Tiik follow- ing varieties have been tested in all sectionsof the United State* and have giv- en good satis- faction. We reeo ni m e n d them as very desirable for summer and autumn mar- kets, because they general- ly command ready sales at good prices, especially when grown by the trans- planting method; they are also valuable for the family gar- den. Large quanti- ties are grown South and shipped to north- ern markets, but as they are not j;ood winter keepers we advise growers North who have not tested them to rely chiefly extra early barletta. on the American Onions for their main crop. All Spanish and Italian varieties are sweet and mild flavored, more so than the American (in ions, and a re of very rapid growth. Extra Early Barletta—The very earliest onion in cultivation. When matured the tops die down, leaving beautiful and perfect little bulbs. The color is pure white, flavor mild and delicate, perfectly adapted for pickling and table use, and makes a pretty buueh onion, especially if lmhwu Lv the transplanting method. Pkt . 5c; 15c; 34 40c ; 16., Round White Silver Skin—Uniformly small, round and hand- some, with an opaque White sttin which does not turn green upon ex- posure to the sun.

In the South the seed can be sown in autumn, and large onions gathered in March. Pkt., 5
