ONION and GARLIC SETS

It pays to plant sets of the very best quality which have 
nothing in common with the cheap unreliable kinds so often 
offered. Please write for quotations on large quantities as 
prices vary with the market. One lb. of onion sets will 
plant 100 ft. of row; 250 to 325 lbs. are needed for one acre. 
Plant as early in the spring as possible.
