ONION SETS. 
Bottom Onions, or Onion Sets, are produced by sowing the seed 
thickly late in spring, in beds or drills, and about the end of 
August, or whenever the tops die down, the little bulbs or sets 
are gathered and kept spread thinly in a dry airy loft, and re-set 
in the spring, to make large onions.
