THE GREATEST RED ONION EVER PRODUCED 



THE ONION BARGAIN OP THE YEAR 



One of the chief departments of my seed growing biisl- 

 ness consists ol growing Buckbee's Pedigree Red Wethers- 

 fleld Onion for seed piirposes only. My stock has reached 

 such a, high point of merit that it is a household word every- 

 where that "Buckbee's Pedigree Eed Wethersfield Onion 

 Seed Is the most reliable and produces more good marketable 

 Onions per acre than any other ofiered." And, from the 

 many thousands of unsohcited testimomals which I have 

 received from all over the covmtry, I have every reason to 

 beUeve that the time which I personally spend in my Onion 

 flelds is truly appreciated by my many thoixsands of custo- 

 mers who stand by me and say: "Buckbee's Seeds Are Full 

 of Life." 



There are many strains of this justly celebrated onion offered, 

 but I venture to say none that can surpass Buckbee's Prize Medal 

 Stock of this famous variety. The vanous strains, good, bad 

 and indifferent, that are generally offered the unwary planter, come 

 to maturity all the way from August up until as late as October. 

 This unreliability of cropping is very disastrous to most localities. 



GREATEST OF ALL RED ONIONS 



The seed which I am offering is of the earliest form, grown from 

 hand-sorted bulbs that will produce very large Onions of immense 

 size- li to 2^pound Onions from seed the first year are of frequent 

 occurrence. Buckbee's Bed Wethersfield grows with unusual 

 regularity, scallions being unknown. It is a magnificent keeper. 

 An enormous cropper. 700 to 1,000 bushels have frequently been 

 raised upon a single acre. I have received many letters from rny 

 customers stating their yields to be over 1,000 bushels per acre the 

 past season. The shape is accurately shown in the illustration above. 

 In color the skin is a deep rich, purplish red, while the fiesh is a 

 beautiful white, finely grained and of good flavor. My customers 



NEVER HAS BEEN KNOWN TO FAIL 



T tni<it no Onion newer who receives my catalogue will fail to try at least a small quantity of Buckbee's Eed Wethersfield Onion* 

 for all oueht to know how much superior it is to other strains offered. This seed vnU produce highly rich-colored, long-keepmg Onions, 

 sure to command the highest price in the market. Will yield double the amount of any other seed you can secure. 



My own growth, choloest northern grown, high-grade pedigree stock seed. Pkt. 4c.; oz. 12o.; 2 oz. Sic; >4Ib.40c.; 

 H lb. 76c.; lb. $1.40. 



throughout the country endorse it as the best Red Onion they havs 

 grown. 



The best is what I find my ctistomers alwaj^ want, and that is 

 what they get by sending direct to Buckbee — the Best Onion 

 Seed on Earth. New customers should remember that Buckbee's 

 Reliable Onion Seed is only grown from carefully hand-sorted and 

 selected bulbs, is alwaj-s of high germinating quality, and of tm- 

 usual -i-igor of growth by reason of its superlative vitahty. My 

 Onion Seed has a reputation in everj* prominent Onion-growing dis- 

 trict in America of being the best, unsurpassed by that of any other 

 iiouse in the trade. 



CHEAP ONION SEED EXPENSIVE 

 (Even as a Gift.) 



The country is flooded with cheap Onion seed, but I am satisfied 

 , that fresh high-grade pedigree Onion seed of the past season's crop 

 cannot be purchased at lower prices than quoted in this book. The 

 figures given herewith are the lowest prices I will likelj' be able to 

 quote for many years to come. Bear in mind, good, sound, plump 

 seed has always been one of my greatest specialties, and that more 

 than 100.000 onion growers look to me annually for their supply of 

 seed. The risk is too great to take chances on cheap, poor seed. 

 Get the best, and remember that cheap onion seed is the poorest in- 

 vestment in the world. The failure can never be known until an 

 entire season's labor and outlay are lost. Buckbee's Onion Seed is 

 "Full of Life" and will give you the best results.
