ONION SEEDS 
The wide popularity of Onions grown 
from this seed is well proven by the 
largely increased sales with which we are 
favored year after year. It is a well known 
fact that the farther north vegetable life is 
dcvel' Ped the stroncor. hardier and better that 
dcvelopernent is. This is especially true re- 
garding Onions grown from our Minnesota 
seed. They are earlier, hardier, finer 
flavored, better colored, firmer and in 
every way superior. WW. jruarantec our seeil 
strictly . highest grade, of strou;; vitality, and 
to Kive satisl'attory results. In no vegetable 
does the value of the crop raised depend 
more directly on the QUALITY Of seed 
than the Onion.
