Onion Plants 
Onion plants are being 
extensively used In some 
districts for producing 
large early matured on¬ 
ions, as matured onions 
can be secured from the 
plants much sooner than 
from seed. The plants 
are good keepers so that 
there is little or no dan¬ 
ger of them not growing. 
Besides, they are one of 
the easiest plants to 
grow. It is recommended 
to plant the rows sixteen 
inches apart and the 
plants three to four 
inches apart in the rows. 
If planted in this manner 
it will take about 100,000 
to the acre. Do not plant 
too deep. Plants are put 
up in bundles of about 
100 and sixty bundles to 
a crate. Count not guar¬ 
anteed.

CLOVER LEAF BUNCHING— Do not make 
the mistake of thinking that all varieties of 
onions are equally good for bunching. White 
varieties are always the best. This is the very 
best variety known for bunching. Recommend 
thick sowing. 
Not less than two bundles sold. We are grow¬ 
ing quite an acreage in the Northwest, and 
quotations made are on these plants. In case of 
excessive winter killing when we might be 
compelled to secure some plants in Texas, price 
would be higher.
