Standard Vegetable PLANTS and ROOTS 
ONION PLANTS 
Texas Started Plants 
These famous Texas onion plants pro- 
duce those large, mild, sweet onions that 
are so difficult to grow from seed here 
in the North. Or they can be pulled 
early for the first young green onions on 
your table. If allowed to develop, they 
reach creaming or even slicing size, 
very quickly. Seed is planted for us in 
Texas during the fall and the plants 
grow during the winter so they are 
hardy and can be lifted and shipped 
early in spring, for Northern planting as 
soon as ground can be worked. Orders 
accepted according to crop, and are 
shipped at proper planting time. 
SWEET SPANISH or 
VALENCIA 
A mild, sweet, giant onion, of the true 
Spanish type. Bulbs globular with small 
neck, firm and delicious at all stages of 
growth. They will produce the finest 
quality early onions for market, 
BERMUDA ONION PLANTS 
We can usually supply Yellow Bermuda and White Bermuda or 
Crystal Wax. Bermudas form flat type bulbs. In case of shortage 
we reserve the right to substitute. Order early.

MINNESOTA 4-WAY CROSS — A new and better 
asparagus developed in Minnesota by combining 
in crosses, four selected superior strains of Wash- 
ington Rust Resistant. The number of stalks pro- 
duced per plant averages about the same as ordinary Washington 
strains, however, Minnesota 4-Way Cross produces larger, heavier stalks 
so that the number of pounds produced per 100 plants averages 30% to 
35%, higher. It’s significantly more profitable for market growing and out- 
standing for the home gardener. Supply limited. One year roots: 25 for 
$1.65. 50 for $3.00, 100 for $5.00, postpaid. (Market growers write for
