Yellow Globe Danvers. A great favorite. 
Round, large; yields heavy; early to ripen 
and a good keeper; best kind for Puget 
Sound. All onion growers like it. 
Sweet Spanish. A very large, globe shaped, 
yellow onion. In flavor it is very mild and 
sweet and it has good, firm meat of tender 
texture. It is one of the best for the home 
garden, and also for the early market. 
Planted at the proper time, and well cured 
it is a good keeper. 
Crystal Wax Bermuda. An early pure white 
onion. Much in demand on account of its 
mild sweet flavor. Fine as green table onion 
or for cooking in the fall. Not a very good 
keeper for winter use. 
Southport Red Globe. This variety of red 
onion has proven superior to all other red 
onions in recent years. Globe shape, flesh 
mils fine grained, tender and of excellent 
avor. 
White Bunching. A variety of onion that is 
grown exclusively as a pulling onion or 
“Scallion.” Generally pulled when not much 
larger than a lead pencil when they will be 
found extremely mild and sweet. 
White Queen. This is the best onion for small 
pickies. It is one of the earliest onions 
grown. The bulbs average 1% inches in 
diameter and are pure white and very mild 
in flavor. They are also unsurpassed for very 
early table use.

dark green and borne in abundance.
