HASTINGS’ BIG FOUR ONIONS 
For several years we have been selling thousands of our 
“Big Globe Onion Collection,” and this year we-have made 
that collection much more attractive by adding a large 
packet of Hastings’ Genuine Imported White Bermuda On- 
ion Seed to each collection at the same price. This will give 
you a fine chance to ‘try the Bermuda in your garden, getting 
onions extra early. Just read the description and look at 
the illustration on the opposite page. 
Hastings' Three Globe Onions are just the kinds wanted 
in all parts of the South in spring except Florida. They 
are thoroughly satisfactory, large size, quick growing, long 
keeping, globe shaped onions that can be grown to full size 
direct from seed planted in the spring in all parts of the 
South except in Florida and extreme South Texas, where 
all varieties of onions should be planted only in the fall. 
Hastings’ Globe Onions are in a class by themselves. For 
home use they are unexcelled in growth and keeping quali- 
ties, and if a surplus is grown their handsome waxy ap- 
pearance makes them a ciuick seller at highest market 
prices to your nearest merchant. 
Our illustration gives you a perfect idea of their handsome 
shape and appearance. You can’t afford not to have one or 
more of them in your garden this year. We recommend 
them fully for every garden in all the Southern States except 
Florida. You will be more than pleased with them. One
