'S ONION SETS 
Woodruff’s onion sets are famous. 
The reason is that we have grown 
them ourselves for so many years that 
our sets are unsurpassed. We grow 
them from Woodruff-grown seed and 
keep them in our own frost-proof 
storage warehouses until ready to ship, 
when they are given a final cleaning 
before shipment. 
One of our 8 Frost-proof Onion Set Storage Warehouses, capacity 42,000 bu. 
Quality and service have made us the largest retail onion set house in America. 
In 1916 we introduced the Japanese Onion Set, which has yet to be equalled for producing a large crop 
of high quality onions for either storage or sale from the field. Many seed firms claim to have the 
true strain of Japanese, but onion growers of experience prefer to buy from the originators—Woodruff 
of Milford. 
We operate our own onion set growing farms, and are in a position to quote in carlots, f.o.b., Illinois. 
The prices below are f.o.b., Milford, Conn., or Illinois, whichever is nearer. 
1933 Crop was very short. 
We reserve the right to de¬ 
cline orders for onion sets.
