This onion, on account of its handsome appearance, always brings 

 top prices in tlie New York City markets. It is silvery white in color,

Southport Yellow Globe 



Is one of the most popular of the Yellow Globe onions, and our annual 

 sales run into thousands of pounds. The three varieties of Southport 

 Globe onions which we list, we have carefully bred up for years, so that 

 we are sure all our friends who entrust their orders for these onions to 

 us will be highly delighted with their crop and the price they secure for 

 same next fall. Bear in mind all three of these Southport onions ripen 

 very evenly, and on this account particularly are wonderful keepers. 

 Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 20 cts.; % pound, 60 cts.; pound, $3.35. 



444 Southport Red Globe 



In districts in New York and Ohio, we frequently ship 1,000 pounds of 

 this Red Globe onion annually. It is a perfect globe, skin being of a 

 rich glossy red; flesh fine grained, white and always mild and pleasant. 

 Like other Southport onions it is very hardy and a splendid keeper. On 

 our trial grounds at Paninure last season, it showed up the best of any 

 of the Red Globes, and was the admiration of every one who took the 

 pains to critically examine our onion trials. 



Packet, 5 cts.; ounce, 20 cts.; '^ pound, 60 cts.; pound, $3.00.

Mammoth Silver King 



We introduced this grand onion to the public over 30 years ago. The 

 skin is a beautiful, silvery white. The flesh is so sweet that it may be 

 eaten raw like an apple. No other white onion attains such mammoth 

 size. The bulbs are of an attractive shape, flattened, but thick, as 

 shown in the illustration. The average diameter of fully grown Mam- 

 moth Silver King onions is from 5 to 7},, inches. We have a record of 

 one of these onions weighing 4 pounds and 9 ounces. 



Packet, 10 cts.; ounce, 35 cts.; 14, pound, 75 cts.; pound, $3.50.

Mixed Onions 



This mixture contains a grand assortment of 

 the diS'erent colored and various shaped onions, 

 maturing at intervals, so to give a supply of 

 onions flt for the table when wanted, or for sav- 

 ing for winter use, as all are good keepers. A 

 sowing of these should be quite valuable.
