CULTURE OF ONION SEED.— Oz. to 100 feet of Drill ; 6 Lbs. to the Acre— Use 

 any good soil, preferably a rich sandy loam, previously cultivated. Fertilize liberally with 

 rotted manure or with artificial manures. Drill in seed to depth of 'A inch, at the rate of 

 A or 5 pounds to the acre for large Onions; 60 to 80 pounds per acre for Sets, or use Sets at 

 the rate of 6 to 10 bushels to the acre, or start Onion Seed in frames, under glass, and trans- 

 plant to open ground 3 inches apart in the row. This excellent plan is often referred to as 

 the "new Onion culture." Onions are quite hardy and may be planted early. The soil 

 may be used year after 3'ear, without rotation of crops, if well fertilized annually. Winter 

 storage demands dryness, coolness, good ventilation and freedom from sudden changes. 

 Spread 18 inches of straw on barn or garret floor, then 6 to 10 inches of Onions; then 2 feet 

 of straw; or keep on shelves in a dry, cool cellar. Set large Onions in open ground in Sep- 

 tember; protect with litter during Winter.
