Early Yellow Globe 
ONIONS 
To grow large bulbs 1 oz. to 100 ft. of drill; 4 to 5 lbs. 
per acre. To grow sets 10 oz. to 100 ft. of drill; 50 lbs. 
per acre. 
The Onion must have a clean and very rich soil. Use 
well rotted manure freely, and get the seed in as early 
as possible in the spring, no matter if it is cold and 
unpleasant. If onions do not get a good growth before 
hot, dry weather, the crop is sure to be a failure. Keep 
the soil mellow and clear of weeds. Sow in shallow drills, 
not less than a foot apart nor more than half an inch 
deep. As onions grow on top of the ground, they may 
be allowed to remain pretty thick, no matter if they 
crowd each other. In hoeing, destroy weeds and keep 
the ground mellow; do not cover the young bulbs with 
earth. Harvest while tops are partially green and just 
after they fall over. This is indication of proper maturi- 
ty for best storage results. 
EARLY YELLOW GLOBE—(100 days) Matures me- 
dium large uniform globe-shaped bulbs which keep 
exceptionally well.
