The Southport Globe Onions 
The Southport Onions have increased wonderfully in public favor during the last six - = SOUTHPORT. 
YELLOW GLOBE 
or seven years, and they well deserve their popularity. In almost all markets they will 
invariably bring top prices. They are not only of handsome appearance, remarkable 
solidity and good keepers, but also fully equal in yield my best strains of other varie- 
ties, 900 bushels to the acre from seed the first year being not unusual. For years I have 
taken considerable pride in all three of the Southport Onions named below, and can 
say in perfect candor that my strain of each one of these globe onions cannot be sur- 
passed, if equalled, in this country. 
44 Southport Red Globe 
Hight or nine years ago my annual sales of this onion did not exceed 500 pounds; today 
the demand runs into the thousands. In districts in New York and Ohio, I 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 my trial grounds at Briar 
Crest last season, it showed up the best of any of the Red Globes, and was the admira- 
tion of every one who took the pains to critically examine my onion trials. 
Packet, 5 cents; ounce, 15 cents; 14 pound, 50 cents; pound, $1.60. 
44s Southport White Globe 
This onion, on account of its handsome appearance, always brings top prices in the 
New York City markets. It is silvery white in color, globe shaped in form, flesh of 
delicious flavor, and a fine keeper. My strain of Southport White is equally as desir- 
able as that of the Southport Red and Yellow Globe. 
Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 25 cents; }4 pound, 75 cents; pound, $2.75. 
446 Southport Yellow Globe 
This is of the same general character as the two varieties described above, except the 
skin is a rich yellow, flesh of course being pure white, and of a mild and delicious flavor. 
It is one of the most popular of the Yellow Globe onions, and my annual sales run into 
thousands of pounds. These three varieties of Southport Globe onions I have carefully 
bred up for years, so that I am sure all my friends who entrust their orders for these 
onions to me will be highly delighted with their crop and the price they secure for 
same next fall. Bear in mind that all three of these Southport onions ripen very 
evenly, and on this account particularly are wonderful keepers. 
Packet, 5 cents; ounce, i5 cents; 4 pound, 40 cents; pound, $1.50.

Bermuda Onions 
IN NSS I believe I was the first to start the industry of growing Bermuda onions in the 
)) } State of Texas. Sixteen years ago I sold, one season, about 100 pounds of this onion 
») seed in Texas, with such success that fortunes have been made, and thousands of 
acres have been, and are today, planted in many parts of the South, especially in 
Texas. My supply is grown on the Island of Teneriffe by the very best grower of 
onion seed on the Island. It is shipped to me in tins, and is in every way the highest 
grade of seed that can be produced anywhere in the Canary Islands. All the best 
seed grown of Bermuda onion is raised on the Island of Teneriffe 
az New Crystal White Wax 
(Teneriffe Seed.) This is the large, white flat onion that has become So very popu- 
lar in the last few years in parts of the South, especially in Texas. Asa rule, there is 
not enough seed to goround. It is very early and of extremely mild and sweet flavor. 
Makes an excellent shipping onion, and does well both North and South. 
Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 40 cents; 4 pound, $1.10; pound, $4.00. 
aaa. White Bermuda 
(Teneriffe Seed.) These are the immense onions which are not only grown in Ber- 
muda to a great extent, but they are also popular in all our Southern States along the 
Gulf Coast. They are excellent for slicing, being of a very mild and sweet flavor, and 
desirable for the home garden. I know of no better strain than the seed I offer. 
Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 30 cents; 14 pound, 85 cents; pound, $3.00.
