May's Minnesota Grown 
ONION SEED. 
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 developed the 
stronger, hardier and better that development is. This 
is especially true regarding Onions grown from our Min- 
nesota seed. They are earlier, hardier, finer flavored, 
better colored, firmer and in every way superior. We 
guarantee our seed strictly highest grade, of strong 
vitality, and to give satisfactory results. In no vege- 
table does the value of the crop raised depend more 
directly on the QUALITY of Seed than the Onion.
