Rhode Island Cracker Onions. 



The Cracker Onions have had a great local reputation in Rhode Island for several years. The few 

 r^ardeners there who have been growing them, having realized large profits owing to their extreme 

 earliness and very handsome appearance on the market. For a number of years we have been trying to 

 get enough seed to offer this valuable onion to our customers, but this is the first season our supply has 

 been sufficient to catalogue them. There is no other American onion that can approach them in 

 earliness, being fully a week earlier than the well-known Extra Early Red, making them an excellent 

 sort to grow where the seasons are short. Their handsome shape is well shown in the above photograph; 

 flesh is white, of most excellent quality. They are enormous croppers and possess superior bottoming 

 qualities, whole crops being annually grown by Rhode Island gardeners, without a single scullion. Onion 

 growers try this valuable variety, as it is sure to prove a success. Order early, as supply of seed is limited.

We distributed several thousand trial pack- 

 ets of this new onion in the season of 1892, and 

 judging by the hundreds of favorable reports 

 notliing equal to it in the line of white 

 onions has ever before been grown in America. 

 In magnificent shape and enormous size it is the 

 exact counterpart of the Maiuiiiotli Prize- 

 taker, described on next page, differing only 

 in its handsome silvery white skin. An enthusi- 

 astic customer, in his report, says : "It com- 

 pletely astonished me ; there has never been an 

 onion grown in America that can hold a candle 

 to it." It will pay every onion grower to give 

 the White Prize Winner a trial. Pkt. , 15c. ;
