ONION SETS 
CULTURE. Onion sets should be planted out 
as early as the ground is dry enough to 
work, in rows one foot apart with sets 2 to 
3 inches apart. On this basis, one pound 
will occupy about 100 linear feet; or plant 
300 to 500 pounds to the acre. When raised 
from sets, the Onions can be used in the 
green state’ in June, or they will be ripened 
off by July. Price subject to market changes.

SMOOTH WHITE. 130 days. Slightly longer than Hol- 
low Crown Thick Shoulder or Guernsey. 
evenly tapered and of an attractive light color. Should 
prove very acceptable to growers who prefer a type . 
without too broad shoulder and a less abrupt taper 
than the shorter varieties. Hardy and a good keeper. 
The whitest in color and does not discolor as quickly 
out of the ground as most other varieties. 
Peas 
CULTURE. Peas mature earliest in a light, rich soil; 
for general crop a moderately heavy soil is best. Com- 
mence sowing early varieties as soon as ground can be 
worked, continue for a succession every two weeks until 
June. Sow the early, second early and late varieties 
at the same time for a succession. Sow seed 2, 3 or 4 
inches deep, according to early, medium or late season, 
an inch apart; dwarf kinds in rows 2 to 2% feet apart, 
3 to 4 feet for tall kinds. One pound for 100 feet of 
drill 110 to 175 pounds for an acre. 
varieties are more susceptible to cold, wet weather than 
the small, round, hard sorts, hence should not be 
planted very early except in warm, dry locations. Brush 
can be used to advantage on all varieties. but the var- 
ious dwarf growing sorts take care of themselves very 
well without. The crop should be ‘gathered as fast 
as it is fit for use. If even a few pods begin to ripen, 
not only will new pods cease to grow, but those partly 
advanced will stop growing.
