ONION SETS, ETC. 



Onion Sets and Tops should be planted near the surface, in drills about 

 12 inches apart and 4 inches in the rows. They must have high culture 

 for the best results. These last are valuable for early use, and where 

 Onions from seed cannot be raised the first year, they are essential. 



These are the prices ruling in January 

 higher, owing to shrinkage and rotting .
