 the bulbs from which our seed is grown 

 are specially and carefully selected as to 

 shape. Oz., 35 cts.; % lb., $1.00; lb.,

 beautiful pale yellow; the bulbs are of a 

 beautiful globe shape, and good keepers.

 Prizetaker. This is the large pale 

 yellow onion that is offered for sale in 

 the fruit stores and markets in the fall.

 and of mild and delicate flavor. Onions 

 have been grown to weigh over 3 lbs. 

 each in weight, and where good soil and 

 culture is given them they will always 

 grow to a large size. It is the best 

 variety of Onion for use in growing the 

 large bulbs from transplanted plants 

 which have been raised in hot-bed, and for this purpose is 

 now more largely used than any other sort. The handsome 

 appearance of this onion, together with large size, make it
