CULTURE—The Onion is most successfully grown in a deep, rich 
loamy soil, and, unlike most vegetables, does best when cultivated 
in the same ground for a succession of years. Manure the ground 
well in the fall, and turn up in ridges, during the winter, and as 
early as it will work in the spring rake or harrow thoroughly so as 
to get the soil fine and level. Sow thinly in drills half an inch deep, 
rows 12 inches apart, and cover with fine soil, pressing it down. 
Keep the ground free from weeds and thin out the young plants 
so they may stand 3 or 4 inches apart. The small onions pulled 
may be eaten green and the balance allowed to mature. 1 oz. to 
100 feet of drill; 4 to 5 Ibs. to the acre.
