1892 was onions ; in the fall I spread on about six cords 

 of stable manure and ploughed it in ; in the spring of 



1893 J gave the land a good harrowing and picked oif the 

 rocks. I used Stockbridge root manure, put on with corn 

 planter, four hundred pounds to the acre, the rows being 

 three feet apart. I then sowed the seed with Sargent's 

 onion machine, running in the drills I had previously 

 made with the corn planter. 1 weeded and thinned them 

 out twice and cultivated them eight times.
