OUR ONION SEED VERY CAREFULLY SELECTED 
ONIONS 
CULTURE—Onions thrive best in rather deep, 
rich, loamy soil, and unlike most vegetables, succeed 
well on the same ground for successive years. The 
ground should be deeply trenched and manured the 
previous autumn, and laid in ridges during the win¬ 
ter to soften. As early in the spring as the ground 
is in working order commence operations by leveling 
the ground with a rake. Sow thinly in rows 14 to 
15 inches apart, 4 pounds to the acre, and a quarter 
of an inch deep. Cover with fine soil and press 
down with the back of a spade or a light roller.

PRIZETAKER 
This handsome variety is a splendid type of 
the celebrated Spanish fancy onions, which are an¬ 
nually imported into the United States from Spain. 
The onions grown here quite rival the imported 
ones in great beauty and enormous size, weighing in 
many cases from 3 to 3% pounds each. The outside 
skin is of a rich, yellow color, while the flesh is 
white, sweet and mild. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; % lb. 75c; lb. $2.25. 
GIGANTIC GIBRALTAR 
Produces perfectly globular bulbs of enormous 
size. The skin is of a pleasing light straw color, and 
extends evenly over the whole onion. The flesh is 
pure white and astonishingly sweet. It is mild and 
tasty, and the texture is brittle, tender and juicy. 
The large handsome onions mature very evenly.

Spanish variety which has quickly become very pop¬ 
ular in many sections. Pkt. 10c; oz. 30c; lb. $2.50. 
VALENCIA 
Ex-select strain. Sweet Spanish. Pkt. 10c; oz.

BROWN AUSTRALIAN 
It is medium size, wonderfully hard and solid, 
and most attractive for market, both as to form and 
appearance. They are extremely early in ripening. It 
has the reputation of keeping indefinitely, and we 
think from its firmness and hardness that it will 
keep in good condition longer than any other onion 
known. The color of the skin is a clear amber brown.

and early ripening to the White Bermuda; very

slightly suffused with pink. Tender if grown from 
seed.
