Genuine Pnzetakcr Onion has proved itself to be one of the handsomest and most pro¬ 
ductive targe Yellow Globe Onions which are grown extensively today. It grows as easily 
as any other sort, and can be used for all purposes—the young plants as salad, the half- 
grown bulbs in early summer, and the perfect mature Onion practically at all times for 
it keeps so well that it may be used almost the year around. It is esteemed not only in 
America, but in foreign countries. Soon after its introduction it was exhibited in Lon- 
d°n, and in the keenest competition with the products of the most skillful growers, earned 
an Award or Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society of England. Not only does 
it grow to a large size, but uniformly so. The shape is true globe, broad at the base: 
tapering sharply at the top. It is so well bred that the tops dry down entirely when it)
