ONION PLANTS 
SWEET SPANISH—Utah Strain 
An Easy Way to Raise Large Sweet Onions 
These onion plants which are raised in Texas, have proved excellent 
for raising both early green onions and dry bulbs for late summer use. 
When set out in the early spring, large handsome onions are produced 
within 10 to 12 weeks with very little work. These onions will grow in 
any good garden soil and will keep a long time. Set the plants 3 to 4 inches 
apart in rows 14 to 18 inches apart. 
Our strain of yellow Sweet Spanish is the only satisfactory kind to grow 
and we do not offer any other kind. 
Please Note: We offer onion plants by the bunch only. These plants 
are grown in Texas and are pulled by the handful, each handful being 
called a bunch. The number of plants in a bunch usually runs between 50 
and 110 depending largely on the size of the plants. The count varies a 
great deal and we cannot specify the number of plants in a bunch. 
Price: Single bunch 50c; 2 bunches 90c; 5 bunches $1.75; 10 bunches 
$3.00 transportation paid. Not paid: full crate (60 bunches) $9.50. 
Onion plants may be shipped only east of the Mississippi River and 
north of Virginia. 
SHIPPING ONION PLANTS: In order to supply onion plants to our 
customers in the best possible condition, we are having them shipped from 
Texas in a special refrigerated car. We expect them about the last week in 
April (depending on Texas weather conditions) and will mail them out 
immediately upon their arrival here. If your land should not be ready they 
can be held for quite a while by spreading them out in a cool place. 
We can also accept a few orders for earlier shipment, about April 15th, 
and for later shipment about May 10th. If the last part of April is defi- 
nitely inconvenient for you, please mark your order to goat the earlier or 
the later date. Otherwise, your order will be filled out of the main car-lot 
shipment. 

Sweet Spanish Onion Plants 
PARSNIPS 
A packet of seed will sow about 25 feet of row; an ounce 150 feet. 
This fine vegetable should be in every home garden. A few rows will 
supply the needs of a family. The roots can be dug and stored in a pit 
outdoors or in moist dirt in a cool cellar and will supply a welcome addi- 
tion to the winter vegetables. Should be left in the ground until they are © 
frozen. Try some ’’French fried” parsnips, they are delicious. Sow seed 
in May in rows 2 feet apart in finely pulverized soil and cover the seed 
not more than 4 in. deep. Thin the plants to 4 inches apart. 
640 HARRIS’ MODEL. tae Smoothest and Whitest Pars- 
p. These parsnips are medium length, 
very smooth, and remarkably tek from small roots or prongs. Harris’ 
Model has a well deserved reputation for being whiter than any other 
parsnips. This and their smoothness make them very attractive for 
the home garden and more saleable in the market. Our seed is carefully 
grown from selected transplanted roots on our own farm. You will 
find these very superior parsnips. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 85c. 
642 LONG HOLLOW CROWN. Long, smooth and straight, and of 
good quality. We have a fine strain of this popular variety. 
Pkt. 10c; Oz. 25ce; 14 Lb. 75c. 


Ebenezer Onions—Grown from sets 
These make delicious early “boilers” 
ONION SETS 
1 Ib. will set 75 to 100 feet of row, depending upon the size of the sets. 
or fine dry onions for winter. 
It is very easy to raise onions from sets and they should be grown in 
every garden. If the sets are set out early in the spring, nice green onions 
can be pulled in a few weeks. The onions grow large enough to cook about 
the first of July in this latitude. Two or three weeks later they become 
large, ripe onions which can be kept through the winter if desired. The 
sets should be planted about 2 inches apart and covered an inch deep. 
For economical use of ground in the small garden it is a good plan to 
plant the sets about one inch apart in rows. Pull every other one for green 
onions in the spring and leave the rest for boiling onions. This will give 
you a continuous supply throughout the summer. 
EBENEZER SETS. Yellow. These sets will not only produce fine 
bunching onions but also large yellow onions 
of the finest quality. The quality of the onions is far superior to ordi- 
nary yellow sets and the yield is also larger. See page 26 for full descrip- 
tion of this variety. We are pleased to offer fine even sets. 
1 Lb. 40c; 2 Lbs. 75c; Peck (8 Lbs.) $2.00 postpaid. Not prepaid; 
Bu. (32 Lbs.) $4.50; 2 Bu. $8.50. 
WHITE SETS. (White Portgual or Silverskin.) Used mostly to 
produce early bunching onions. These also make nice 
looking and fine flavored onions to eat while young or will produce good 
large onions for fall. See description of this variety on page 26. These 
are beautiful sets, clean, uniform and true Silverskin. 
1 Lb. 45c; 2 Lbs. 80c; Peck (8 Lbs.) $2.25 postpaid. Not prepaid: 
Bu. (32 Lbs.) $5.00; 2 Bu. $9.50. 
Note: Onion sets cannot be shipped until about the last of February, 
as they are kept in storage until that time. We are glad to accept orders 
at any time; they will be shipped when ready, or as soon as danger 
of freezing is past.
