Hendersons Genuine Southport Globe Onions 
T HESE highly-bred and critically-selected types of Southport Globe Onions are so superior in shape, size, solidity and yield 
to the onions raised from California strains that we have discarded all western-grown seed, our customers and ourselves 
having proven it economy to use Henderson s Connecticut-grown Globe Onion Seed — even at the higher price : : ;

averaging 9 to 10 inches in circum¬ 
ference, solid, heavy and of perfect globe 
shape; the skin is of a gloss}’ - deep pur¬ 
plish-red color; flesh close-grained, spar¬ 
kling white, cooking tender and mild. It

yielder, averaging under good culture from

of this seed is absolutely unsurpassed,

cally selected for largest size, solidity, 
brilliant rich color and typical globe 
shape, with small necks, thus insuring 
thorough and regular ripening and curing.

I have raised onions for 15 years and must say 
that your Globe Seed made the best onions 1 ever 
grew." WILL H. BROHSON, St. Albans, Vt. 
"My patch of Southport Red Globe Onion is caus¬ 
ing lots of comment among the neighbors; all agree 
that nothing better was ever grown in this section." 
._ J• A • DENNIS . Phila delphia, Pa. 
"["TIE most beautiful Onion grown, being 
of symmetrical globe shape with a 
smooth satin-white skin, forming a per¬ 
fect silver ball. It grows to a large size, 
averaging 74 to 9 inches in circumfer¬ 
ence, and is solid and heavy; the flesh 
is purest white, close and fine grained, 
mild and of delicate flavor. It is a heavy 
cropper, yielding under good culture up 
to 900 bushels per acre. Our strain of 
this seed is grown from picked thin-necked 
bulbs, which ripen so uniformly and cure 
so_thoroughly that the Onions keep nearly 
as well as the Red and Yellow varieties. 
For the family garden, as well as for mar¬ 
ket, this is a valuable Onion. Price ( Gen¬ 
uine Connecticut- grown seed), 10c. pkt.,

“ I grew about 2,000 bushels of your White Globe 
Onions this year. I got as high as 900 bushels to the 
acre, all beautiful onions. It was splendid and with¬ 
out any mixture whatever. ” 
_ JAMES McVITTY, Perry, Ohio. 
" Henderson's Southport 
Yellow Globe Onion. 
(GOLDEN GLOBE.) 
TIII S is one of the most satisfactory and 
popular varieties raised, either for 
family use or for market. It is an 
enormous yielder, hardy and reliable, 
making, under good conditions, often up 
to 1,000 bushels per acre. The onions are 
models of perfection, growing uniformly 
deep and globular in shape, veritable 
globes of gold, and are extra large, aver¬ 
aging 9 1° 10 inches in circumference; 
the color of the skin is an attractive light 
golden-yellow; the flesh snow-white, firm, 
mild and juicy.* The small necks of this 
superior strain enable the onions to ripen 
down evenly, insuring unsurpassed keep¬ 
ing qualities. Price (Genuine Connecticut- 
grown seed), 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 50c. 4 lb.,

“7 take pride in telling you that although I never 
had a garden until last Summer, I raised what every 
one said were the finest onions ever seen around here, 
and they were awarded the first premium at our 
county fair. They were Henderson's Yellow Globe 
I Onions ." Mrs . LUKE DOLC Hil\\ Rot he tei In l
