MISS MARY E. MARTIN, FLORAL PARK, NEW YORK. 
ustralian Brown Onion. J* 
Is of medium size, wonderfully 
hard and solid. They are extremely early 
in ripening, and never make any stiff-necks 
or scallions. Every seed seems to pro¬ 
duce a good-sized Onion, and the bulb 
begins to form very quickly when the 
plant is not over three inches high. 
Planted with the Red Wethersfield, it 
proved to be nearly four weeks earlier and 
ripened off more uniformly. From its firm¬ 
ness and hardness it will keep lunger in 
good condition than any other Onion 
known. The color of the skin is a clear 
amber-brown.

An excellent keeper, of finest flavor, 
bandsomeshapeand enormous size; many 
single Onions having been raised to weigh 
five pounds and over from seed the first 
.year. It is of the same type as those'im¬ 
mense imported Onions which can be seen 
in fruit stores and always command a 
very high price. The Prizetaker. grows 
always to a perfect globe shape, with a 
bright straw-colored skin; the necks are

§iberian Cucumber. S S S S S & 
. , ... Absolutely the earliest Cucumber known. 
A startling surprise for market gardeners; nothing like it ever 
Cucumber, Think of it! Cucumbers five inches long, grown in 
ground from the seed in fifty-five days! In our trial groun 
season, the seed was planted May 24th, the same time as 
other varieties. On July 18tli it was the only Cucumber 
set and on this date had Cucumbers live inches long, It is also a 
splend.d free-bearing variety, and for early-forcing purposes or for 
slicing it is the most valuable addition ever made. Try it. Pkt., 10 c.
