DTiiontEED 



There is no vegetable in which the quality of the seed exerts a greater influence upon the crop than 

 in onions. Our stock is all grown from choice bulbs, selected by hand, and is unsurpassed in this 

 country. During our whole business career as seedsmen, it has always been our aim to make quality a 

 first consideration, price afterwards, and in no one crop have we met with greater reward for our efforts 

 than in onions, the demand for our seed having increased so rapidly that we have been obliged to 

 largely increase our facilities for growing every year for several years past. 



One ounce will sow one hundred feet of drill. To grow large onions' from seed, five pounds to the 

 acre ; to grow small sets, fifty to sixty pounds to the acre are required. For full information for culture, 

 storage and marketing onions and onion sets, see our New Leatlet=Essays on this subject, which will 

 be sent free with all orders for onion seed, when requested.

Wm. D. Robinson, Fairport, N. Y., Aug. 1, 1904, writes: 

 " The purest and finest strain of Yellow Onion ever raised in 

 this county is your Philadelphia Yellow Globe Danvers. My 

 father, who has raised onions for thirty years, says he has 

 never seen so fine a stock as mine."

 "I have the finest onions in the Albany market; they are 

 from your Yellow Globe Danvers seed. These onions sur- 

 pass all others."
