Little affected by hi t or dry weather and therefore highly recommended for summer greens. Ready for use 3 to 4 weeks after sowing. Pkt. 10c; oz. 20c; J lb. 50c; lb. 587 Onion—Valencia This is the best of the large sweet Spanish Onions. Valued for its exceptionally mild and sweet flavor. We consider it particu- larly de irable because it will grow to truly enormous size if conditions are anywhere near favorable. In some ways it resembles the popular Prizetaker but the onions are considerably larger and consequently heavier in weight. The onions are round and have a beautiful golden yellow skin and pure white flesh. With the proper culture they will develop into magnificent specimens of the prize-winning type. For ex- hibition start the seed indoors early and transplant to the gar- den at the proper season.

Sow the seed thickly in rows and earth up the plants gradually to blanch the lower 3 or 4 inches of the thick stalks. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; i lb. 75c; lb. White Bunching Onion Sugarstick — A really sensational new Sugar Pea, entirely different from all other Peas in existence
