Kilgore's New Long White Bunching 
Ideal For Early Green Onions 
Culture. First plantings are made the first of September 
and continued until March. October and November are the 
best months to plant. In Florida the seed is generally planted 
in the open field, where the onions are to grow, in rows 15 
inches apart, and when 4 to 5 inches high they are thinned out 
to 3 to 4 inches apart in the drill. Those taken out can be 
used to transplant any possible skips. Onion seed can also 
be planted in seed-beds and transplanted to the field later. 
This is a safe and popular method in Florida. Transplant¬ 
ing produces less splits and more first grade onions. 
Prices quoted are postpaid.

KILGORE'S NEW LONG WHITE BUNCHING. This onion 
satisfies the demand for a variety that develops long white 
green onions of attractive appearance when bunched, and of 
mild sweet quality. This variety makes a very long stem, 
nearly twice as large as ordinary bunching onions, pure white 
in color, and without the slightest trace of a bulb. These 
onions grow in clusters, 3 to 5 onions being on one plant.

RED BERMUDA. (Imported; Canary Islands Grown.) 
Our Red Bermuda onion seed is grown on a separate island 
from other Bermudas to keep this strain absolutely pure. This 
is a well known, standard variety in the West Indies, where it 
is grown more extensively than other Bermuda varieties, be¬ 
cause it stands the high temperature and humidity conditions 
of the tropics, better than other varieties, and also is a better 
keeper than other Bermudas. The onions are of medium 
size, flat, with mild sw r eet flavor. The color is a light yellow¬ 
ish-pink. pkt 5c; qz 25c; |b 80c . 1 |b $2.75. 
WHITE KEEPER. This variety is noted because of its won¬ 
derful keeping qualities for a white onion. The seed germi¬ 
nates a little slower and the plants grow more slowlj than 
Bermudas. The onions are of medium size, semi-globe shape, 
of strong flavor making them good for cooking but not for 
salads. This variety resists thrips better than any other 
variety we know about. The very best white variety to grow 
where it is desired to keep the onions through the summer 
in the South.
