 the market which vary greatly in

 but for a slight depression from neck to root, is almost a perfect 

 sphere. The skin is a rich shining brownish yellow. Its keep- 

 ing qualities are excellent. It is free from neck, very solid, and 

 a fine keeper. {See engraving.) Price, oz. 40c., j| lb. $1.25,

HENDERSON'S SPANISH ONIONS 



for American Market Growers 



See page 2 of cover 



Barcelona, White Sweet Spanish (New) 



Barcelona is a selection obtained from our famous onion, Espanola, 

 it is pure silvery white in color. It is also more of a true globe shape. 

 The outer skin is silver white and the inside is sparkling white, of fine 

 texture, mild flavor and delicate tenderness. 



We recommend all our friends to try Barcelona, although 

 it will be necessary to order early because our stock of seed 

 this year is limited. Price, oz. 50c., 34 lb. $1.50, lb. $5.00. 



Espanola Henderson's New Spanish 



Under good conditions great crops of ideal 

 Spanish Onions are produced; bulbs that will 

 measure 4 to 6 3<4 inches in diameter, and weigh 

 up to 234 lbs. each, equal in every respect to 

 the imported onions. 



Espanola has a perfect globe shape, light 

 coppery yellow color, and ripens up well. It 

 is very mild in flavor, easy of culture, and 

 owing to its very large size produces a heavy 

 crop. Price, oz. 40c., ]i lb. $1.25, lb. $4.25. 

 10 lb. lots and upwards at $4.00 lb. 



Ebeneezer or Japanese Onion 



This well-known varietj^ is flattened in shape, 

 of a good deep yellow color and is a very excel- 

 lent keeper. It is largely used for producing 

 sets for an early crop of bulbs the following 

 year, but is also a fine variety to raise from 

 seed in the ordinary way. Price, oz. 30c., 

 34 lb. 90c., lb. $3.00. 



Japanese Bunching 



Japanese Bunching shows no tendency 

 whatsoever to form a bulb, but produces long, 

 smooth and tender, snow-white necks. It is per- 

 fectly hardy and can be planted either in spring 

 or fall. It is ready for market earlier than any 

 other variety, and its attractive snow-white 

 appearance causes it to be greatly in demand. 

 Price, oz. 40c., 34 lb. $1.25, lb. $4.00.

 showy, white onions, of fine, mild qual- 

 ity, especially adapted for using when young or bunching for
