THE FAMOUS 
Prizetaker 
Onion 
PRAISE FOR PRIZETAKER ONIONS 
“7 had a Prizetaker Onion last year from seed sown in the fall that weighed 2 
Pounds , 1 ounce. My Onions look first prize at the fair." 
J. B. RUPLE, Rifle Gardens & Greenhouses, Rifle, Colo. 
"Just a line in regard to the quality of your seeds. Last season I raised some 
of your Prizetaker Onion Seed. The onion when full grown was the largest and 
finest flavored onion I have ever known." 
Mr. ARTHUR T. BUTLER, 234 River Ave., Patchogue, L. I. 
"We have the finest field of Prizetaker Onions around here from your seeds.” 
Mrs. ROBIN FORREST, Pullman, Mich. 
A Matchless Keeper 
Prizetaker is at once the largest and 
most handsome of all American Onions, 
and is renowned everywhere. It is grown 
with great success in all sections of the 
country, and is one of the few vegetables 
that attain great size, and still retain 
perfect quality. 
It grows as easily as any other sort, 
and can be used for all purposes — the 
young plants as salad; the half grown 
bulbs in early summer; and the perfect, 
mature Onion practically at all times, for 
it keeps so well that it may be used 
almost the year round. 
It is esteemed not only in America, but 
in Europe. Soon after its introduction, 
it was exhibited in London, and in the 
keenest competition with the products of 
the most skilful growers, earned an 
“Award of Merit” from the Royal Horti¬ 
cultural Society of England. 
Not only does it grow to a large size, 
but uniformly so. The shape is true globe, 
broad at the base, tapering sharply at 
the top. 
It is so well bred that the tops dry down 
entirely when it ripens, leaving a clean, 
sound bulb, perfect in form, rich in color, 
and wonderfully solid. The outer skin is 
rather pale yellow, the flesh pure white 
throughout. It is extremely mild in flavor, 
very much esteemed for slicing, baking 
and boiling, in fact, in whatever way it is prepared, it is unsurpassed. 
(See engraving.) Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 85c. lb., $3.00 lb. 
"Last year I raised eight bushels of fine Prizetaker Onions on twelve rows of 
twenty-five feet. They were a pretty sight in the row." 
F. II. YORKE, M.D., Foosland, III. 
"The Prizetaker and Yellow Globe Danvers Onions I grew from your seed 
took first prize at Conner County Fair." 
Mrs. THOMAS JUDGE, Clarke Fork. Idaho. 
"I had some Prizetaker Onions from the seed I bought from you last year at 
a contest on the 1G//i of March which took first prize." 
S. J. MORGAN, Alger, Ohio. 
Magnificent in Size 
Delightfully Mild in Flavor 
" The Prizetaker is the best Onion I ever saw. It takes the prize at all of the 
Fairs." MONTGOMERY MILLER . Lancaster, Wis. 
Henderson’s Superior Onion Sets 
In private gardens, the cultivation of the family supply of 
Onions from sets has much to recommend it. The amount of 
labor involved is less, the danger of loss from maggots and other 
insects is considerably reduced, the crop is surer to grow, and is 
ready for use weeks in advance of that grown from seed. On a 
small scale where the cost of sets is not a serious item, we urge 
customers to use them. In fact the ideal Vay is to use both sets 
and seed — the sets for use in the spring and summer, and seed to 
grow bulbs for winter keeping. We offer sets of the three standard 
varieties mentioned below, the descriptions of which will be found 
on page 39 of this catalogue.
