When Better Seed is Grown—We Will Grow It 
23 
This is the largest, handsomest, and mildest onion known today. The Ameri¬ 
can Strain was developed by a large onion grower at Riverside, California, and is now 
superior to the original strain that has been shipped to this country in large quantities 
from Spain for several years. Thousands of acres of the Sweet Spanish are grown 
in Western states, and shipped from coast to coast. From the present outlook, it 
is fast becoming more popular than the famous Bermuda Onions, which can only be 
grown successfully in a warm climate. 
It is a' large .globe-shaped, brownish-yellow onion, often weighing from one to 
three pounds. The flesh is white, fine-grained, mild, and sweet, yet retains the 
onion flavor. It may be eaten like an apple. 
When properly and thoroughly cured, it is a good keeper, and a splendid shipper. 
It has been known to yield over 1,500 bushels per acre. To grow the larger sizes, 
they should be thinned to at least four inches between the plants. It takes from 
2 to 3 pounds of seed to plant an acre. 
There-is none better. We urge everyone to give it a trial. You will not be 
disappointed. We believe this is the most profitable variety yet introduced.

This produces very large globe-shaped white onions of mild flavor. A fairly 
heavy yielder and commands a top price on the market. While a fairly good keeper, 
it is hardly as good in this re»spect as the Yellow Sweet Spanish.
