STATION ANNOUNCEMENT 
(Read Carefully) 
Again we come to your home with our 
annual Dahlia catalog of DESIRABLE 
DAHLIAS. After a very poor start in the 
spring we finished with a fine crop of good 
plump roots that should do well in any gar- 
den. However, we did not harvest a large 
crop of seeds, only enough for our own 
planting. Reports from customers in nearly 
all parts of the country compliment us on 
the quality of stock we send out. Our Introductions 
won a good share of ribbons at various shows the past 
season. NIGHT EDITOR and SILVER WEDDING won 
at several shows. 
We tried several of the new varieties this past sea- 
son with varied results. Some were good and others 
not so good. Only the varieties that have proven to 
be good under all conditions are offered in this list.

ed and fully guaranteed to be true to name, free from
