A Contest Photo Showing the Vigor of 
ZAJSTS Roots and Plants 
We don’t grow them this way ourselves as we grow 
from 4 to 8 stalks by taking the center out when plants 
are from 8 to 12 inches high. The only way to get long 
stems and mammoth blooms. 
This photo received honorable mention in our contest. 
Sent in by Mr. W. F. Reime, Belleville, Ill., way down in 
southwestern Illinois, and that country was hot and dry 
in 1934. 
See Mr. Reime’s letter on page 29. Award same as 
3rd prize. 
Do You Like Zant’s Dahlia Book 
for 1935? 
In preparing this 1935 edition of our catalog we have 
tried to present more than just a list of varieties and 
prices. We believe our Dahlia friends appreciate accurate 
detailed descriptions, attractively arranged, and easy to 
read. All this labor and expense are justified if the 
readers find the book useful. Write us how you like the 
book, also offering any suggestions for improvement in 
style or size. As a token of our appreciation we will award 
a Root, Sultan of Hillcrest, value $7.50, for the best letter 
received by May 15th, 1935. 
Winner in 1934 was A. G. Opinsky, New Kensington, Pa.
