HYBRID ONIONS 
Entirely new in the vegetable field are 
hybrid onions, offering the advantages of 
(1) adapting desirable types to certain 
areas where hitherto they did not grow 
satisfactorily; (2) higher yields of high 
quality bulbs; (3) greater uniformity m 
size, shape and color . 
An extensive program is being carried on by 
the Asgrow Department of Breeding and Re- 
search from which seed of certain hybrid onions 
is already available. Each is known by the 
word Asgrow followed by Y, W or R, denoting 
yellow, white or red, and the individual number. 
Thus Asgrow Y40 is a mild sweet type like 
Early Yellow Globe but about 10 days earlier. 
Ask your dealer for Asgrow hybrid onion seed.

should be sown early, in rows 12-18” 
apart. Thin to 3-6" apart.

finely crimped and curled that it looks almost 
like moss.

tive appearance and quality with bright green

PARSNIP 
Parsnips require the whole season to ma- 
ture and should therefore be sown early, 
in rows 18-24” apart. The soil must be 
well worked; lumps, stones or new manure 
will lead to forked and irregular roots. A 
few radishes are frequently sown at the 
same time to mark the row. Thin out 
3-4" apart. Frost improves the roots. 
Hollow Crown: The most popular variety. Broad 
shouldered with pronounced crown and long, 
tapering roots; fine grained, tender. 
All-American: Of medium length with wide 
shoulder; flesh white; core small.
