ONION SETS 



One quart to 50 feet of row; eight to ten bushels per 

 acre, according to size of sets. 



All onions attain full size and maturity the same 

 season from spring-sown seed, yet many people desire 

 to plant out sets for earliest Onions for the table or to 

 use green or for bunching.

Our Silver Skin Sets are choice Pennsylvania 

 grown, and are superior to Western grown sets this 

 season, which are badly damaged. Prices in quantity 

 upon request. 



The price per bushel is subject to change with the 

 market; write for quotations.

 box in the cellar will give a supply.
