BUCKBEE'S NEW GOLDEN GLOBE DANVERS 



This is the most perfect type of the globe-shaped Onion ever offer- 

 ed. I have been years in perfecting this strain, carefully selecting 

 the most perfect type of bulbs for seed stock, so that now I have 

 an Onion entirely different from the Yellow Globe Danvers. It ripens 

 early, has a very small neck, the entire crop drying down at one time. 

 It is an immense cropper and will yield more marketable Onions to 

 the acre than any strain I am acquainted with. Trial tests have 

 shown this great variety to yield over 2,000 bushels per acre, while 

 under ordinary cultivation the past season, thousands of my customers B 

 have reported yields of 1,000 bushels per acre. Remember that I con- 

 trol the entire supply of this variety, and the Stock Seed that I offer 

 is My Own Growth. 4c; oz. 8c; 2 oz. 15c; % lb, 28c; %
