ONIONS 
STAFFEL’S BERMUDA ONIONS come only from responsible growers in Tene- 
riffe, on the Canary Islands. Our truckers and gardeners can rest assured 
they are being supplied with genuine fresh stock. Our buyers are cautioned 
against purchasing cheap, domestic-grown seed which will not give good 
results in the South. 
WHITE OR YELLOW BERMUDA is best known and widely planted of the 
Bermuda yariety. Before we introduced our Crystal Wax this was generally 
called White to distinguish it from Red Bermuda, although it is a light yellow 
or straw color. This is a superior onion which gives excellent results in the 
vicinity. $ 
CRYSTAL WHITE WAX BERMUDA are largely grown by shippers and truckers 
in southwest Texas. The bulbs are large and of the true Bermuda type. 
They mature very early, the color is a beautiful waxey white and it is unex- 
celled as a market variety of table sort. Thousands of bushels are shipped 
from Texas to northern markets every spring and always command highest 
prices. South Texas plantings are in September and October, north Texas 
plantings, February and March.
