We are headquarters far Onion Sets, and will sell you first-class sets at the very lowest price. Good Onion Seed is of the Utmost Importance. Fully realizing this, we have for some years made a Specialty op Onion Seed, and have all our crops raised under special contract, subject to careful supervision. Our Onion Seed, all grown prom choice selected bulbs, critically examined "before "being set out for seed. In quality it is vastly superior to much that is put upon the market, often grown by persons too inexperienced or too careless to select fine, well-shaped bulbs. In vitality it is very strong, being carefully tested. The very rapid increase in our Onion Seed trade, particu- larly among market gardeners, many of whom order one hundred and more pounds, is the very best evidence that our Onion Seed is unexcelled in quality.

If grown to make large Onions, thin plants gradually, so that they stand two or three inch
