ONION SETS 
Philadelphia has long been esteemed in all sections of the country as 
headquarters for Onion Sets. In my estimation the best way to grow onions 
, is from the black seed, but still, a great many people prefer to plantsets, ¥ 
¥ which I will be pleased to furnish at the following prices: 
WHITE BOTTOM.—Grown from my best selected seed of the 
White Silver Skin or Portugal variety, which will produce White Onions 
very earlyintheseason. Pt., 20cts.; qt., 35cts.; 5qts., $1.50, by mail, postpaid. 
YELLOW BOTTOMS.—(See illustration of a tumblerful of sets taken 
from a photograph.) Pt., 20cts.; qt., 35cts.; 5qts., $1.50, by mail, postpaid. 
Above two varieties are produced fromseed. Potato, Egyptian and Mul- 
tiplier Onions do not produce seed, and can be obtained from bulbs only. 
EGYPTIAN OR PERENNIAL TREE.—When once set out, 
without having the slightest Winter protection, will come up year after year, 
assoonas frost breaks the ground, and grow very rapidly. The bottoms 
divide, making several irregular shaped onions. The young sets grow 
on top of the stalks. Pt., 30¢.; qt., 55¢.; 5 qts., $2.50, by mail, postpaid. 
POTATO ONIONS.—Small bulbs when planted increase in size, 
and the parent bulbs produce quantities of small bulbs in clusters. They 
mature early and are of a mild, pleasant flavor. Pt., 25 cts.; qt., 45 cts. 
NEW WHITE MULTIPLIER ONION.—Is enormously pro-§ 
ductive ; of pure white silvery color, very hardy and will unquestionably 
proye a great acquisition to this class of onions, for its handsome 
appeararce will make it one of the most salable varieties that can be 3 
rown; itis also very useful for pickling. White onions being usually 
igher priced than any other color, the advantage of a White Multiplying 
Onion can be readily understood. Pint, 25 cents; quart, 45 cents
