"Our people at the Coiineetieiit oflice 

 advise us that sweet corn promises fairly 

 well, in s])ite of the practieal failure of

GROWING ONIONS FOR SEED. 



'*! wish int'ormalioM about raisinji 

 IMizetaker onions for seed in the Han 

 .loaijuin \ alley,"' says a correspondent 

 of the Califoiiiia Tultivator. "Would it 

 be ;i prolitable iiivi'stment ? What kind 

 of land is best, and will the largest 

 onions ))roduce more or a better yrado 

 of seeil than the nu'dinm size ones? Wlu'ii 

 slionM 1 set them out, and how many 

 will I reijuire to sid an aire.' WouM also 

 like to know something about the liar- 

 \estiii^ and [treparinjf seed for market." 



''I would cleeni it unwise for an iiiex- 

 ]iei'ieiU'ed person to attem]>t^ to ;,'rcnv 

 onion seed for market.'' says the editor.
