Mushroom Spawn 
Culture: Mushroom growing is simple but exact, and with the proper care 
heavy and profitable yields are obtained. Many of our customers make money 
by growing them for restaurants, hotels, stores, or private trade. They can 
be grown in cellars, sheds, under greenhouse benches, small caves, etc. Mush- 
rooms produce no seed, but instead a white, fibrous substance called spawn, 
which we furnish in bricks or bottle-shaped cartons. Our stock is always fresh, 
pure culture, and selected with the utmost care to insure a crop of pure white 
mushrooms of perfect uniformity for color, size, and shape. Fresh horse manure, 
unvaried temperature, and controlled moisture are the chief essentials to success.

Onion Sets 
Smail, clean sets, vigorous, and of choicest quality 
Culture: Onion sets should be planted as early in the spring as the ground can 
be worked. Make furrows about 1 in. deep and press the onions into the surface 
lightly but do not cover; have the rows 12 to 18 in. apart and set the onions 
about 2 in. apart in the row. Green onions may be had in a few weeks. In the 
vicinity of Philadelphia, onions large enough to cook are ready in early July, 
but if large, ripe onions are wanted, it is usually about the middle of July before 
they can be harvested. By planting sets, onions can be produced for market or 
household use four to six weeks earlier than can be had from seed. A pound of 
onion sets will plant a row about 100 ft. long. Use 250 to 325 lbs. to an acre. 
The early lifting of an onion crop allows for the sowings of quick maturing 
crops on the same ground the same season. Delivered in the spring only.

should be separated and set in rows 1 ft. apart, and 4 in. apart in the rows.
