Quick to Mature Remarkably Good Keeper 



629 Tnis is one °f tne oldest American varieties, which takes its 

 name from the town near which it was first grown, and has 

 always been a general favorite. Its keeping quality is supremely 

 good. There is a considerable variation in the shape of this variety 

 — shapes that vary from flat to deep oval. We have consistently 

 adhered to the original type, which, but for a slight deprdssion 

 from top to bottom, is a perfect sphere. - The matter of tops has 

 had close attention, and are so bred that at maturity they disap- 

 pear entirely, leaving the bulbs quite without neck, clean, solid 

 and good throughout. (See illustration.) Price, pkt. 10c.; oz. 35c. ; 

 M lb. $1.00; lb. S3. 50; transportation paid. Special price on large 

 quantities. 



"i hate received my seeds and am sending this order for my neigh- 

 bors who saw -the onions I raised from your seed last year. They were 

 wonderfully good.'— MRS. O. H V NGERFORD, Waterlown, N. Y.

Famous for Its Delicious "Scallions" 



This is beyond doubt the very best Onion for general use during 

 the spring, summer and autumn. We do not esteem it so highly 

 for winter use. as it is excelled by other sorts for keeping purposes. 



There are none that yield more delicious "scallions." or young plants 

 for salad purposes, none which are more suited to boiling during the 

 growing season, and none so generally esteemed for their mild, delightful 

 flavor. Should there be any small bulbs left in the row at the end of the 

 season they may be used for pickles. Always, under all conditions, it 

 is appetizing and wholesome. (See illustration.)

 especially adapted for using when young. Price, pkt. 10c. ; oz. 50c. ; H lb,

Onion Sets 



In private gardens, the cultivation of the family supply of Onions from sets has much 

 to recommend it. The amount of labor involved is less, the danger of loss from maggots 

 ami other insects is considerably reduced, the crop is surer to grow, and is ready for use 

 weeks in advance of that grown from seed. On a small scale where the cost of sets is 

 not a serious item, we urge customers to use them. In fact, the ideal way is to use both 

 sets and seed — the sets for use in the spring and summer, and seed to grow bulbs for 

 winter keeping
