unequalled 



"T"HE Prizetaker Onion is recognized 

 * as one of our best standard varie- 

 ties. Rarely lias any vegetable 

 attained prominence more rapidly; it 

 succeeds everywhere — east, west, 

 north and south — and whether grown 

 for home use or for marketing it gives 

 universal satisfaction, yielding onions 

 often 14 inches around and at the 

 rate of 1,200 to 1,500 bushels per 

 acre — often much more under excep- 

 tionally good culture. Its immense 

 size and mildness of flavor delight 

 every one. Nothing short of actual 

 knowledge of this variety will convey 

 a really adequate idea of its great 

 value, whether considered as a va- 

 riety for commercial or private 

 culture. Its immense size will recom- 

 mend it to all, particularly when it is 

 known that its keeping qualities are 

 unexcelled. The exterior color is 

 pale yellow, and the interior clear 

 sparkling white. It is easily grown, 

 medium early in maturing, mild in 

 flavor. By sowing early in a shel- 

 tered spot and transplanting the 

 young plants, it can be grown to an 

 immense size. (See cut.) Price, 10c.

 "My Prizetaker Onions took first premium at the Inter-Mountain Fair held at Boise last 

 fall. I can not speak too highly of your strain of Prizetaker. They yielded at the rate of 1,200 

 bushels to the acre, were perfect in shape and very large, many specimens 16 to IS inches in 

 circumference. I desire to compliment you for the true merit your seeds possess." 



JAMES TORRANCE. Oreana. Idaho. 

 "I raised your Prizetaker Onion last season and they were very fine and large. The smallest 

 measured lS^A inches round and many of them were 16 to 18 inches around." 



CALVIN RANDALL, Orono, Me.

 They are rightly named, for they took the first premium at our Lewis County Fair among a large 

 number of competitors." Mrs. M. M. LYMAN. Lowville. N. Y. 



"I raised your Prizetaker Onion last year and never saw anything like it. Some of them 

 weighed as much as 2}-i lbs., and then they are so mild that a baby can eat them. "

The leading White Flat Onion. For the family garden it is one of the 

 best. The bulbs attain a good size, ripening evenly; the color is a beauti- 

 ful silvery-white when cured under cover. Its shape is flat but sym- 

 metrical. For a white variety it is not only early but a good keeper. 

 For slicing and boiling it is one of the best, the flesh being mild and 

 tender. It is largely grown for pickles when sown three or four times 

 as thick as usual and is also extensively sown for sets. (See cut.)
