Buchanan’s Disease-Free Sweet Potato Slips 
Sweet Potato Slips are planted in rows about three feet apart, and the Plants set twelve inches apart in the row. 
takes about 7,500 Plants for each acre of ground. For a home garden 1,000 Slips will make you a nice patch, and I ship 
many orders of 500 and even 100 Plants to those having small gardens. 
We begin shipping Sweet Potato Slips April 10, weather permitting, and 
ship every day until July 1, and have shipped as late as July 17. When 
ordering state what date you want your slips shipped. We believe May 
and June are the best months to set them. 
We have a fine lot of seed of the Nancy Hall and Porto Rica varieties 
and comply with all state laws and can ship into any state. Our 20 
years experience in pulling, packing, shipping is back of all slips we ship; 
have shipped slips to California, Florida, Texas and New Mexico, as well 
as our neighboring states, and have had them on the road six days with 
out loss. Order early. 
NANCY HALL—This is our most popular Sweet Potato, because of its 
early maturing and ready sale on all markets, especially the Northern 
markets, where the Southern Nancy Hall is known as the best eating 
sweet potato grown. Color, yellow, slightly running; ready to harvest in 
July, fine for cooking, but does not keep during the winter as well as the 
Porto Rica. Price, 100, 50c; 500, $2.25; 1,000, $3.50, post paid. 
PORTO RICA YAMS—We have grown this Sweet Potato for five years 
and the demand for both Seed and Slips has increased each year; it is 
fine-grained, juicy, as good for eating as the Nancy Hall, and has the 
additional quality of being a good winter keeper. Color, golden red, 
running, late maturing, good keeper and I consider it the best Sweet 
Potato grown today for home use. Price, 100, 50c; 500, $2.00; 1,000, $3.25, 
post paid. Write or phone for prices on larger quantities.

Buchanan’s Bermuda Onion Plants 
Thoroughly cultivate and prepare your land just as you would for any 
truck. For the best results plant in rows twenty-four inches apart and 
six inches in the row. 
Sharpen a wooden stick, making a hole about two inches deep, place the 
plant in as you withdraw the stick and press the dirt firmly around the 
plant. 
Cultivate very shallow as the onion roots grow near the surface and 
should not be disturbed. About all cultivation needed is scratching to kill 
the weeds. You will find the onion plant the easiest of all plants to grow. 
They will keep for weeks before planting if not allowed to become heated 
or wet. Keep them dry and give plenty of air if not ready to plant on 
arrival. 
Harvesting—It is best to harvest when about 60 per cent of tops are 
soft at neck just above onion. Pull them up, let lay in sun for two or 
three days, giving tops a chance to descend into the onion, thereby 
increasing in weight and firmness. After this is done place the onions 
in a cool place with tops and roots cut off about one inch from onion. 
For keeping for home use let tops and roots remain and tie in bunches 
and hang in cool place. Be careful the place is not full of light, for light 
turns the Crystal Wax Onion green. You will find they keep for months 
in this manner. 
Soil—Like everything that grows, the richer the land the heavier the 
yield. You will have very satisfactory results on all kinds of soil. Plant 
any day you can work the ground from September 1 to May 1. 
The following is a table giving the set at different widths and average 
number of plants it will take per acre.

YELLOW BERMUDA—The most popular of all the Bermuda varieties. 
It is a light straw-colored onion. No onion compares with the Bermuda 
in mildness of flavor, and for this reason it is extensively planted, espe¬ 
cially in the South, where it reaches perfection. 
Price—100, 25c; 200, 45c; 500, 85c; 1,000, $1.35, post paid. 
Price—by express not prepaid, from growing station to you—1 crate, 
6,000, plants, $3.75; 5 crates, 30,000 plants, $17.50. (/ 
CRYSTAL WHITE WAX BERMUDA—No other onion has such clear, / 
white skin, such mildness of flavor. It is deliciously tender and can be 
eaten raw like an apple. We begin shipping about September 1 and con¬ 
tinue shipping Bermuda Plants un^il May 1 the following year. 
Price—100, 35c; 200, 50c; 300, 75c; 500, $1.00; 1,000, $1.75, post paid.
