 than any other white variety, and is also largely used for 

 pickles when sown three or four times as thick as usual.

fl^DERsorvs " PRIZETAKER " ONION 



Has now been several years on the market and 

 is recognized as one of our best standard varieties. 

 Karely has any vegetable attained prominence 

 more rapidly. Nothing short of actual knowledge 

 of this variety will convey a really adequate idea 

 of its great value, whether considered as a variety 

 for commercial or private culture. Its immense 

 size will recommend it to all, particularly when it 

 is known that its keeping qualities are unexcelled. 

 The exterior color is pale yellow, and the interior 

 clear sparkling white. It is easily grown, medium 

 early in maturing, mild in flavor. By sowing 

 early in a sheltered spot and transplanting the 

 young plants, it can be grown to an immense size. 



PRICE, 10c. per pkt., 25c. per oz., 70c. per 

 34 lb., $1.90 per lb., 5 lbs. and upward, $1.80

FROM OUR ENTHUSIASTIC CUSTOnERS ABOUT 

 OUR "PRIZETAKER" ONIONS. 



"'Prizetaker' Onion is the greatest and best Onion that 

 ever was raised. I raised one last year that was over 14 

 inches around it." J. M. Gregory, Sunderland, Vt. 



"Last spring I purchased Yt lb. ' Prizetaker' Onion seed 

 from you, and planted one-sixth ot an aere and raised l*o 

 bushels." L. E. Beunson, Plymouth, Mich. 



" The ' Prizetaker' Onion seed produced a wonderful crop. 

 The season here was very dry and yet some of the ( >nions 

 measured 1V<2 inches in circumference. The warm fall 

 caused all other varieties to sprout and grow more or less, 

 but, the 'Prizetaker' has not yet shown a green sprout. 

 Mild in flavor, of large size and a good keeper, it surely is 

 a perfect vegetable." Hiram College, Hiram, Ohio. 



"I wish to say the ' Prizetaker' Onion seed is all that is 

 claimed for it. I was greatly pleased with it." 



J. R. Berry. Gloversville, X. Y.
