Wiahlias for Gorgeous Flowers 
On orders of six or more Dahlias we will allow 5% 
reduction in price. All postpaid. 
Culture: Pick a sunny spot if possible and spade 
well. Do not use too much manure, for a small quan- 
tity goes far with the Dahlia. Then lay the root on 
its side about 4 inches from the surface. In covering, 
be sure to have the soil packed firmly about the 
tuber or roots; plant only when the soil is dry, then 
water sparingly.
