CuLTURE—Onions do best on a rich loam, previously culti- 
vated for two years. The land should be highly fertilized 
with well-rotted manure, complete fertilizers, ete. Fresh 
stable manure has a tendency to produce soft onions. For 
dry (fall) onions a packet will sow about 50 feet of drill, an 
ounce about 300 feet, 4 to 5 lbs. of seed per acre. Sow in drills 
12 to 18 inches apart as early in spring as possible and cover 
to 80 lbs. of seed per acre. Fine marketable size onions (ac- 
cording to variety planted) are easily produced the first year 
from early spring sown seed, maturing in from 65 to 120 days. |
