Summary

[edit]
Description

134 ALLIACEOUS PLANTS.
Fusiform, or Cow-Horn.
Corne de Bceuf. Vil.
This is a large onion, growing from eight inches to a foot
in length. It tapers rather regularly from the base to the
top, and is frequently bent or curved in the form of a horn ;
whence the name. Skin copper-red. It is late, lacks com-
pactness, is very liable to degenerate, decays soon after being
harvested, and must be considered more curious than useful.
Intermediate Red Wethersfield.
An early variety of the common Large Red. Bulb of me-
dium size, flattened ; neck small ; color deep purple.
It is rather pungent, yet milder than the Large Red ; keeps
well ; and is grown to a considerable extent, in certain locali-
ties in New England, for shipping.
James's Keeping.
James's Long Keeping. De James. Vil.
This is an English hybrid, said to have been originated by
a Mr. James, an extensive market-gardener in Surry, Eng.
The bulb is pyriform, or pear-shaped ; and measures four
inches and upwards in depth, and two inches or more at its
broadest diameter. Skin copper-yellow, — the coating next
under it reddish-brown ; flavor strong. It is not early, but is
much prized for its long keeping ; the bulbs not sprouting so
early in spring as those of most varieties.
Large Red.
Wethersfield Large Red.
Bulb sometimes roundish, but, when pure,
comparatively flat. It is of very large size ;
and, when grown in favorable soil, often

, measures five inches or more in diameter,

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 file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

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.
