Schell’s Pennsylvania Bottle 
Onion. Rich, mild flavor. 
Good keeper. 
ONIONS. 
IMPORTANT! The destructive drought and other unfavorable 
growing conditions last year resulted in one of the smallest crops 
of both Onion Seed and Onion Sets in the history of our country. 
--- BE WISE; grow more Onions this year. They were scarce last 
(See also page 23) year and the crop brought high prices. Now, with only 25 per cent 
enough Onion Sets and only 35 per cent enough Onion Seed in America, that means there 
cannot be other than a very serious shortage in large Onions next fall and winter. It looks 
advisable to grow a lot of Onions this year.
