This variety produces very large, handsome Onions of bright yellow color and mild 
flavor. Single bulbs grown under favorable conditions sometimes weigh three pounds. 
The Onions are globe-shaped and of very mild, pleasant flavor. These Onions 
can be grown with perfect success by sowing the seed in the ordinary way 
in the open ground. For the largest and finest specimens start the seed 
in boxes in February or March, and transplant. Pkt., 16c; oz., 25c; 
lb., 80c; lb., $2.85, prepaid. 
Early Yellow Globe 
Here is a new early type of yellow globe onion of Connecti¬ 
cut origin which matures fully three weeks ahead of South-, 
port and other similar sorts. This is a fine globe shaped 
onion with a beautiful yellow color. It is a splendid winter' 
keeper and because of its thick skin, keeps in storage better, 
than most early sorts. The bulbs do not quite reach the size 
of some of the later sorts but it yields nearly as well and is 
a more sure yielder because it is earlier. Pkt., 10c; oz., 40c; 
^ lb., $1.25; lb., $4.00, prepaid. 
Valencia Sweet Spanish 
An excellent very large sweet yellow onion that is being 
grown commercially on a large scale. The onions are globu¬ 
lar, with golden yellow skin. Flesh is white, exceedingly mild 
and sweet. Heavy yielder. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; 44 lb., 80c; 
lb., $2.90, prepaid. 
Extra Large Red Wethersfield 
Persistent selections of bulbs planted for seed have given 
us a small-necked, sure ripening strain. Though well flat¬ 
tened, the solid Onions are thick through. The outer skin 
is a deep, rich, purplish red; flesh 
white, lightly tinged with pinkish rose. 
Its splendid keeping qualities make it 
easy to hold crops for late winter mar¬ 
kets. Standard red Onion in the North¬ 
west. Marketable Onions in 120 days. 
Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; 44 lb., 90c; lb.,

Yellow Bermuda 
Bermuda Onions are noted as the 
mildest and sweetest of all onions. 
They are flat in shape and make 
fine large bulbs on good soil. The 
Yellow Bermuda is of a clear light 
straw color. Early enough to mature 
from seed where other onions can be 
grown successfully. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; 
44 lb., 75c; lb., $2.25, prepaid. 
Crystal White Wax 
This is very similar to the Yellow 
Bermuda, except in color, which is a 
clear, waxy white. Also makes fine 
green onions as they are so mild and 
tender. For Bermuda onion plants, 
see below. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; 44 lb., 
70c; lb., $2.50, prepaid.

Early White Welsh. 
White Portugal or Silverskin 
A mild and pleasant flavored Onion of somewhat flattened shape when matured. 
It is very popular for family use, and one of the best for pickling, also for slicing 
and boiling. A favorite with many when young as a salad or bunching Onion. 
Matures quickly and may be sown as late as June to produce small pickling Onions 
by late fall. Pkt., 10c; oz., 30c; 44 lb., $1.00; lb., $3.50, prepaid. 
Early White Welsh Onion 
For Green Onions 
The best kind for green Onions; it forms no bulbs. A very 
hardy perennial variety of Onions used only for bunching or 
for early green Onions. From fall-sown seed, the shoots attain 
marketable size very quickly and sell at top prices before the 
green Onions grown from sets are brought to the market. 
Much superior to the E'gyption Onion. Sow seed thinly in rows 
12 to 16 inches apart. Seed may be sown in summer or early 
fall months for early Spring Onions. Market gardeners will 
find the White Welsh Onion an exceedingly profitable crop.
