THE GOLDEN RULE DAHLIA FARM 
This Dahlia Farm was established on a national basis thirty (30) 
years ago. The original management is still in charge, and we now 
send dahlias all over the world. 
All through our history we have sought for dahlias that are easier 
to grow and which produce blooms in spite of insects and drought. If 
a dahlia which formerly we listed does not now appear in our cata- 
logue it is because we have had trouble with that variety. It has per- 
haps failed to make good roots during drought or has been too much 
subject to stunts and insect damage. 
We specialize in dahlias that are easier to grow and bloom and 
produce the best tubers for your future years of growing. 
Get acquainted with Golden Rule Dahlias, and join the growing 
list of satisfied customers. 
Remember, WE WANT YOU TO HAVE WHAT YOU BUY.
