 State, called Ebenezer, hy a sect akin to the Shakers, who kept it unknown to out- 

 siders all these years, often selling- it, among themselves, as high as $1.00 per ounce.

 locality Ebenezer Onion is grown chiefly for sets, which are planted the next season 

 for bunching and large onions. Supply of seed limited. Price, perpkt., 15c; per 

 oz., $1.00.

 How We Pack Sets for Shipping 



Mr. Wm, K. Du Bell, of White Hor?e, Yukon Territory, Canada, February 24, 1907, writes: "Be careful to wrap these 

 sets in plenty of good strong paper, very securely tied, and mark ' Perishable,' as they have to be staged 400 miles through a 

 temperature of 20° below zero. Your last year's sets arrived in splendid shape, and did me more good than five times the 

 same amount did from San Francisco."
