AUSTRALIAN BROWN — A Valuable Long-Keepingr 



Onion. — This new Onion, introduced into the United 

 States a few years since, has met with wonderful suc- 

 cess, and is pronounced the best keeper of all onions. 

 The outside skin is of a deep amber brown, distinct 

 from all other onions, extremely hard and firm, of fine 

 flavor, and will keep almost indefinitely. Australian 

 Brown is the only onion Australian growers will plant.

 quite thick through; light yellow skin; flne-grained, 

 mild, white flesh. Pkt., 5c. Oz., 20c. % Lb., 400.
