AUTUMN SPICE 
611 lowa 44 
The Best Keeper 
If you want a firm, medium-sized, well- 
colored onion that will keep all winter, plant 
Iowa 44. It is becoming increasingly popular 
on muck because it is a good yielder and the 
handsome bulbs are of superior appearance 
and quality when taken out of storage in the 
winter. 
The shape is an attractive globe or deep 
globe with small necks and the heavy thick 
skin has a dark golden brown color that is 
even superior to Brigham. Iowa 44 is an ex- 
ceptionally fine storage onion and we highly 
recommend it. See prices at right.

603 Beltsville Bunching (New) 
An Improved Type for Scallions 
Developed by Dr. Henry Jones of the U. S. 
D. A., this excellent new bunching onion is in 
great demand by growers in many sections. 
The tops grow somewhat taller and more 
erect than Japanese Bunching and make a 
better bunch that stays fresher-looking on 
the market. It is a vigorous grower with its 
fine appearance, clear white skin, crisp white 
flesh and strong dark green tops. It has less 
multiplying tendency than the regular but is 
definitely preferred for summer and fall 
crops, and is also used to winter over. See 
prices at right. 
620 Sweet Spanish—Utah Strain 
Large Mild Sweet Onions of Finest Quality 
Sweet Spanish makes bigger onions of better 
quality than other kinds and is much more 
resistant to thrips and adverse conditions. 
Although somewhat later in maturity, it can 
be grown successfully from seed or green- 
house-grown plants almost anywhere in the 
East. Large and handsome, the onions often 
weigh over a pound and the flesh is white, 
sweet and very mild. They have a uniformly 
deep globe shape with small necks and heavy 
golden brown skin. Ours is the “Jumbo” 
strain, selected for extra size, uniformity and 
quality. Highly recommended to all growers 
for quality markets. See prices above. 
An ounce of seed will sow 125 feet of row. 
It requires 4 to 6 lbs. of seed per acre. 
618 Spotlight (New) 
Harris’ Superior New Storage Hybrid 
We are proud to announce this new storage 
hybrid of our own development. It is a me- 
dium-sized, very firm onion that usually out- 
yields Brigham and keeps almost as well. 
The bulbs are smooth and attractive in 
appearance with a slightly flattened globe 
shape, small necks and a good thick skin of 
glossy brown color. Very uniform and a heavy 
producer, Harris’ Spotlight has given excel- 
lent performances on muck in New York, 
Michigan and Wisconsin. The crop makes size 
and matures earlier than Brigham, a safety 
factor in adverse seasons. We highly recom- 
mend it. See prices below.

treatment at extra cost: 1 to 3 lbs.—$1.75

of fine color. Excellent for prepackaging as
