BEWABE OF CHEAP ONION SEED. 
There is no crop more sure than that of 
•Onions, and few are more i)roiitable to the 
g'owcr; the one prcat point is to PLANT 
ELIABLE SEEDS. Thousands of dol- 
lars have been lost by planters, who have 
bought cheap seeds; they have not only 
lost the seeds, but in many cases their entire 
•crop has been a failure. 
Northern Grown Onion Seed is un- 
•equaled, and will produce more Onions to 
the acre, and of finer quality, than any seed 
that can be sown. 
j Our Onion Seed is carefully selected. 
Largre Red Wethersfleld. — This is the best 
red Onion grown ; of large size and splendid 
form, skin a dark red, flesh purplish-white; 
fine grained and stronger in flavor than the 
white or yellow varieties. 
Immense crops of this Onion are grown 
♦specially for shipping purposes, it being an 
excellent keeper and wonderfully productive. 
It will pay you to sow our onion seed. 
Pkt. Sc., oz, 15c., lb. 4,5c., lb. $1.60. 
Yellow Globe Danvers. — For several 
years we have made a specialty of this va- 
riety and the Red Wethersfield, being careful 
to select seed from only the largest and best- 
formed bulbs, and we know our strain of 
these two varieties is imsurpasaed. It is the 
earliest yellow variety, and vcrv product- 
ive, in fact, it is all that could be desired as 
actable or market onion. Sow our strain 
•of Tellow Globe Danvers, if yon want a 
tig crop. Pkt. Sc., oz. 15c., % lb. 45c., lb. 
$1.60. 
Extra Early Pearl.— The earliest and 
finest of all the white varieties. Grows to an 
■immense size, and is of a beautiful waxv 
white color; flesh mild and of a delicious 
flavor It ^rows with remarkable rapid- 
ity, reaching the first season, from seed, the 
-enormous weight of three or four pounds 
each, and frequently measures seven or eight 
inches in diameter. 
If yon are in want of the best white 
■omon, QKOW EXTKA EARLY PEARL. 
Pkt. lOc, oz. 35c-, 14 lb. $1.00, lb. $3.25. 
Extra Early Bed.— Very earljr and pro. 
ductivc, mild flavor, medium size; color a 
deep red. .This variety is particularly adajjted 
for the Northwest, as it will form full-sized 
bulbs in cold soil where all other sorts fail. 
Pkt. 5c., oz. IGc, J/t lb. 4.0c., lb. $1.50.

fersfrom the Globe strain in shape only, being; 
more flat. Pkt. 5c., oz. 15c., H 'b. •*0c., lb.

cellent keeper and a good yielder. Largely

60c., lb. $2.35. 
Bed Globe, — This variety ripens about ten 
daj-s earlier than the large Wethersfield, and

low ; later, flatter and larger than Yellow
