ONIONS 
CULTURE.—Use one ounce seed for 100 feet of row; 
for sets, 50 pounds to the acre. For sets, sow the seeds 
as early as possible in the spring, very thickly, in drills. 
As soon as the tops die off in summer, remove them to a 
dry, airy place, and early in the following spring replant 
them by placing sets in shallow drills 12 inches apart 
and about 4 inches apart in the drills. They may also be 
grown to full size during the first season by sowing thinly 
in drills 1 foot apart and about inch deep, in March or 
early in April, manuring them well and thinning them 
out to stand 8 to 4 inches apart in the drills.
