Globe /Danvers Onion 
This beautiful new onion, 
which we offered last spring 
for the first, will undoubted¬ 
ly become the most popular 
of all red onions. Its ex¬ 
treme earliness has been a 
great surprise to us as well as 
to all market gardeners who 
have grown it. It is of per¬ 
fect globe shape, resembling 
the Southport Large Bed 
Globe in its rich purplish- 
crimson color, but is ready 
for market several weeks 
ahead of that variety, and 
is unquestionably the earli¬ 
est American red variety 
ever introduced, and one of 
the best keepers. Per pkt.,

$2.40 per lb.

DANVERS. 
This new onion, recently introduced into the 
United States, has met with wonderful success, suc¬ 
ceeding admirably, and is pronounced the best 
keeper of all onions. The shape and size are well 
shown in our photograph alongside. The outside 
skin is of a deep amber brown, distinct from all 
other onions, extremely hard and firm, of line fla¬ 
vor and will keep almost indefinitely. Australian 
Brown is the only onion Australian growers will 
plant. We offer choice American-grown seed from 
the original importation. Pkt., 10c.; oz., 20c.; JTb.,

New Long-keeping Onion. 
We especially recommend our Philadelphia 
True Yellow Globe Danvers as the best yellow 
onion, of true globe shape and uniformly perfect. 
Our Round Yellow Danvers Onion is of the 
true round type and not a mixture of round and 
fiat onions as is generally sold for this variety. 
Our Philadelphia Yellow Dutch of Strasburg 
is the best for growing sets, which are always 
round, plump and handsome. 
Our American Extra Early Pearl is the 
earliest of the White Onions, very mild and won¬ 
derfully large and fine. 
The Rhode Island Yellow Cracker Onion, 
first introduced by us a few years since, will be 
found the earliest yellow onion.
