ORDER EARLY 
Dahlia bulbs are ready for shipment about 
March 1st. You may include them in your order 
for seeds and they will be sent when ready. We 
do not advise ordering these after May 15th. 
Our offerings of Dahlias are only those varieties 
which we have found to be entirely satisfactory to 
planters in general. There are hundreds of worth¬ 
less varieties with which the amateur is not 
familiar, and would consequently have more diffi¬ 
culty in choosing properly if they were included 
among the listings. 
ORDER BY MAIL 
City customers are reminded of the conven¬ 
ience of ordering by mail. Seeds and bulbs aie 
delivered direct to your door by the mailman 
and we pay postage.
