DAHLIAS 
Dahlia bulbs are ready for shipment about March 1. 
Order Early You may include them in your order for seeds and 
they will be sent when ready. We do not advise ordering these after 
May 15. 
Our offerings of Dahlias are only those varieties which we have 
found to be entirely satisfactory to planters in general. There are 
hundreds of worthless varieties with which the amateur is not familiar, 
and would consequently have more difficulty in choosing properly if 
they were included among the listings. 
: A bulletin on Dahlia Culture will be mailed free 
: Dahlia Culture upon request and will be included with each 
order of Dahlias. 
You will find that the following Dahlias are most satisfactory va- 
rieties both for garden display and cut flowers.
