FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS.

OZNTIOItSr SEED. 
Pure, sure and true to name. We realize the importance of good Onion seed 
that we know will grow, that is sure to produce the variety you expect when 
you plant the seed. We pride ourselves at being over particular, and have 
confidence when we send it out that it is just what we say. Now, we do not 
wish to tell you that our seed will produce 1500 to 2000 bushels to the acre, 
but it is good, true, honest seed. Our man that helps us look after the Onion 
seed says, “you can guarantee every seed as represented”. That’s pretty 
strong, but he has selected the Onions, watched them from the planting to 
the harvest, and is proud of the many words of praise received from our 
customers. We have never seen a strain superior to ours, and have seldom 
seen one to equal it for purity, form, color or keeping qualities, and freedom 
from scullions and thick neck and can assure our customers that no better, 
truer stock can be obtained at any price. 
We have no second grade seed to sell; our energies are all to get the best 
that can be produced. We have a model, and we breed toward that model, try¬ 
ing for perfection and how well we have succeeded is proved by our constantly 
increasing trade. We pride ourselves in growing the very best Onion seed that 
can be produced, and we supply some of the largest growers in the United 
States.

best that can be growu. Honest pkt. 5c, oz. 8c ( 1-4 lb. 25c, lb. 90c.

grown successfully in any locality where other onions are produced. The color is a bright 
straw, and it always grows to a uniform shape, which is nearly a perfect globe. Our seed is 
the choicest American grown, and not Imported Spanish King, as sold by some dealers at low 
prices under the name of Prizetaker. Large, honest pkt. 5c, oz. ioc, 1-4 lb. 30c, lb. 90c, post¬
