STAFFEL’S 
ONIONS 
BERMUDA ONIONS—We import all our Ber- 
muda Onions seed from the most responsible 
growers in Teneriffe, on the Canary Islands, 
hence our truckers and gardeners can rest as- 
sured of being supplied with genuine fresh 
stock, and we caution every grower against 
cheap American-grown seed, which will not 
give good results in the South. 
WHITE or YELLOW BERMUDA — The most 
widely known and largely planted of the Ber- 
muda varieties. Before we introduced our 
Crystal Wax this was’ generally calfed White to 
distinguish it from the Red Bermuda, al- 
though it is a light yellow or straw color. 
Since the appearance of Crystal Wax the 
trade began calling this variety Yellow, to 
distinguish it from the pure White Crystal 
Wax. This has led to some confusion as to 
the name, and from now on we shall list it 
under the name cf WHITE or YELLOW to avoid 
misunderstanding. Ounce 75c. 
CRYSTAL WHITE WAX BERMUDA—Largely 
grown by truckers and shippers in Southwest 
Texas. These bulbs are large and of the true 
Bermuda type. They mature extremely early. 
The color is a beautiful waxy white. Unex- 
celled as a market variety or table sort. 
Thousands of bushels are shipped from our 
State to northern markets every spring and 
command highest pri es. Plant in South Texas 
in September and October, in North Texas in 
February and March. Write for prices. Ounce 
75c.

Sets. They are ready about September Ist, and

ful White Onions early in the season. Pound

Onion Plants 
Raise Early Onions from Staffel’s 
Onion Plants. Ready December Ist. 
For those who desire an early crop, 
either for table use or for local mar- 
keting, these plants will prove most 
desirable. They may be set out at the 
same time you would plant sets or 
cabbage plants. Plant in rows about 
15 inches apart and 3 to 4 in hes 
apart in rows. 
CRYSTAL WHITE WAX BERMUDA— 
Unquestionably the most attractive 
Onion in the world. It is an absolutely 
pure white Bermuda Onion with a most 
beautiful waxy appearance that makes 
it sell on sight in all markets. This is 
the Onion retailers generally offer for 
sale as it sells itself. No other Onion 
has such a clear white skin, such 
mildness of flavor. It is deliciously 
tender and can be eaten raw like an 
apple. A large yielder. 
Delivered prices: 100 plants, 20c. Ask 
for quotations on larger quantities. 
Parsley 
TRIPLE MOSS, CURLED—A favorite 
with market gardeners. The plants are 
of dwarf, compact habit, leaves heay- 
ily curled and crimped and of dark 
green. Ounce 10c; 4 pound 25c. 
PLAIN or SINGLE LEAVED—Excellent 
for seasoning. Hardy, strong growing. 
Ounce 10c; 14 pound 25c. 
Parsnips 
Parsnips do the best in deep, rich, 
sandy soil, but will make good roots 
on any soil which is deep and mellow 
and moderately rich. As the seed is 
sometimes slow to germinate it should 
be sown as early as possible. 
LARGE SUGAR or HOLLOW CROWN— 
Considered the best for general cul- 
ture. The market gardener’s favorite. 
Ounce 20c; 1% pound 60c.
