HENDERSON’S EXTRA EARLY FLAT RED. 
Remarkably Early. Good Keeper. Mild Flavor. Excellent for Home Gardens. 
This is one of the host all-round varieties, being useful either for boiling, slicing or pulling 
young for use in salads. It is the earliest of the Red American sorts. The color is not so 
deep as Red Wethersfield, and it is a little flatter in shape. It is valuable where earliness 
is a necessity, and is a good keeper. Price, 5c. pkt., 25c. oz., 60c. W lb., Si.80 lb. 
ROUND YELLOW DANVERS. Very similar to our Yellow Globe Danvers, differing 
mainly in shape, being much flatter. It matures early, is a good keeper, is of good size, and 
is an excellent sort for market as well as for general use. 5c. pkt., 15c. oz., 45c. lb., $1.35 
lb., 5 lbs. and over, at $1.25 lh. 
YELLOW DUTCH OR STRASBURG. A useful flat type of Yellow Danvers, used 
largely to grow for sets. Flavor is mild, and it is a heavy cropper. The bulbs are flatter 
and harder than any of the other yellow varieties. 5c. pkt., 15c. oz., 45c. lb., $1.35 lb., 
5 lbs. and over, at $1.25 lb.

HENDERSON’S LARGE RED 
WETHERSFIELD is a grand red 
variety and a general favorite. With the 
exception of the Yellow Globe Danvers, 
there is no variety so largely grown. Our 
stock is excellent, being saved from only 
carefully selected bulbs. The cut gives 
an accurate idea of the shape. Our stock 
will be found quite free from necky and 
misshapen bulbs, and will invariably grow 
to a large size under proper conditions. 
The surface color is a rich dark red. It 
is an early variety to mature and a fine 
keeper. The flavor is good and mild, ad¬ 
mirable for boiling. (See cut.) Price, 5c. 
packet, 20c. oz., 45c. % S1.35 lb., 5 lbs. 
and over, at $1.25 lb. 
“Please send me another ounce of your Large- 
Red Wethersfield Onion. I wish to compete for 
the prize at our fair and want your seed or none.** 
Adam Jones, Syracuse, N. Y. 
“ The worth of the Peter Henderson Garden 
Seeds has been emphasized many times already, 
but Mr. Henry Murray, the South Side garden 
fancier, has just left at Holmes & Band’s four 
onions grown from the Henderson seed, the com¬ 
bined weight of which is six pounds. There is 
enough real onion in the four sjteci- 
mens to break up forty love matches. 
Mr. Murray measured the ground upon 
which ten bushels of these were raised 
and finds that the yield was at the 
rate of over 1.100 bushels to the acre.’*

Yellow Globe Danvers. 
H ENDERSON’S 
SUPERIOR 
A STANDARD VARIETY EVERYWHERE. 
Shape round and uniform, not “ necky.** Bright attractive color, mild 
flavor, fine quality. Early, but sure keeper. Heavy cropper, good 
seller. More extensively grown than any other Onion. 
This is probably the finest all-round sort grown. The 
enormous quantities annually shipped to market prove its 
popularity, and it is more largely grown than any other 
variety. Wo take unusual precautions to maintain the high¬ 
est degree of perfection in our stock, and can confidently 
claim superiority for it. The shape is round, a little de¬ 
pressed at top and bottom. The color is a rich brownish 
yellow, making a most attractive bulb. It is medium in 
sizo, but remarkably solid and heavy, producing as much 
weight per acre as any variety grown. It can be used to 
great advantage from the earliest date to the last, as it is 
one of the surest keepers, and is delicious oven when in its 
youngest stage. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 20c. oz., 45c. % lb., 
$1.40 lb., 5 lbs. and upwards, at $1.30 lb. 
"I leant you to reserve me at least ten pounds of the same lot of Yellow Globe Danvers 
Onion ns you sent me last spring. Inman old onion grower, but never saw such fine results 
from any crop before.” O. H. Bennett, Chicago, III. 
"Ifyou send me ns good seed of Yellow Globe Danvers Onion as you did last year. 1 don’t 
care if it costs $5.00 a pound. From the pound of seed I bad from yon 1 raised ST bushels of as 
tine Onions as 1 ever saw grown.” James Marvin, Cumberland. W. Va.
