‘Le The heaviest yield of onions is always obtained from rich, black lands. On such soils it is 
Michigan Yellow Globe found that a globe shaped onion with a somewhat flattened base gives the largest returns 
and to meet the demands of the professional onion growers located on such lands, we have developed this variety. The bulbs 
are large, uniformly globe shaped, with small neck; shoulder usually slightly sloping, base often distinctly flattened, the largest 
diameter below the center of the bulb. The color is rich yellow with tinge of orange. The flesh is creamy white, mild and of 
very fine quality. This main crop sort ripens down evenly, keeps very well and is excellent for shipping. No onion grower 
can afford to plant inferior seed when such as this can be procured. Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 2 Oz. 50c; %4 Lb. 90c; Lb. $2.75

shoulder, ripen down very evenly, keep well and are suitable for 
shipping. The flesh is creamy white, fine grained and of mild and

° ° . ° This is a 
White Portugal or American Silverskin medium 
sized onion of mild flavor and with beautiful, clear white skin. The 
variety is a favorite with many for use when young as a salad or 
bunching onion and for pickles. It usually matures about ten days 
earlier than White Globe and is fine for fall and early winter use. 
It is an excellent medium early sort for gardeners who do not care 
to plant more than one variety. The bulbs are nearly round when 
of bunching size, somewhat flattened when mature. This is the 
best flattened white onion for northern latitudes. Pkt. 10c; Oz.

White Globe variety for the home garden. It is sometimes 
called Southport White Globe. The variety yields abundantly, pro- 
ducing medium to large, handsome and finely shaped, clear white 
bulbs. The flesh is firm, fine grained, quite mild in flavor and is 
more attractive than the colored sorts when cooked. The bulbs are 
globe-shaped, full at the shoulder, rounded at the base, keep well 
and are desirable for shipping. It is characteristic of the best 
stocks of White Globe to have many bulbs with a splash of ma-
