The New and Better 
Isbell's Michigan Yellow Globe 
Brigham Strain 
This is the heaviest yielding and best keeping type 
of Yellow Globe Onion grown in this State. See color 
picture page 2. 
Michigan grown seed from selected bulbs of the 
original strain. 
Michigan Yellow Globe 
Ripens evenly, is a wonderful keeper and a most excel¬ 
lent shipper. Ripens early and has the attractive color of 
Southport. Small neck. Bulbs grow to large size. Very 
solid. Truly a profit-maker for any grower. Originated- by 
one of the largest commercial onion growers in the great 
onion producing district of southwestern Michigan. Buy¬ 
ers give preference to this sort and generally pay a premi¬ 
um for them due to fine size, appearance and exceptional 
keeping qualities. 
All that is said about this Brigham Strain for com¬ 
mercial growers, of course, recommends it for the home 
garden. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; % Ik., 80c; lb., $2.75, postpaid. 
Yellow Bermuda 
Bermuda Onions are noted as the mildest and sweetest 
of all onions. They are flat in shape and make fine 
large bulbs on good soil. The Yellow Bermuda is of a 
clear light straw color. Early enough to mature from 
seed where other onions can be grown successfully. Pkt., 
10c; oz., 25c; ^ lb., 70c; lb., $2.25, prepaid. 
Valencia Sweet- Spanish 
An excellent very large sweet yellow onion that is being- 
grown commercially on a large scale. The onions are 
globular, with golden yellow skin. Flesh is white, ex¬ 
ceedingly mild and sweet. Heavy yielder. Pkt., 10c; oz., 
30c; *4 lb., 00c; lb., $3.25, prepaid. 
New Early Yellow Globe 
Isbell's Evergood Red Globe 
the handsomest red globe in cultivation 
Isbell’s Evergood has been one of our leading specialties 
for many years. Bulbs are perfectly globe-shaped and 
uniformly small necked, which insures thorough drying 
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. The Evergood is a magnificent keeper. Matures in 
10 days. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; ^ lb., 75c,; lb., $2.35, prepaid. 
Long Keeper—Ripens Early 
Here is an early type of yellow globe onion of Connecti¬ 
cut origin which matures fully three weeks ahead of 
Southport and other similar sorts. This is a fine globe- 
shaped onion with a beautiful yellow color. It is a splen¬ 
did winter keeper and because of its thick skin, keeps in 
storage, better than most early sorts. The bulbs do not 
quite reach the size of some of the later sorts but it 
yields nearly as well and is a more sure yielder because 
it is earlier. Pkt., 10c; oz., 25c; % lb., 75c; lb., $2.35, 
prepaid. 
Double Tested Seeds 
All Isbell’s seeds are tested for germination in our elec¬ 
tric tester, which duplicates natural conditions. They are 
also tested for purity and trueness to type on our ex¬ 
tensive Trial Grounds. 
_NEW Early Yellow Globe 
Dependable Early Market Onion, 
Very Long Keeper 
Southport Red Globe 
Grown from hand-picked bulbs, only bulbs which are 
perfect in size and shape being used for seed. Red Globe 
onions are just the size to command the highest price. 
They are more uniform in size, darker colored skin, 
heavier and better keepers than any strain of Southport 
we have ever seen. Keeps well until spring. Matures in 
135 days. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; ^4 lb., 60c; lb., $2.00, prepaid. 
Extra Large Red Wethersfield 
Persistent selections of bulbs planted for seed have given 
us a small-necked, sure ripening strain. Though well flat¬ 
tened, the solid Onions are thick through. The outer skin 
is a deep rich, purplish red; flesh white, lightly tinged 
with pinkish rose. Its splendid keeping qualities make it 
easy to hold crops for late winter mar¬ 
kets. Pkt., 5c; oz., 20c; *4 lb., 60c; lb., 
$2.00, prepaid.
