ONIONS.— American Grown Seed, 



All my Onion seed is American grown and first-class in every respect. It has been grown with the utmost care from choice, 

 selected, well-shaped bulbs. 



One ounce of seed will sow 100 feet of drill; 5 to 6 pounds to the acre. If to be sent by express deduct 10c per pound from 

 prices quoted. 



EXTRA SELECT YELLOW GLOBE DANVERS. The 



Yellow Globe Danvers is undoubtedly the most popular and 

 profitable of all yellow onions for market; this, my extra select 

 strain, is superior to the ordinary strain of seed by reason of 

 being grown from extra, hand-selected bulbs of true shape. It 

 is, I am convinced, the best strain on the market and will prove 

 thoroughly reliable and eminently satisfactory to all who plant 

 it. See illustration. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; ^ lb., 35c; lb., $1.25. 



EXTRA SELECT LARGE RED WETHERSFIELD. A 



choice selected strain of the popular Red Wethersfield, 

 grown from carefully selected bulbs with a view to earliness 

 and large size. It is the leading red variety, grows to a large

 and full-flavored; very productive and a splendid keeper.

 upon for best results. See illustration. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; }A 

 lb., 35c; lb., $1.25.

 onion in cultivation. It is of immense size— specimens having

 for market gardeners. Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c; 14 lb., 35c; lb., $1.25. 



SOUTHPORT LARGE YELLOW GLOBE. The onions

WHITE SILVERSKm (Whife Portugal). The leading 

 white onion; of good size, very mild, matures early, and by 

 sowing seed thickly is extensively grown for pickling, for 

 which the whiteness of its skin especially adapts it. Pkt., 10c;

 men.se size; the largest and most beautiful white onion in exist-

My Onion Sets are all Philadelphia grown, strictly 

 first-class, and may be fully relied upon to produce well- 

 shaped marketable bulbs. They should not be con- 

 founded with the cheap, poor sets grown in the South 

 and Southwest. 



WHITE MULTIPLIER. A very valuable variety, 

 enormously productive, often producing twenty bulbs from a single bulb planted, 

 of excellent quality and size for bunching green or can be ripened for use as 

 pickling onions. They will keep perfectly sound for a year. The most valuable 

 features, however, are extreme earliness and hardiness— if broken apart, trans- 

 planted in the fall, and left in the ground over winter with a slight protection, 

 they produce bunch onions very earl}^ in spring and constitute the first green 

 vegetable fit for use; valuable for market gardeners. Pkt., 20c; qt., 25c; 4 qts.,
