strong, hardy plants. They are tied in bunches of about

that will top the market. 
CULTURE. Sow just as early as possible, that is, when 
the ground can be worked up nicely. Have your seedbed 
in perfect shape, for onions are slow in coming up and 
require close cultivation. It is sometimes advisable to 
mix a few radish seeds with your onion seed so as to 
allow for earlier cultivation. One ounce of seed will 
sow 200 feet in drill % inch to 1 inch deep, 4 to 5 pounds 
of seed to an acre drilled 13 to 14 inches apart for hand 
cultivation or 20 to 22 inches apart for cultivating with 
tractor. Cultivate often. Do not allow soil to bake. 
All onions and other vegetable varieties best suited for 
market are indicated by a star (*%) after the name of the 
variety.
