572 Yellow Globe Danvers 
My strain of Yellow Globe Danvers is un; 
surpassed. It forms a large, deep, heavy 
bulb with small neck, but is not quite as 
oval in form as the Southport type of Globe 
Onions. The flavor is rather mild. It ma- 
tures early and, yet it is a splendid keeper. 
Heavy yielder. A very satisfactory variety 
or large commercial planters. Pkt., 10 
cts.; 0oz., 30 cts.; 14 Ib. 90 cts.; % Ib. 
$1.70; Ib.; $3.25; 2 lbs. $6.30, postpaid.

many instances aS much as.1500 bushels per acre. Pkt., 10 cts.3

584 White Bunching 
or White Lisbon 
Gardeners should _ plant 
this Early Money Crop. A 
real early annual variety 
grown solely for green 
bunching Onions. The stalks 
are longer, thicker, whiter, 
and milder in taste than 
any other variety and al- 
ways brings the top price 
on the market. The young 
plants should be gradually 
earthed up to blanch the 
stalks as far as possible. 


This is an import item. The 
European war prevents any com- 
ing across. We recommend our 
Southport White Globe featured 
} on page 36 as the best variety to 
‘ee nie produce early green bunch white 
‘a ee Onions.
