IS THE STORRS & HARRISON CO.'S CATALOGUE. EXT3A SELECTED YELLOW GLOBE DANVERS. ONION. A strong, deep, rich and loamy soil is most suit- able for this crop. Muck beds well drained to the depth of two feet give large yields. The ground should be heavily dressed with well rotted manure, and plowed a moderate depth, taking a narrow fur- row in order to more thoroughly mix the manure with the soil; if possible the plowing should be done in the fall. As early in the spring as the ground is in working order, harrow it thoroughly and make as fine and level as possible; sow thinly in drills one- fourth inch deep and fourteen inches apart. Keep the surface of the ground open and free from weeds, but do not ridge up to the growing bulbs. One oz. will sow one hundred feet of drill, 4 to 5 tbs. per acre. Market" gardeners and others requiring Onion seed in large quantities should write for spec- ial prices. Extra Selected Yellow Globe Dan vers. The finest shaped, best colored and largest cropper of any of the yellow onions, and not to be compared with the ordinary stocks of Yellow Globe Danvers. We grow this strain from carefully selected bulbs, everything being rejected that does not come up to the standard in shape and size. By this careful system of selection we have produced an onion entirely distinct from the old type of Yellow Globe Danvers. Its points of superiority over the ordi- nary Yellow Danvers are earliness of ripening, smallness of neck, perfect globe shape and uni- formity of shape and color. It is an immense crop- per and will yield more marketable onions to the acre than any strain we have ever tried. Pkt. 5c, oz. 20c, yAX£>. 60c, lb. $ By express 5 tbs. or more $ per lb.
