Superior Onion Sets 
In private gardens the cultivation of © 
the family supply of Onions from sets | 
has much to recommendit. Theamount } 
of labor involved is less, the danger of 
loss from . maggots 4 
and other insects is © 
considerably reduc-— 
ed, the crop is surer 
to grow, and is 
ready for use weeks — 
in advance of that 
grown from _ seed. — 
On a small scale wher 
the cost of Sets is not a } 
serious item we urge CuSs- 
tomers to use them. In 
fact the ideal way is to 
use both sets and seed— 
the sets for use in the 
spring and summer, and 
seed to grow bulbs for 
winter keeping.
