TRUE AMERICAN GROWN, Reliable Onion 

 Seeds, that which can be trusted, is of the 

 most importance to both the grower of 

 large Onions and those who grow sets. We have 

 never 3'et placed in the hands of any Oaion grower 

 seed which did not, from first to last, give entire 

 satisfaction. We have made it a point to sell our 

 customers no Onion Seed except it be from the 

 most reliable sources possible. Our seed is grown 

 from the earliest, most evenly developed, choicest 

 bulbs, critically selected by the hand of an expert, 

 is unsurpassed, no matter what price you pa3 T . 

 There has been no branch of our business which 

 as so thoroughly rewarded us for our extreme 

 care. JUST THINK, FARMER, if you plant in- 

 ferior or poor, common, imported Onion Seed 

 (you may even be persuaded to pa^' big prices for 

 it — that is not always a protection), you have 

 thrown to the wind your time, labor, "fertilizer, 

 and the use of your LAND for one long jear, 

 without any returns. We do not ask our cus- 

 tomers fancy prices because we have reliable seed, 

 but we make our prices reasonable, so that every 

 grower can secure his entire supply of garden 

 seed from us, and have something left to provide 

 the other necessities and pleasures of life. Our 

 Reliable Onion Seed will produce large-sized and 

 fully developed Onions in one season in any sec- 

 tion of the United States; and it will produce 

 them as easily and more cheaply than from sets. 

 If our seed is pianted thickly, it will produce 

 enormous crops of finest marketable sets. 



PRIZETAKER ONION. 



kIGHT hundred to one thousand, bushels to 

 the acre, and a single specimen weighing as 

 much as 6 pounds 2 ounces, are some of the 

 things this handsome Globe Onion will produce. 

 It has a bright, clear, straw color, and invariably 

 grows a perfect globe shape. It is by far the 

 handsomest, most productive, most profitable, 

 and best of all the Yellow Globe Onions. Large

 directly from seed. It has always brought much 

 better prices than an3 r other Onion ; in market it 

 never fails to attract attention on account of its 

 beaut3' ; on the city fruit stalls it has completely 

 taken the place of the large Spanish Onions. The 

 Prizetaker Onion is gifted with strong drought- 

 resisting ability, and we consider this one of its 

 great merits. People who wish to make money 

 should plant the Prizetaker Onion ; it is admitted 

 by the most critical onion growers to be the larg- 

 est, finest flavored and most superior Yellow 

 Globe Onion under cultivation. Pkts., 5c. and
