can 
be justly proud. 
Roots may be purchased from Major 
Eastman or direct from me. 
To those who contemplate the pur¬ 
chase of Plants of these outstanding 
Dahlias it is recommended that purchas¬ 
ers living East of the Mississippi river, 
order them from Major Eastman, and 
those living West, order from me. This 
will assure delivery in the shortest pos¬ 
sible time and best condition.
