Choice Onion Sets 



For the small garden we recommend the use of Onion Sets as 

 the risk of failure is almost eliminated and the crop is ready much 

 earlier than when grown from seed. Onion Sets should be planted 

 in rows 12 inches apart, with sets 2 inches apart in the rows. 

 1 quart will plant a 50 foot row. Sent "prepaid" in quanti- 

 ties offered below.

For Seasoning and Garnishing 



Culture— Succeeds best in a mellow, rich soil. Sow thickly 

 early in April in rows 18 to 24 inches apart and ^-inch deep. 

 Thin out the plants to stand 6 inclies apart in the row. The seed 

 germinates slowly, plants taking from three to four weeks to make 

 their appearance and sometimes failing to come up in dry weather. 

 To insure prompt germination, soak the seed a few hours in 

 warm water, or sprout in damp earth, and sow when it swells 

 or sprouts. For winter use, protect in a frame or light cellar. 

 One ounce of seed for 150 feet of drill.
