Cipollo Oignon Cebolla Zwiehel 



Culture. — For onion culture, the ground should be prepared the previous Autumn by plowing or spad- 

 ing deeply, using plenty of well-rotted barnyard manure. A rather strong, deep, rich, loamy soil is con- 

 sidered most suitable. Sow the seed as early in Spring as practicable, in shallow drills 1 foot apart, covering 

 with fine soil, which should be pressed down by the use of a light roller or the back of a spade. When the 

 young plants are strong enough thin out to 4 inches apart. Keep the surface of the ground open and free 

 from weeds by hoeing frequently. 1 oz. will sow 100 feet of row, 5 lbs. is required for 1 acre.
