 Color, Mild Flavor, Fine Quality. Early, but Sure 

 Keeper. Heavy Cropper. Good Seller. More Ex- 

 tensively Grown than Any Other Onion. :: :: :: 



Excepting in the extreme South, where the varie- 

 ties usually grown in the North do not succeed, this 

 variety is more generally grown than any other. 

 It is popular on the market stands of every city and 

 a general favorite in every garden. It is round in 

 shape, brownish-yellow in color, and very attractive 

 in appearance. It is of medium size, very solid and 

 heavy, of excellent quality, and produces an enor- 

 mous weight per acre. It forms a bulb very early 

 in the season, so that it may be used almost all sum- 

 mer, and ripens up crisp and solid in the fall. The 

 tops die off entirely, leaving perfect-shaped bulbs 

 without neck, which possess marvelous keeping 

 qualitv. (See cut.) 



Price, 5c. pkt., 20c. oz., 50c. ' 4 ' lb., $1.75 lb., 

 5 lbs. and upward, at $1.65 lb. 



"I want you to reserve me at least ten pounds of the same lot of 

 Yellow Globe Danvers Onion as you sent me last spring. I am an 

 old onion grower, but never saw such fine results from any crop 

 before." O. H. BENNETT, Chicago. III. 



"I have raised onions for 15 years, and say with pleasure that 

 the onions I raised from your seed last year were the best I ever 

 saw." WILL H. BRONSON, St. Albans, Vt.

Henderson's '.' Large '.' rxed V Wethersfield 



is a grand red variety and a general favorite. With 

 the exception of the Yellow Globe Danvers, there is 

 no variety so largely grown. Our stock is excellent, 

 being saved from only carefully selected bulbs. The 

 cut gives an accurate idea of the shape. Our stock 

 will be found quite free from necky and misshapen 

 bulbs, and will invariably grow to a large size under 

 proper conditions. The surface color is a rich dark 

 red ; the flesh sparkling white. It is an early variety 

 to mature and a fine keeper. The flavor is good and 

 mild, admirable for boiling. (See cut.) 



Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 65c. % lb., $2.00 lb., 5 lbs. 

 and over, at $1.S0 lb. 



" / like your stock of Large Red Wethersfield Onion better than 

 any other. I feel confident when I plant, as I know it will always 

 produce a good safe crop." JAS. BEASLEY, Duluth, Minn. 



"I can get seeds right here, but I must say they are not to be com- 



i pared to yours. Your Onion Seed is excellent, the best I have ever used. 



fj I can raise double with your seed than my neighbors can with same 



amount of seed from other people. I have raised 1,400 bushels of your 



Red Wethersfield Onion to the acre." 



JAMES W. HANDLEY, Claremont, N. H.
