HOME GROWN 
ONION SETS 
^EBENEZER OR “JAPANESE” SETS: These 
sets were produced on rich sandy loam on our 
own farms. They have been carefully cured, 
graded to maximum, and are now in cold 
storage. These should not be confused with 
western grown sets. Our sets are more evenly 
sized and in much better condition. 
These sets can be used for green onions or 
may be left to produce large dry onions for 
early market. Very few of the plants of this 
variety go to seed. Lb. 20 cts.; pk. (8 lbs.) 
$1.10, Prepaid. Bu. $3.25 not prepaid. 
We don’t know why cutting Seneca Bender should make Clair 
so serious. Perhaps he has eaten too many. All of our melon seed 
is taken from selected hand-cut melons.

^SENECA BENDER: Very uniform 5 to 6 lb. Bender 
of high quality. For description and prices see page 3. 
>|cBENDER, Eastern grown. 95 days. Due to a differ¬ 
ence of opinion as to what the ideal Bender should 
be, there are a great many different types now on the 
market. Some have bred for size and have sacrificed 
quality. Our ideal has been a melon averaging 7 to 8 
lbs., heavily netted, with thick sweet orange yellow 
meat, firm but free from stringiness. Pkt. 10 cts.; 
oz. 25 cts.; lb. 70 cts.; lb. $2.25. 
BENDER, Western grown seed. 95 days. In order to 
supply a trade that uses a cheaper seed we have se¬ 
cured a supply of seed of this variety from Colorado. 
The prices on this western grown seed are: Pkt. 5 
cts.; oz. 15 cts.; 3 ^ lb. 35 cts.; lb. $1.10. 
DELICIOUS: 86 days. This may be described as 
an early Bender. It is a comparatively new variety.

for the home garden. Pkt. 10 cts.; oz. 25 cts.; % 
lb. 70 cts.; lb. $2.25.
