Properly handled and stored they keep quite well and liring good prices. Prizetaker. The large size and handsome appearance of tliis Onion makes it equally desirable for the home garden or for market. It is strictly "fancy," and is sold on fruit stands during the fall, as "Spanish" Onion. The true Prizetaker Onion is globe-shape, has pale yellow skin and white flesh, which is very mild and of pleasantly pungent flavor. Large Onions are grown the first year provided seeds are sown very early in the spring. Where extra large specimen bulbs for exhibition purposes are wanted, seeds should be sown under glass in February, to be trans- planted into rich soil outdoors as soon as the weather permits.
