OINIIIOIN SIEITIS: 



EGYPTIAN OR PERENNIAL TRUE. 



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 plant sets, 

 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 early in the season. Pt.. 25 cts.; qt., 40 cts.; 5 qts., $1.75, bv mail, postpaid. 



YELLOW BOTTOMS.— (See illustration of a tumblerful of sets taken 

 from a photograph.) Pt., 25 ets.; qt., 40 cts.; 5 qts., $1.75, by mail, postpaid. 



Above two varieties are produced from seed. Potato and Egyptian Onions 

 mentioned below, do not produce seed and can be obtained from bulbs only. 



EGYPTIAN OR PERENNIAL TREE This is an entirely 



distinct variety. When once set out, without having the slightest Winter 

 protection, it will come up, year after year, as soon as frost breaks the ground, 

 and will grow very rapidly. The bottoms divide, making several ir- ,-;^ 

 regular shaped onions. Pt., 35c; qt.,65c; 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.. 30 cts.; qt.. 50 cts.
