Onions 
Crop very short; supply limited; prices subject to change 
1/3 oz. to 100 ft. row. 4 to 5 Ibs. to acre 
German: ZWIEBEL Italian: CIPOLILO Spanish: CEBOLLA 
Yellow Globe Danvers. One of the most extensively used 
main crop yellow onions. Bulbs of medium to large size, 
uniformly globe-shaped, with small neck, and ripen very 
evenly. Skin rich coppery yellow; flesh creamy white, 
crisp, and of mild and excellent flavor. Keeps well; ex- 
cellent for shipping. 110 days. 
Southport Red Globe. Trials continue to prove that this 
variety also is one of the best keepers. The globes are 
medium to large in size and medium early. A smooth deep 
purplish-red skin covers the paler flesh which is mild, 
fine grained, and tender. This onion is excellent for home 
gardens. 125 days. 
White Sweet Spanish. A true “Riverside” Sweet Spanish, 
identical with the original Sweet Spanish in every way 
except color, which is pure white. Large size, mild flavor, 
solid and crisp, and, last of all, a beautiful pure white. 
100 days. 
Yellow Sweet Spanish. The color is a light straw, some- 
what like the true Denia. It is a rapid grower and if you 
plant the seed in hot beds and then transplant them you 
will get a larger onion. This seed should not be planted 
too close, two to two and a half pounds to the acre should 
be right. The size should average about four inches in 
diameter, some of course being much larger, as you note 
by the picture. 100 days. 
Southport White-Globe. Abundant yield and large size are 
valuable characteristics of this medium early onion. Its 
whiteness, firmness, and mild flavor are also splendid 
qualities, especially for cooking. By years of careful se- 
lection we have developed a strain that is unsurpassed in 
uniformity and attractiveness of shape and color. 110 days.
