OOUthport IxeCl OlObe ly command an extra price in New York 

 markets because of their beautiful shape and color, due partly to the variety 

 grown and partly to the favorable soil and the extra care taken in handling the 

 crop. The Southport Red Globe is of medium size, spherical, with small neck, 

 very deep, rich red color and of superior quality. We 

 offer a strain of exceptionally fine color and excellent 

 quaiitv: much superior to that usually sold. Pkt. 5c;

 flesh creamy-white, comparatively mild and welfflavored. 

 The bulbs are rather flat with small necks and ripen down 

 very evenly. This is still a standard, general crop, yellow 

 onion where a strictly globe shaped bulb is not demanded.

Yellow Globe Danvers 



V 11 i^l 1_ T\ The Danvers Onion 



Yellow Cilobe Danvers was originally oval or 

 nearly flat and it has been thought by many that its small 

 neck and splendid ripening habit could only be obtained 

 in onions of that shape. We have by careful selection 

 and breeding developed a strain which has to a remarkable 

 degree the ripening habit and small neck of the original 

 Danvers and yet is decidedly more globular in form, 

 thus giving larger yields and handsomer bulbs without 

 sacrificing any of the good qualities of the most popular 

 of yellow onions. Pkt. 5c: Oz. 15c; 3 Oz. 35c; ^ Lb. 40c;

»«• 1 • "VT 11 /-ti 1 Finest shape, best 



IVilChlgan Yellow Globe color and yields largest 

 crop of any yellow onion. The heaviest yield of onions is 

 always obtained from rich, black lands. On such soils it is 

 found that a globe shaped onion with a somewhat flat- 

 tened base gives the largest returns and to meet the de- 

 mands of the professional onion growers located on such 

 lands, we have developed this variety. The bulbs are 

 large and imiformly spherical, ^\^th very small necks; 

 the largest diameter below the center of the bulb; of 

 a rich, orange-yellow color; enormous yielders and splen- 

 did keepers. No onion grower can afford to plant in- 

 ferior seed when such as this can be procured. Pkt. 5c;
