delving into tbe misty past, for, in-
teresting as may be to many of us
the checkeredcareer of this magnifie
cent flower, the majority are more
anxious to learn how toobtain the li
highest possibilities in its culture r s
Ave have . it to day, than what has
been.accomplished for it in the past.
The Dahlia ie a perennial and may
be grown from seed sown in the house
in. February. Ifstarted early they
will bloom the fleet year almost as
soon as .those grown from tubers.'
Plants started in the house . should he
hardened off gradually by placing out-
side on line, sunny days before plant-
ing out time comes- The Dahlia de-
velops a fat fleshy root: or rather
several of them, like so many carrots
all bunched, These are taken up in
the fall after the plant has been.killed
- _. th daway frost; eefroist fend -stored in a
by
proof cellar in sand or sawdust, ar d
planted again the following spring,
• Some varieties bloom much earlier
than others. On examining the tlib
ere it will be found that in March
many of them have sprouted. These.
do not require to be brought• out so
early. But those varieties that are
inclined to be somewhat tardy about
starting to bloom, are also rather slow
to sprout, and had better be placed in
a warm cellar where there is some
light and a temperature of about 60
degrees. ,Or they may be planted in. a
box filled with earth and allowed to
grow•thero until planting out time.
If planted in a•box. make sure of good.
drainage and keep the earth moist all.
the way through • until they have
started to grow. But be careful and
havethee rthwet or the tub -
and not a o
ers will rot. . The furnace room is.usu-
ally a good 'place in which to start'
them. But they must' not be allowed
to grow for any length'of time in a
waren room after they have once start
ed or they will grow weak aqd.flabby
and wilt over as -soon us plapted olit,
Small tubers may be started in flower
pots, which ie the better Way where
possible; and when planting out time.
comes you can turn the pit upside
down onone hand and 12.y tapping it
gently on the bottom with the other
remove • the plant :without any injury
to the roots: Of course this•is possible
only where the tubers have been di- •
vided before' started. •
Dahlia tubers are not : like .potatoes.
as many suppose which hive eyes .4
coyer,, The. eye in the Dahlia, is 'situ
sited in the -proven •immedaatelyad-
joining thp stock, and is usually im.
possible to detect until it has .sprout-
ed. Hence the trouble with commer-
cial grown tubers. They aro divided
in the fall or early winter when work
is slack in order to be ready for the
spring rush of business, and many
blind tubers are cut off or the eye left
on•the stock. A Biber without an eye,
if otherwise healthy . will throw nut
abundance of roots but that is. all. The
writer has onseveral occasions re-
ceived blind tubers of expensive
varieties,' Some dealers will replace
or refund the price paid, while others
will take no responsibility whatever.
In any event it is aggravating to find
that one must wait another year, as it
usually too late to have them replaced
before it is certain they will not -grow.
There are five distinct varieties of
thie flower. Some Dahlia .fanciers
have gone to the extreme of sub=divid-
ing this family ' into sixteen or
eighteen Classes. However we will
content ourselves with the five dis-
tinct kinds. .
Cactus Dahlia— Medium to large
size, loose, irregular form, with pet-
als long and pointed, and which, are
soixletimes incurred and twisted in a
most beautiful and artistic manner.
These are rather tate bloomers and
should be started early.

by the continual application tl cit-
tivation in the shape of the spade,
rake, hoe or whatever implement may
b used, Last summer the writer's at -
tendon was drawn to a Dahlia that
had started out very- pi o nisirg. It
grew to a fair size and after bringing'
forth one solitary flower and 'several
buds it withered and its owner said
there was something wrong with it.
'The soil had, been well fertilized at the
time of planting, and plenty of water
had since been given," he said. It was
a favorite fiower and the whole family
bad been webbing italmoatdaily from
the first leaf to the first bud, and were
feeling rather blue in anticipation of its
early demise. Would it he possible to
go and see it and suggest a remedy ? '
Time does not hang heavy on the writ-
er's hands. but the man seemed Eo
much in earnest tbata promise was gii.
en to pay a visit on the following day. ,
In the meantime visions—no night- l
mare of cutworms, stockhorers, red'
spiders and all the other hosts of the ,
enemies of this magnificent flower
loomed up in horrible panorama before 1
us, but we determined if possible to
save the plant to him. The following'
dao arrived and with it a reinembrance
of the promise given , and we repaired
to the home of so much anxiety,and at
the first glancewe saw the Louse and
also that the case was hopeless. The.
plant was dying—being cruelly done to
death. Strong language tiut none too
strong, the ground al around had
.been allowed to bake as hard as a brick
ar,d each . applteatien of water had
merely helped in the closer cementing
of the particles, of earth that had long
since become air and waterproof. No
hoe had been used, no tilling of the soil
bad been done,and the plant had slow-
ly smothered.
While theDahlia is not a'bard flower
to grow there is none that requires the
exercise of sound tudgment to a great-
er extent than this one. As before
said it can be grown in ahnost any soil
From the lightest sand to -the -h •
clay,and in almost any climate provid-
ed the 'treatment isadaP

atic conditions it will haveto meet. I
For,the purposes of this.article we will

ed within the temperate zone.

Decorative Dahlia -This is an inter-
mediate between the Cactus and the
ball shaped, being more regular than
the former, the petals being more
broad and flat. The flowers ttre of the
Inrgest size some having bloom six ip-
bhes in •dia'meter. ' They are ranch
stronger growers and bloom earlier
and more profusely than do the Cactus
types.
Show Dahlias are of medium to large
size and as rontid as a ball, with ellell-
shaped, gnilled, or imbricated petals
and are prized for their symmetrical
form and regularity*. They are usually
of solid color though seinetimes edged
darker than the ground color.
Fancy Dahlias are similar to theShow
Dahlias in form and habit, except that
they outdo almost every other flower
in their fancitul markings, beim strip-
ed, tipped, mottled . and pencilled. in
every conceivable manner.
Pompon or Boquet Dahlias are mini:',
attires of the Show and Fancy types.
They are from one or two inches in
diameter and extremely profuse bloom
ers.
The :trine for.planting Da}1liar out-
doors 'must be regulated acdurding to
locality. If dormant roots'at'`ee planted
it will take there tworor three weeks
to get through the ground so that they
may be planted almost that length of
time before dangereof frost is over;
Dahlias w'il grow an almltst any soil
but it must be made rich arid well cul-
tivated. In fact it may be laid down
as it sound principle in ell floriculture
that the thorough tilling of the soil is
indispensable to successful cultivation.
