Sets. 
In localities that are infested with the Onion Fly, rendering the cultivation of onions from seed difficult and un- 
profitable, these sets are strongly recommended. Planted and treated in a similar manner to Shallots, they produce large 
bulbs of the " Ailsa Craig ” type, and are untroubled by Onion Fly at all stages. The increasing demand for " Sets ” 
is an indication of the success with which their culture is attended ... ... ... ... ... ... Per lb. 2/-
