587 Shumway’s Early Red Globe 
Earliest of All Red Globes 
Big Money Maker 
Early Red Globe has been one of my 
Onion specialties for many years. Bulbs 
are perfectly globe-shaped and uniformly 
small necked, which insures thorough dry¬ 
ing out near the top where nearly all the 
trouble originates in keeping onions. Color 
is deep blood red. Having been raised so 
long in a favorable climate, it has formed 
the habit of early ripening, and yet grows 
to full marketable size early. A very pro¬ 
ductive variety and excellent keeper. Pkt., 
7 cts.; oz., 22 cts.; *4 Hi., 68 cts.; % lb., 
$1.20; lb., 82.25; 2 lbs., 84.25, postpaid.

567 The largest yielder in cultivation—often producing 
1.000 bushels per acre. Though well flattened the large- 
size Onions are quite thick. The outer skin is deep rich 
purple-red, smooth, and glossy. The flesh is white, lightly 
tinged with pinkish rose near the skin. The Onions are at¬ 
tractive, solid, and have a pleasing Onion flavor. It is a 
standard late variety which will keep in storage for a long 
time. Splendid for sets and widely grown for full size 
Onions. This is the onion for the farmer, and gardener to 
grow to put in their cellars for the winter, because it is one 
of the easiest to grow. It is certainly one of the be§t keep¬ 
ing Onions. Always of excellent quality. It’s the greatest 
money maker, because it is so heavy a yielder. Pkt., 7 cts.; 
oz., 19 ets.; % lb., 60 cts.; % lb., 81-00} lb., 81-85; 2 lbs., 83.50, 
postpaid.
