. The dahlia; a practical treatise on its habits, characteristics, cultivation and history . roadcasting and plowing or spading in agood coat of well rotted manure. Too much stress cannot be placed upon the thorough prepa-ration of the soil, as it not only allows the roots to go down deep after the moisture more readilyduring dry weather, but affords good drainage during excessive rains. Having prepared the soilas above, mark out rows four feet apart and six to eight inches deep, and plant the roots fromeighteen inches to three feet apart in the row, according as you wish a solid row or specimenplants. If perfectly symmetrical specimen plants are wanted, they should be planted at least fourfeet apart each way, which allows plenty of room for the circulation of air between the planf^and a larger surface from which they can draw nourishment and moisture. SINGLE STEM BRANCHING SYSTEM. Before covering the roots, spread a small shovelful of well rotted manure in each spacebetween the roots, and a small handful of fertilizer to two spaces, taking care that the manure THE DAHLIA. 25.

This done, cover the rows with plow, hoeor any other convenient method. As soon as the shoots appear, remove all but the strongest oneand pinch that one off, thus forcing it to branch at the surface of the ground. By this methodthe entire strength of the root and the soil is concentrated on the one shoot, causing it to growvigorously; while the pinching or cutting back of the shoot not only causes it to branch at thesurface and thus brace it against all storms without staking, but also removes all of those firstimperfect, short-stemmed flov/ers that appear on some varieties. (See cut, page 25, showinghow the plants branch, also illustration of field of Dahlias, page 6, grown under this systemwithout staking.) I am, I think, the
