IT PAYS TO PLANT ONLY THE BEST, and this holds particularly strong in re- 

 gard to ONION SEEDS. We are this season in a position to supply our HIGH-GKADE 

 ONION SEEDS AT THE LOWEST PRICES SEEN IN THE LAST TEN TEAKS, 

 WHILE THE QUALITY IS ALL THAT CAN BE DESIKED. As an evidence of 

 the quality of our Onion seeds, we may mention that one grower in our vicinity produced 

 upwards of 1,100 bushels of large, solid, perfect-shaped Onions on one acre from our seed.

The Onion is most successfully grown in a deep, rich, loamy soil, and, unlike most veget 

 bles, does best when cultivated in the same ground for a succession of years. Trench ar 

 manure the ground well in fall, and turn up in ridges during the winter, and as early as ti 

 ground will work in spring, rake or harrow thoroughly so as to get the soil fine and level. Sc J" te 

 thinly in drills half an inch deep, twelve inches apart, and cover with fine soil, pressing it do% 

 with the back of a spade or light roller. Keep the ground free from weeds, and thin out t 

 young plants so they stand three or four inches apart. 



Extra Yellow Globe Danvers-In ExtraYellow Globe Danvers we have obtained an Onion 

 of the true Globe shape slightly flattened at the root end and with a very small neck; it 

 is a selection from Yellow Globe Danvers, but is an improvement in color, uniformity 

 of size and shape of bulbs and possesses longer keeping qualities than any other yellow 

 Onion. This we regard as the best strain of Onion at present on the market. Pkt., 5
