To Out Customers 
and Friends 
We are pleased to offer you this year, a care¬ 
fully chosen selection of new, and very new, fine 
Dahlias, for your consideration. This selection 
comprises what we think to be the choicest new 
novelties to be had, and from every Dahlia pro¬ 
ducing country in the world. 
It is our purpose that you may select here 
novelties which can win,—from the very largest 
to the smallest, in every type, class, and color, 
with some exclusive novelties not to be found 
elsewhere. 
Realizing the importance of strong, clean 
stock, for propogating purposes, we always pur¬ 
chase the very best, and prefer to pay the price, 
rather than shop around and risk the results 
for our customers and for ourselves. 
We offer here plants only of our own grow¬ 
ing, all base cuttings, with a view to your getting 
the best possible results. 
With best wishes for your success this 
season, we are, 
Very truly yours, 
MAD RIVER GARDENS
