NORTHRUP. KING & CO.’'S VEGETABLE AND FLOWER SEEDS 
ONION—Yellow Varieties— (Continued) 
Ebenezer or Japanese 118 days 
A yellow skinned variety very popular for 
growing sets. Matured bulbs are large, 
somewhat flattened in shape, with small 
tops and will keep in good condition all win- 
ter. It is known as one of the mildest onions 
grown. 
Golden Globe 115 days 
A bottleneck type with golden yellow, 
oblong-globe bulbs. Flesh firm and solid and 
bulbs keep well in storage. An excellent 
set variety that produces large, early, at- 
tractive set onions. 
Mountain Danvers 110 days 
An early yellow onion, not as round as the 
Globe Danvers nor as flat as the Flat Dan- 
vers. Color beautiful dark yellow shading to 
brown. Thick skin makes it a fine keeper and 
shipper. Flesh is clear whitish-lemon color, 
firm and fine grained, mild and sweet. 
N. K. & Co.’s Minnesota Yellow Globe 
115 days. A special strain of Southport Yel- 
low Globe. 
Ohio Yellow Globe 112 days 
A generally popular yellow globe onion, 
named because of its great production and 
satisfaction in northern Ohio. Very attrac- 
tive shape, skin pure deep yellow, flesh firm 
and hard. Small necks. Good yielder and an 
excellent keeper. Similar to Southport Yel- 
low Globe except more flat bottomed. 
Prizetaker or Denia 105 days 
Most widely grown of the Sweet Spanish 
class. A mammoth yellow globe, derived 
from the huge Spanish Onion. A heavy pro- 
ducer, about 10 days earlier than Southport 


Southport Yellow Globe Brigham Strain 
Yellow Globe. Light straw-colored skin with 
pure white flesh, coarse grained but with 
rather mild flavor and a good keeper. 
Southport Yellow Globe, 
Brigham Strain 110 days 
A selection from Southport Yellow Globe 
for thick skin and keeping qualities. This 
variety has done especially well on peat and 
muck soils. The bulbs are deep globe shape, 
color is dark yellow or orange yellow. The 
skin is thick and there appears to be an ex- 
tra layer. A very excellent storage variety.
