Onions 
Onions are very hardy, and the seeds will germinate in 
cool weather. They can be safely planted just as soon as the 
soil can be prepared. Shallow planting is advisable, 34 to 34 
inch being about right. When 2 or 3 inches tall, the young 
plants can be thinned to prevent crowding. They may be 
thinned again when 6 or 8 inches tall, and the plants removed 
can be used as green onions. After that, they can be pulled as 
needed, and those that are left to become fully ripe can be 
stored for winter.

takes to raise them from seed. Plant Onion Sets near the sur¬ 
face in drills 1 foot apart and 2 inches in the rows. They re¬ 
quire the highest culture to obtain the best results. 1 lb. 15 cts.

Garlic 
BULBS 
As an appetizing dash of flavoring for soups and stews, 
many people use small quantities of this pear-shaped white 
bulb. In large amounts it has a strong odor and flavor. To 
grow garlic in the garden, the several sections or “cloves” 
of each bulb should be separated and set in rows 10 or 12 
inches apart and 4 inches apart in the row. They should be 
taken up in the fall and stored in a cool, dry place until used.
