 for growing Yellow Onion Sets. Our strain produces thin-necked 

 flattened bulbs, which are quite thick through, yielding well in bulk.

 no variety so largely grown. Our stock is excellent, being saved 

 from only careful selected bulbs. The cut gives an accurate idea 

 of the shape. Our stock will be found quite free from necky and 

 misshapen bulbs, and will invariably grow to a large size under 

 proper conditions. The surface color is a rich dark red. It is an 

 early variety to mature and a fine keeper. The flavor is good and 

 mild, and it is an admirable onion for boiling. (See cut.) Price,
