OOVID MOV’, 
My attention was first called to the Commercial Onion four or five 
years ago by one of the largest growers of Onions in this country, who 
told me that he had been for years selecting them from my original 
Prizetaker and breeding them down to a Size that he considered more 
merchantable. His efforts have been rewarded by securing an onion 
fully as handsome as the Prizetaker in every way; of more uniform 
size, and whose keeping qualities were simply remarkable and decid- 
edly superior to the parent variety. Six hundred bushels per acre 
have been no unusual yield, and this quantity has been frequently sur- 
passed. Twenty years ago I introduced the Prizetaker onion, and in all 
that time | have not found a single variety that could equal, let alone 
surpass it, in any way, until now. I take great pleasure in offering my 
customers Maule’s New Commercial Onion, a variety that I am satis- 
fied will prove fully as popular and equally as desirable.

May Kins Lettuce. 
The Most Popular Lettuce Today in the Markets of Berlin, 
Leipsic, Frankfort, etc. 
It has solid round heads, and will bear transportation better than 
‘ almost any other variety. For early spring planting in the open 
~ ground or under glass it is unequalled. The plants grow 6 to 7 inches 
e= in diameter; the outer leaves are so closely folded, the plant is practi- 
cally ail head. It is hardy, as well as very early, and a quick grower. 
_ Leaves are a light green, the outer leaves slightly tinged with brown, 
inner leaves a bright yellow. In flavor it is particularly rich, but- 
tery and tender. May King is certainly worthy the prominent posi- 
S tion I have given it in this catalogue.
