Onion Plants 
Matured onions can be 
secured from the plants 
much sooner than from 
seed. It is recommended 
to plant the rows sixteen 
inches apart and the 
plants three to four inches 
apart in the rows. If plant¬ 
ed 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 guaran¬ 
teed. 
Not less than two bun¬ 
dles sold. We are grow¬ 
ing quite an acreage in 
the Northwest, and quo¬ 
tations made are on these 
plants. In case of exces¬ 
sive winter killing when 
we might be compelled 
to secure some plants in 
Texas, price would be 
higher.
