ONION SETS 



One quart to 50 feet of row: eight to ten bushels 

 per acre, according to size of sets. 



All onions attain full size and maturity the same 

 season from spring-sown seed, yet many people de- 

 sire to plant out sets for earliest Onions for the 



table or to use green or for bunching. 



Choice Grown Onion Sets. 



Our Silver Skin Sets are choice Pennsylvania 

 grown, and are superior to Western grown sets this 

 season, which are badly damaged. Prices in quan- 

 tity upon request. 



The price per bushel is subject to change with the 

 market; write for quotations.

PARSLEY— Petersilie 



One ounce to 150 feet of drill. 



Sow in rows one foot apart and one inch deep. 

 The seed is slow to germinate and should be given 

 the most favorable conditions. A deep. rich, loamy 

 soil is required. For winter use a few plants placed 

 in a box in the cellar will give a supply. 



EXTRA DARK MOSS CURLED.— The large 

 leaves are very heavily crimped and curled, being 

 quite mosslike in appearance and of peculiarly rich, 

 extra dark green coloring. Very productive, and 

 most attractive as a garnish, both on account of 

 this deep green coloring and fine mossy appearance.
