GREETINGS FOR 1938 
It is with pleasure I am sending you my 1938 Dahlia Book 
and I hope you will like it. Also you will notice I have left 
out some this season for lack of stock to offer, and others I 
have discontinued. Every season I try and get the best of 
the new introductions, but some of them fail to come up to 
our expectations and disappoint us the same as you. If any 
of the plants of the new introductions fail to start a good 
growth or do well, I will be glad to replace them next 
season or give you some other variety of equal value, as 
satisfied customers are my best advertisement. 
Thanking you for the fine letters I have received, also for 
recommending me to your Dahlia friends, and trusting I will 
again have the opportunity of furnishing you the Dahlias you 
intend to purchase the coming season, 
Yours respectfully, 
A. T. EDISON. 
Special Information 
All orders, large or small, will be appreciated, and if you 
send in the names of five or more of your Dahlia friends 
with an order of $2.00 or more, I will add a root or plant 
of 50c or more value free to your order. Have your friends 
write a card for our catalogue if you are not sending in an 
order, and names with it. Or if you do not wish to keep our 
book and care to pass it on to some one interested, it will 
be appreciated. 
State and Federal Inspected Roots and 
Plants 
We ship roots and plants that have been inspected and all 
out of the state orders will be accompanied by a certificate 
of inspection. 
My modern King Greenhouse is fully equippped to grow 
plants and we grow and ship them in 3x3x3 in. bands 
which hold twice as much dirt as a 3-inch pot, and it stands 
to reason they are stronger and better. 
I do not try to meet the ridiculous prices some offer plants 
at, as you get what you pay for, always.
