MARSHALL’S Matchless DAHLIAS 
Our list of Dahlias has been reduced to those that we consider the finest varieties. 
Older varieties, which have been superseded 
by later introductions of similar color, have been dropped, and it will be noticed that many of the expensive varieties of previous years 
are now available at attractive prices.
