GERMINATION TESTS 
Harris’ Onion Seed is given thorough tests for germination, and 
the exact results from such tests are marked on each package so 
that the purchaser can tell just what proportion of the seed is of 
good vitality. We shall be glad to tell any onion grower just how 
our seed of any varieties he is interested in germinates in our tests 
before he buys the seed. 
Onion Sets 
One quart (1 lb.) will set 75 to 100 feet of row, depending 
upon the size of the sets. 
It is very easy to raise onions from sets and they should be grown in 
every garden. If the sets are set out early in the spring, nice green onions 
can be pulled in a few weeks. The onions grow large enough to cook about 
the first of July in this latitude. Two or three weeks later they become 
large, ripe onions which can be kept through the winter if desired. The 
sets should be planted about 2 inches apart and covered an inch deep. 
For economical use of ground in the small garden it is a good plan to 
plant the sets about one inch apart in rows. Pull every other one for green 
onions in the spring and leave the rest for boiling onions. This will give 
you a continuous supply throughout the summer.
