Dreer's Little Gem 



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 pound will plant a 50 foot row.
