F. DICKMAN]N'S CATALOGUE OF SEEDS. ONION-Continued. PRIZETAKER, the Genuine. The handsomest, largest yellow globe Onion. A new variety intro- duced but a few years ago which has proved to be an excellent keeper, of finest flavor, handsome shape and enormous size, many single Onions having been raised to weigh five pounds and over, from seed the first year. It is of the same type as those immense imported"^ Onions which can be seen in fruit stores and always command a very high price. The Prize- taker grows always to a perfect globe shape, with a bright straw-colored skin; the necks are very small, and the Onions always ripen up hard. Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; lb., 75c; lb., $ MAMMOTH SILVER KING. This mammoth variety is one of the largest in cultivation, aver- aging from fifteen to twenty-two inches in circumference, and often weighing from two and a half to four pounds each. It matures early and is of uniformly large size and fine shape, being flattened, but thick. The skin is of a beautiful silver-white, flesh snowy and tender, of mild, sweet flavor. We know of no variety of this vegetable which has attracted so much atten- tion as this. Its striking size and handsome appearance, as well as mild flavor, recom- mend it for exhibition at the fairs, for fancy market as well as the home table. Pkt., 5c; oz.,25c; 1^ lb., 75c; lb., $ ITALIAN ONIONS. Italian Onions are very popu- lar, owing to their quick growth, large size and mild flavor, many sorts mak- ingOnions weighing two tofour pounds from seed the first year. The smallest, if set out in the second season, will con tinue to increase in size, instead of run
