Large Golden Oregon Onion. —A Great Money-Maker. 
I offer my customers and all critical onion growers seed of my select strain of Golden Oregon Onion. This is 
a very handsome onion, thin yellow skin, white flesh, fine grained, firm, and of extra flavor. It is the result of 
years of labor in the most careful selection with a view to EARLINESS, PERFECT SHAPE, SOLIDITY, and 
EXTRA KEEPING QUALITIES. It grows to a very large size, solid and thick thru as shown in the above 
illustration. It is an enormous yielder, and is in every way all that can be desired as a market or table onion. 
I hope every one of my customers will plant it. # All growers who give special care may certainly expect extra¬ 
ordinary results. I have received a host of testimonials from all sections—in favor of this remarkable onion, 
and no one should miss this great money-maker—for it will be money lost. My grower writes, 
‘*1 PLANTED a measured half acre and gathered from the same 452 bushels. This is at the rate of 904 bushels per acre. 
In an exhibit of 17 varieties of onions at our State Fair the Golden Oregon took the first premium over all competitors. It ic* 
certainly the most remarkable onion before the people to-day.” E. Pollock of M ich. writes:—We planted your Golden 
Oregon, and they were the nicest onions ever raised here—and this section is noted for its fine onions.

-BY A. I. ROOT.- 
TEMPKRANCE, PURITY, AND GODLINESS. 
Our old friend A. T. Cook, of Hyde Park, N. Y., sends out a nice 
catalog of garden seeds, etc., and actually takes space on its, 
crowded pages to plead for temperance, purity, and godliness. It ( 
is refreshing to find a seed catalog that not only refuses to sell to-, 
baeco seed, nor anything else that, in his opinion, will not be a real' 
substantial benefit to liis customers, but uses its valuable space to 
remonstrate with the boys on commencing to use tobacco. Brief 
exhortations for righteousness are scattered all through its pages.
