443 MAULE'S COMMERCIAL YELLOW GLOBE ONION. 



When planting your garden don't fail to plant 

 443 Maule's Commercial Yellow Globe Onion. See above. 



Maule's Commercial onion has been selected from our original Prize- 

 taker and has been bred to a size that is more merchantable. Our 

 efforts have been rewarded by securing an onion fully as handsome as 

 the Prinetaker in every way; of more uniform size, and whose keeping 

 qualities are simply remarkable and decidedly superior to the parent 

 variety. Six to eight hundred bushels per acre have been no unusual 

 yield, and this quantity has been frequently surpassed. Thirty-six 

 years ago we introduced the Prizetaker onion, and until now we have 

 not found a single vai iety that could equal, let alone surpass it in any 

 way. We take great pleasure in offering our customers Maule's Com- 

 mercial, which produces large handsome yellow globe onions in 100 days.

454 Gigantic Gibraltar 



An Extremely Large, Alild, Yellow Globe Onion. 



By far the most dependable strain of giant yellow globe onions. It 

 is somewhat similar in appearance to Prizetaker. The leaves or blades 

 are deep green, with a glossy surface, enabling it to withstand dry 

 weather and the attacks of insects. The handsome globe shape onions 

 are of light straw color,' and while large in size are splendid keepers. 

 Flesh white, tender and mild; matures in 100 days. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 30 cents; quarter pound, 85 cents; 

 pound, $3.00; 5 pounds, $13.75, postpaid. 



456 Silver Skin or White Portugal 



The Favorite Mild White Onion 



A mild and pleasant onion, of somewhat flattened shape. It is very 

 popular for family use and one of the best for pickling, also for slicing or 

 boiling. A favorite with many when young as a salad or bunching onion; 

 excellent for winter. This variety is largely grown for sets, and is re- 

 garded as a standard sort on account of it being hard and firm, maturing 

 in 90 days. Excellent variety to plant in August for early spring 

 "green" or bunching onions. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 30 cents; quarter pound, 85 cents; 

 pound, $3.00 ; 5 pounds, $13.75, postpaid. 



452 Yellow Dutch or Strasburg 



One of the Earliest Yellow Onions 



A large, dark, straw colored thin skinned onion, almost flat 

 in shape, with finegrained white flesh. Of fine keeping quality 

 which recommends it to the home as well as the market gard- 

 ener. For a yellow onion it is rather mildly flavored. A 

 standard market sort, very productive and profitable, matur- 

 ing in 100 days. An excellent winter keeper and shipper. 

 Grown extensively for large onions and sets. 



Packet, 10 cents; ounce, 15 cents; 

 quarter pound, 50 cents; pound, $1.75; 5 pounds, $8.25, postp2ud.
