ONION 
Woodruff's Early Yellow Globe 
Culture Sow in rich, well drain¬ 
ed soil early in the spring, and 
cover a half inch deep. When 
large enough, thin out to allow 
plenty of room for growth, as 
nice bulbs will not grow if 
crowded. An ounce will sow 200 
feet of row; 5 pounds per acre, 
although 10 to 12 pounds may 
be used on ground where onions 
have been grown steadily for 
years.

Woodruff in 1916, and ex¬

of this variety develop 
fewer seeders than from 
standard varieties. Pkt.
