ONION 
Sow 3 pounds in seed-bed to plant an acre, 
or plant 5 pounds per acre in field 
Cutrure. 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 18 
inches apart, and when 4 to 5 inches high they are thinned 
out to 2 to 3 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 sure method, and is becoming very popular 
in Florida. ‘Transplanting generally produces less splits 
and more first grade onions. 
Prices quoted are postpaid.

Early Grano or Eariiest Express (New) 
EARLY GRANO OR EARLIEST EXPRESS. (New) This new 
onion is much earlier than the Sweet Spanish, which it some- 
what resembles in shape, color and quality. It matures even 
earlier than the Bermudas. Bulbs are of light brown or cream 
color, globe or mostly top-shaped, slightly tapering toward 
the root, of large size, with pure white flesh. Exceedingly 
mild in flavor with a very sweet taste. Quite resistant to 
thrips. This is the earliest maturing onion for Florida and 
the South, and is more resistant to premature seeding than 
other varieties. In our trials, this variety shows more promise 
as one especially suited to Florida growing conditions than 
does any other variety. Seed suvply limited. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 45c; 4 Ib. $1.44; 1 Ib. $5.00. 
LARGE YELLOW SWEET SPANISH. This is the finest strain 
of this sort ever introduced. The mature bulbs usually 
weigh one and one-quarter pounds and measure four inches 
in diameter. They are perfectly globular in shape, light glossy 
yellow in color, and are exceedirly attractive in appearance. 
The bulbs are very mild and sweet, and are of exceptionally 
fine quality. This strain is particularly well adapted to Flor- 
ida sandy loam soils, but is not recommended for muck. Later 
in maturing than Bermudas.

Pkt. 5c; oz. 35¢; 1% Ib. $1.00; 1 Ib. $3.50. 
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, 
because it stands the high temperature and humidity condi- 
tions of the tropics better than other varieties, and also is a 
better keeper than other Bermudas and not so subject to 
splitting. The onions are of medium to large size, flat, with 
mild sweet flavor. The color is a deep red. It is very early in 
maturity. Sold Out

productive, of small to medium size, solid, semi-globe shaped 
Onions of light pink color. Strong in flavor, but one of the 
very best keepers. Seed supply extremely limited.

AUSTRALIAN BROWN. We have the true Buckskin strain, 
noted for its exceptional keeping qualities. Bulbs are of me- 
dium size, semi-globe shaped, very firm and solid, and the

in flavor, but a wonderful keeper in warm climates. Grows 
slowly and is late in maturity.

KILGORE’S LONG WHITE BUNCHING. This onion has been 
developed especially to satisfy 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. Seed supply limited.
