ing condition. Use them as green onions, or let them de¬ 
velop to creaming size. If allowed to continue growing 
they will develop good-sized bulbs. Orders will be shipped 
at proper time for setting out. Set out 100,000 plants per 
acre. 
We can usually supply the following varieties: Yellow 
Bermuda, Crystal Wax, Prizetaker and Valencia, but in
