Dear Mr. Zant: 
Enclosed you will find two pictures of Dahlias pur¬ 
chased from you last spring, California Idol was 11 inches 
across and Lord of Autumn 12% inches. America’s Sweet¬ 
heart was also very good, 12 inches across. When you send 
out your catalogs, kindly send me a few extra as I want to 
give them to some dahlia friends. 
Very truly yours, 
MR. J. DORMAN.
