DREER'S CHOICE: ONION SEED— continued 



Southport White Globe. (See cut. ) 

 Pure white color, and of very mild flavor, 

 also equally as good for keeping as the 

 Yellow Globe. Excellent for use as a 

 medium crop, but most valuable when 

 grown for the main crop, as the flesh is 

 remarkably firm and solid. It is an en- 

 ormous yielder, and as it is very attrac- 

 tive, always sells at high prices. It is 

 best to dry these onions in a shady place, 

 and give them plenty of air. Pkt., 10 

 cts. ; oz. , 30 cts. ; I lb. , 85 cts. ; lb. , $3- 00.

 cts.; i lb., 85 cts.; lb., |3.00.

 what strong in flavor. Pkt, 10 cts.;

 red skin Onion. Grows to full size the

Gomhaud, Fr. Gombo, Sp. Ocher, Ger. 



Culture. — This vegetable is extensively grown for its green pods, 

 which are used in soups, stews, etc., to which they impart a rich flavor, 

 and are considered nutritious. Sow the seed thickly in rich ground 

 about the middle of May, or when the ground has become warm, in 

 drills 3 feet apart, 1 inch deep, thin to 10 inches apart in drills. Cul- 

 ture otherwise much like corn. 

 Perkins' Long-pod Okra. An exceedingly handsome variety. 



The pods grow 4 or 5 inches in length, and are very tender, long, slim 



and of a beautiful deep green color. On account of size and fine
