* DELICIOUS—83 days. (Early Bender) Home and market 
garden variety. Best early variety. Fruits large, well ribbed 
and heavily netted. Flesh orange, deep, good flavor. 
* GOLDEN DELIGHT—88 days. An All America Bronze Medal 
Winner for 1952. This new variety is a large, broad, oval 
melon, a trifle earlier and larger than Pride of Wisconsin. 
Flesh, thick deep orange color, flavor good to excellent. It 
has an attractive greyish-green netting on the skin with almost 
indistinct ribbing. Recommended for home garden and local

ings suggested for sections of G.L.F. territory with the longer 
growing seasons. (See picture on back cover.)

riety. Popular for market where Fusarium Wilt is not present.

orange, thick and excellent flavor.

ONIONS 
* EARLY YELLOW GLOBE—98 days. Market and home garden 
variety. Most important early commercial variety. Bulbs globe 
shape, yellow and keep well in storage. Excellent strain. 
* EBENEZER OR JAPANESE — 105 days. Home and market 
garden variety. Popular also for onion sets. Bulbs medium 
size, practically flat and very good keepers. Rather strong 
flavor. 
IOWA YELLOW GLOBE 44—105 days. A new storage onion 
developed for muck soil at the Iowa Agricultural Experiment 
Station. It was derived from the Brigham Yellow Globe by 
inbreeding and selection. This variety has considerable merit 
from the standpoint of storage quality, color and unusual uni- 
formity in date of maturity. It is deep globe shape very simi- 
lar to the Brigham Yellow Globe and the outer scales are 
tough and adhere to the bulbs. Its keeping quality is the 
outstanding feature of this variety. 
MICHIGAN YELLOW GLOBE— 110 days. (Brigham Strain) 
Market garden variety. Chief late crop on muck. Bulbs globe 
shape, heavy outer skin. Good keeper in storage. Excellent 
strain. 
YELLOW GLOBE DANVERS—110 days—(Melzer strain). Mar- 
ket variety. A well-known storage variety. Bulbs medium in 
size, round, yellow in color, with small neck. 
*& SWEET SPANISH—110 days—(Utah Strain). Home garden 
and market garden variety. Large, mild flavored onion. May 
be grown from plants for late mature bulbs. 
* GREEN BUNCHING—60 days. A home and market garden 
variety of green nonbulbing onions for table use or bunching 
for market. Sometimes called ‘‘Scallions.’’ Single plants pro- 
duce clusters of 4 to 6 green shoots with long, pure white 
stems, mild in flavor. 
* Varieties adapted to home garden where high quality is most important.
