RED AND WHITE ONIONS 



654 Southport White Globe 



Southport White Globe produces large, globular bulbs from 

 seed the first year and is one of the standard varieties used. The 

 bulb is crystal-white, very finely shaped and has a firm, fine- 

 grained flesh. It is quite mild in flavor and is more attractive 

 than most varieties for table use. The globe is flattened at the 

 shoulder and slightly rounded at the base. It is one of the better 

 shippers and will keep longer than the Bermuda Onions. Pkt. 

 10 cts., oz. 40 cts., Vilb. $1.25, lb. $4. 



656 White Silverskin, or Portugal 



This variety is larger and more flattened in shape than the 

 Southport. It produces a bulb of medium size, mild flavor, and 

 with an especially clear white skin. It is quite popular among 

 growers of Onion sets, as it produces a very nice-sized, uniformly 

 shaped set. To preserve the pure white effect, care must be taken 

 not to expose the bulbs to the sun, and they should be covered 

 with soil. Pkt. 10 Cts., oz. 40 cts., y^\\). $1.25, lb. $4.

MUSTARD 



500 Southern Giant Curled 



For southern planting during the fall, winter and spring months. Mustard is in quite large demand. Northern markets seem to be 

 able to take care of large quantities of it. It is used either as a fresh salad or for garnishing. By successive plantings of the seed every 

 few weeks a continuous supply may be obtained. The Southern Giant Curled is the most important variety and is the true curled-Ieaf 

 sort, its leaves being light green in color and crumpled and frilled at the edges. This variety is rather spreading in its growth. For 

 northern use sow the seed as early in the spring as the ground will permit, and the plants will continue to yield until after frost if 

 they are kept cut. The stock offered here is the true curled sort and is highly recommended. One ounce will sow about 75 feet of drill.

501 Brown 



A black-seeded variety that produces vigorous stalks and beautiful dark green foliage. It is more pungent in flavor than most of 

 the other sorts offered by seedsmen. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., Vilb. 30 cts., lb. $1. 



630 OKRA, Perkins Long Pod 



_ This vegetable is becoming more popular each year and at this time is quite extensively grown in some sections. Especially is 

 this true in the South, where large areas are devoted exclusively to its cultivation. The pods are long and narrow. These fruit-pods 

 are used in soups, catsups and similar preparations. The glucose material in the wall of the seed-cells gives body to the soup. 

 Another very extensive use is in canning tomatoes and other vegetables. It may also be dried and canned separately for winter use.
