REGARDING DATE OF SHIPMENT 
Roots may be ordered at any time and will be shipped at any 
date desired by the customer. However, it is advisable to have 
them sent not too long before the time for planting, as no Dahlia 
grower can be responsible for any loss which may occur on ac- 
count of spoiling or drying out of roots which are in the cus- 
tomers’ hands for a month or so before planting. And where 
early orders are used for forcing for the purpose of making cut- 
tings to plant, there is no guarantee against rotting of the roots 
in this process. In sections where the spring is backward and 
the ground is still cold and wet in May, it is advised to keep 
the roots in the peat moss in which they are packed, and they 
will sprout nicely with hardly any attention, so when the ground 
is warmed up the new plant will have a better start than if it 
had been put in the ground earlier. Parcel post charges are all 
paid by me, and express charges on large shipments, but where 
small orders are wanted sent during weather when freezing might 
occur in transit, the shipment will be made express, charges 
collect.
