FROM SEED 
One package of seed will sow 20 feet of row; 
1 ounce 200 feet; 4 to 5 pounds an acre. 
As early in the spring as possible, sow the 
seed in rich soil in rows 10 to 15 inches apart, 
covering one-half inch deep and firming earth 
well down. When plants are well started, culti- 
vate and weed. Thin to 3 inches apart in the 
rows as spring Onions are required for the 
trade. For a very early crop, sow the seed in 
the cold frame in February and transplant when 
large enough,

Onion for the home and market garden. It is

is crisp, mild, and excellently flavored. Keeps 
especially well and is excellent for shipping.
