Onions 
A packet will plant 25 feet of row; 1 ounce 200 feet; 5 to 6 pounds per acre. 
Onions may be grown with sets, plants or seed. Sets are covered with an inch of soil. 
Several weeks are required to produce “green eating’ Onions. Frequent shallow cultivation is 
suggested. They are mature when the tops break over naturally and become dry. A loose but 
rich, fine soil will usually produce the best green Onions and mature bulbs from seed. Don’t 
neglect to thin the plants to stand 3 or 4 inches apart in the row. 
641 Brigham Yellow Globe Pkt., 10c; Y¥ oz., 30c; 02., 50c; % Ib., $1.50; Y% Ib., $2.40 
(110 days.) The bulbs are distinctly globular in shape and mature to a larger size than 
other strains of Southport Yellow Globe. It is an excellent variety to grow in all locations 
with the exception of deep muck, where, if the season is wet it is very difficult to ripen and 
produces more thick necks than Early Yellow Globe. Brigham Yellow Globe is looked upon 
as an exceptionally good variety for storage. However, Early Yellow Globe will store 
equally as well if lifted from the ground at the same stage of maturity. 
642 Early Yellow Globe Pkt., 15c; Ye 0z., 35c; 02., 60c; % 1b., $1.60; Y% 1b., $2.75 
(95 days.) The most popular variety of Yellow Globe Onion we list. The best variety for 
production on muck soil or upland, and has now largely taken the place of Yellow Globe 
Danvers and Southport Yellow Globe. This is due to its ability to produce a good sized 
Onion ten days earlier than other Yellow Globe types. Early maturity is essential where 
the growing season is short and the keeping qualities depend on the Onion being fully 
matured. This variety maturing earlier insures well ripened bulbs which can be sold 
directly out of the field and are also ideal for storage. This is Evidence of How Very Large Growers of

_ Pkt., 10c; ¥% 02., 40c; 02., 70c; V4 lb., $1.95; % Ib., $3.25

large size, handsome appearance, sparkling white flesh of very fine texture, and extremely 
mild flavor. 


651 Southport White Globe Pit., 10c; 1% 0z., 35c; 0z., 65c; % Ib., $1.90; % Ib., $3.25 
(110 days.) The finest of all white Onions. A good shipper and keeper. Our stock has 
the true globe shape, full at the base and shoulder. Crops raised from our seed have 
given excellent results to others; they will do the same for you. 
640 Dutch Bottle Long Neck Pkt., 15c; Ye 0z., 50c; 0z., 85c 
(115 days.) Derives its name from its long bottle-like shape; being mild and sweet, is 
absolutely unsurpassed in flavor. Grows longer, whiter and has more edible stalk than 
any other Onion. 


























































































657 White Portugal or Silverskin Pkt., 10c; Y% oz., 35c; 0z., 65c; % Ib., $1.75 
(100 days.) Principally used for bunching and pickling, this variety is also used for 
producing white Onion sets. It has a mild flavor and this coupled with its snowy white 
skin makes it a great favorite with growers and consumers. The bulb will develop to 
3 inches in diameter with a depth of 114% inches. It has fine keeping qualities. 
655 Hardy White Bunching Pkz., 10c; 12 02z., 35c; 0z., 60c; “% Ilb., $1.60; Y% lb., $2.75 
(45 days.) For early spring and autumn bunching this variety is ideal. It does not form 
a bulb but grows in a cluster of 3 to 5 straight Onions. This is a fast growing variety 
which forms mild green Onions early in the season that will continue to grow throughout 
the summer under all conditions, and can be wintered over for harvesting the following 
spring before the sets are ready. The seed can also be planted early in the summer before 
Early Yellow Globe August, for harvesting late in the fall or left to mature early the following spring.
