WHY PLAXT ONION SKTS? Because they produce 

 directly an Onion ready for market or the household 

 from four to si.Y weeks earlier than can be done by 

 the sowing of the seed, and the product of the set is 

 identical with that of the seed. This gives the market 

 gardener ample time to sell his entire crop at a high 

 price, besides enabling him to sow for another crop the 

 Bame year.
