THE TRUTH ABOUT ONION SEED 
Those of you who want a little seed to grow a few Onions for your own private use or a pound ( 
or two to sell the product in your local markets, can use any of the varieties listed on the following 
pages. They are all good, reliable sorts and are carefully grown to insure quality and type. You who 
want to plant for commercial purposes to sell in car lots, use Condon’s Model Globe types listed below 
or Condon’s “Special Strain” Brigham’s Longkeeping Yellow Globe listed in forepart of catalog. We 
selected the parent stock from the Southports and by reselecting and breeding have developed this ‘ 
strain which produces a much finer grained Onion, smaller necks, extra heavy skin, making them 
Extra long keepers and especially suited for storage purposes. In color our Model Red Globe is [ 
the deepest dark blood Red you ever saw. The Yellow is an exceptionally heavy skinned dark yellow, 
and the White is as clear white as the driven snow. In yielding qualities they have produced as much l 
as 1,200 bushels per acre, but of course that is uncommon. Average yield in good season, 600 to 700 
bushels. • |] i
