YELLOW ONIONS 



Yellow Globe Danvers Onion 



640 



Southport Yellow Globe 



A main-crop variety, growing to a uniform, deep globe-shaped Onion, 3 to 5 inches in diameter. It has a rich golden yellow 

 color and the flesh of the bulb is mild and juicy. It is one of the most largely grown varieties and can be depended upon in every 

 way. Its keeping qualities are quite superior and the bulbs make an attractive appearance on the market. It is slightly larger and 

 more globular in form than Yellow Globe Danvers. This variety is quite popular in many Onion sections and is one of our finest 

 strains. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., y 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $1.75. 



644 



Mammoth Yellow 

 Prizetaker 



This is a very handsome Onion, growing almost perfectly glob- 

 ular in form, with thin skin of a bright straw-color. It grows to 

 an immense size directly from the seed, frequently measuring 

 12 to 18 inches in circumference, while under special cultivation 

 specimen bulbs have been raised to weigh three to five pounds 

 each. It makes an excellent Onion for fall and early winter use, 

 but is not so good a keeper for late winter as the Southport 

 Yellow Globe, or Yellow Globe Danvers. Notwithstanding its 

 large size, the skin is fine and silky; the flesh is pure white, very 

 crisp and delicate in flavor, rivaling, in many ways, that of 

 the well-known and popular Bermuda Onions. Pkt. 10 cts., 

 oz. 20 cts., y 4 lb. 60 cts., lb. $1.75. 



650 Yellow Dutch, or Strasburg 



The bulbs of this Onion are quite large and flat, and this is 

 the variety that is almost universally used for producing the 

 best-shaped Yellow Onion sets. The skin is very light yellow 

 or straw-color; the flesh creamy white, mild and of excellent 

 quality. Ripens down quickly and keeps well. The stock we 

 offer is all superior in its uniformity of shape and evenness of 

 color, and is warranted to be true. For the market-gardener 

 this is a most desirable and profitable sort. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., 

 Vilh. 50 cts., lb. $1.50. 



642 Yellow Globe Danvers 



No variety is used more extensively for the main crop than 

 Yellow Globe Danvers. It produces bulbs of medium size, 

 globe-shaped and more flattened than the Southport Yellow. 

 The flesh is creamy white, crisp, mild and of excellent flavor. It 

 produces an excellent crop from seed sown in the spring in the 

 open ground. The neck of our strain is very small, and the 

 whole appearance of this variety is very pleasing. The bulbs 

 are quite solid, making it an excellent shipping sort. Pkt. 5 Cts., 

 oz. 15 cts., y 4 lb. 50 cts., lb. $1.50. 



648 



Round Yellow Danvers 



The bulbs of this variety are flatter in shape than the 

 Yellow Globe Danvers. The skin is a light copperish yellow, 

 covering creamy white flesh which is mild and of excellent 

 flavor. Uniformity of growth and strong, healthy plants 

 characterize this strain of Danvers. Where markets prefer a 

 more flattened Onion than the Yellow Globe Danvers this 

 variety is especially recommended. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., Vilb. 

 50 cts., lb. $1.50.
