Our Contribution to the Fight Against Inflation 
From the time of our entrance into the Commercial Dahlia 
business in 1931 it has always been our policy to sell only the 
highest quality Dahlia roots we know how to produce, and at the 
lowest possible price such stock could be offered. That this way 
of doing business is approved by the Dahlia growing public is 
shown by the hundreds of customers who return year after year 
for their stock to the Miller Dahlia Farms, and the steady growth 
of the demand from their friends and neighbors. 
In the present period of war time conditions, it has been im- 
possible to enlarge the planting to keep up with the increasing 
demand, and it is a matter of most sincere regret that so many 
good customers were unable to have their orders filled last season. 
It is probable that the same condition will obtain this season, al- 
though every effort has been made to list only those varieties of 
which sufficient stock is on hand to take care of most orders. The 
advice and example of some other Dahlia growers to increase the 
prices and thus cash in on the easy profits possible, has not been 
followed. Instead more efficient methods have been worked out, 
and economies studied, such as using waste cardboard containers 
for shipping and waste paper for wrapping, etc. 
In the case of some varieties our prices after figuring the 
quantity discount, are less than the wholesale prices of the cut 
flower Dahlia growers, to whom the sale of roots is a secondary 
consideration. Thinking a fair distribution to as many customers 
as possible is better than having to disappoint most of them on 
these varieties, the right to limit the number of roots of any one 
variety to a single order is reserved. Thus a limit of five roots to 
a customer of Jane Cowl, Jerseys Beauty and Satan seems equit- 
able. It is hoped it will not be necessary to limit any of the other 
varieties. 
Unless otherwise instructed on your order, all items will be sup- 
plied to the limit of stock unsold at the time and subject to the 
above limitations. A refund will be made in case any portion of 
your order cannot be filled. Regardless of labor shortage, rising 
costs and the other problems all business has had to face in this 
period, our customers, new as well as old, may be assured that no 
effort has been spared in the culture of the Dahlia stock offered, 
and the low prices in no way indicate that the stock is anything 
but—“THE HIGHEST QUALITY DAHLIA ROOTS OBTAIN- 
ABLE!”
