YELLOW ONIONS 



'{■••> 



Yellow Globe Danvers Southport Yellow Globe I 



640 Southport Yellow Globe (S. S. Golden Globe) 



This is a very hardy and exceedingly productive late or main-crop sort, growing to a uniform, deep globe-shaped onion, 3 to 

 5 inches in diameter; of a rich, golden yellow color. It is mild and juicy, with flesh creamy white, fine-grained, mild and of excellent 

 flavor. Can be marketed before reaching full size, and is a splendid keeper for late winter use on account of its great solidity. Pkt. 

 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., V 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $1.75. 



644 Mammoth Yellow 

 Prizetaker 



This is a very handsome Onion, growing almost perfectly glob- 

 ular in form, with thin skin of a bright straw-color. It grows to 

 an immense size directly from the seed, frequently measuring 

 12 to 18 inches in circumference, while under special cultivation 

 specimen bulbs have been raised to weigh three to five pounds 

 each. It makes an excellent Onion for fall and early winter use, 

 but is not so good a keeper for late winter as the Southport 

 Yellow Globe, or Yellow Globe Danvers. Notwithstanding its 

 large size, the skin is fine and silky; the flesh is pure white, very 

 crisp and delicate in flavor, rivaling, in many ways, that of 

 the well-known and popular Bermuda Onions. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 20 cts., V 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $1.75. 



650 Yellow Dutch, or Strasburg 



The bulbs of this Onion are quite large and flat, and this is 

 the variety that is almost universally used for producing the 

 best-shaped Yellow Onion sets. The skin is very light yellow 

 or straw-color; the flesh creamy white, mild and of excellent 

 quality. Ripens down quickly and keeps well. The stock we 

 offer is all superior in its uniformity of shape and evenness of 

 color, and is warranted to be true. For the market-gardener 

 this is a most desirable and profitable sort. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 

 cts., V 4 lb. 50 cts., lb. $1.50. 



642 Yellow Globe Danvers 



This is an extensively used, main-crop yellow Onion. Bulbs of 

 medium size, globe-shaped but somewhat flatter at the top than 

 the Southport strain offered above. The flesh is creamy white, 

 crisp, mild and of excellent flavor; keeps well. Has a very small 

 neck. An excellent shipping Onion. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., V^b. 

 50 cts., lb. $1.50. 



648 Round Yellow Danvers 



This is flatter in shape than the Yellow Globe Danvers; is 

 very attractive and extensively used. The skin is a light copper- 

 yellow; flesh creamy white, mild and of excellent flavor. The 

 bulbs are flattened, yet quite thick, with small necks, ripening 

 down quickly and very evenly. Some markets prefer a flat Onion 

 to a globe shape, and for such this fills the bill. Like all the 

 Danvers Onions, this is very strong in growth, and good, profitable 

 crops may be expected of it. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., V^b. 50 cts., 

 lb. $1.50.
