J HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR
Yellow Globe Danvers
Attractive Uniform Shape - Mild, But Full Flavored
Quick to Mature - - Remarkably Good Keeper
This is one of the oldest American varieties, which takes its
name from the town near which it was first grown, and has al-
ways been a general favorite. Its keeping quality is supremely
good. With this exception it cannot be said to excel greatly
in any one particular, but it is so constantly good in all respects,
that it is fully equal to any, and is esteemed by many as the
one best all around Onion, so that the majorrity of those who
grow only one sort choose Yellow Globe Danvers. There is a
considerable variation in the shape of gtep this v a r i e t y as
offered by various houses — shapes
flat to deep oval. We have consist-
original type, which, but for a slight
to bottom, is a perfect sphere. The

HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR LARGE
Red Wethersfield
= ONION
A Leading Variety in all Sections Produces Enormous Onions
Clean, Solid and Heavy A Sure Cropper and Long Keeper
jg^ Those who prefer an Onion with an abundance of flavor
and who consider the extremely mild varieties insipid , will
be well satisfied with Wethersfield. Indeed for boiling
purposes such highly flavored sorts are preferable,
though they are generally considered less suitable for
slicing in salads. This is a general favorite everywhere,
and is largely grown both for market and private use.
It shapes up very quickly, insuring a good supply dur-
ing the growing season, while its keeping quality is
equal to the best. The exterior color is dark glossy red,
and the flesh is faintly tinged with the same color. Our
stock is grown from the best bulbs, and cannot be ex-
celled. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 15c. oz., 40c. \i lb.,

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
