markets. Is very mild and of fine

MORSE BROWN GLOBE 
A fine, large, globe-shaped sort, of a 
rich, seal-brown color. It ripens uni- 
formly and nearly every plant makes 
a solid, hard bulb. It has all the 
long-keeping characteristics of Aus- 
tralian Brown, and is one of the very 
best varieties for market. We have 
boomed this onion a great deal the 
past three seasons and do not think 
we have said anything in its favor 
that has not been completely corrobo- 
rated by actual results. It is one of 
the handsomest of the Globe onions, 
is hard as a brick and a great keeper. 
We have not as yet had sufficient 
seed of it to allow us to put it on the 
market, except in small quantities. 
Owing to a fair crop of it, we are able 
to offer it now in larger quantities and recommend it to all 
large growers who want a fancy and profitable market onion.

qualities. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; M lb. 60c; lb. $1.75. (See cut.)
