PRICE’S VEGETABLE SEEDS 
ONION 
All Packets 10c 
HOW TO GROW ONIONS: For dry (fall) bulbs, select a clean, 
rich, well-drained and well-manured piece of land, prepare a perfect 
seed bed, and sow seed in early spring in drills 15 in. or so apart. 
Use wheel hoes and weeders freely, and thin plants to stand at least 
2 in. apart in the rows. Pull when tops begin to die down, cure, or 
store in a cool, dry place. One ounce for 100 feet of row, four to five 
pounds for one acre. FOR SETS, select clean, sandy soil of medium 
fertility, prepare it well in early spring, and at once sow seed in 
drills a foot apart, using 40 to 60 lbs. of seed to the acre. 
EARLY YELLOW GLOBE —The earliest producer of quality 
globe onions. Has the shape of Yellow Globe Danvers, but 
is ready to harvest fully three weeks earlier. Has a fine color, 
a thick skin and keeps well. See Price Below. 
PRICE’S IMPROVED YELLOW GLOBE DANVERS—A 
special strain of our own, sold only by us. This variety is a 
great yielder and a fine keeper, and will produce more large, 
fine-shaped, marketable onions to the acre than any other 
variety of Danvers Onion. (Eastern Grown.) See Price 
Below. 
JAPANESE —Introduced in 1916, and extensively used for 
sets, the bulb is yellow, flattened, a heavy yielder and good 
keeper. Onion sets of this variety develop fewer seeds stalk

JAPANESE BUNCHING (WHITE) —This new variety is a decided improvement over the 
old bunching kinds. This onion does not form a bulb but grows in clusters of three to five 
mild straight onions. It is a rapid grower and forms marketable green onions very early. 
When fully grown the onions are nearly an inch in diameter, but retain their mild flavor. 
WHITE LISBON (BUNCHING) —This fine bunching onion is popular in many sections. 
It does not form a large bulb, but has large tops and flesh of mild flavor. The skin is smooth 
and white. 
WHITE WELSH —Does not form a bulb, but can be sown in the summer for early spring 
bunching onions. Perfectly hardy. 
WHITE QUEEN —Early market and pickling sort. Bulbs medium small, pure white, flat..
