RELIABLE SEEDS 
Onions 
CULTURE — In the 
spring as early as the 
ground can be prepared, 
sow seeds in drills fifteen 
inches apart. When the 
young plants are strong 
enough, thin so they 
stand about three inches 
apart. Four pounds of 
seed or more are usually 
sown to the acre. As 
soon as up begin hoeing 
and cultivating. Keep 
clean until ripe.
