Seed 
C U L TURE. 
A strong, deep, 
rich and loamy 
soil is most suit¬ 
able, or even a 
black sandy loam. 
Muck ground, 
drained to the 
depth of two feet, 
gives large yields. 
Tlie ground should 
be heavily dressed with well-rotted manure, and plowed a 
moderate depth, taking a narrow furrow; if possible the plow¬ 
ing should be done in the fall. As early in the spring as the 
ground is in working order, harrow it thoroughly and make 
as fine and level as possible; sow thinly in drills one-fourth 
inch deep and 14 inches apart. Do not ridge up to the growing 
bulbs. One ounce will sow 106 feet of drill; 4 to 5 pounds 
per acre for large onions; 50 to 60 pounds for sets.
