ONIONS 
The Best 
Selected 
Strains 
Some of the growers think I’m finicky 
about onions but I’m always interested 
in every bit of onion seed that I have— 
it must be market g'ardener’s quality. 
You can’t afford to take chances on any¬ 
thing' “just as g'ood.” Sow onion seed 
early—just as soon as you can g'et in the 
ground. One ounce to 100 feet of row. 
When tops fall over, pull up and store in 
a shed until cool weather.
