S. N. & S. CO’S. PEERLESS ONION SEED 
(One ounce for 100 feet of drill; 4 to 5 pounds in drills per acre) 
HOW TO GROW ONIONS FROM SEED 
Sow seed as early in the spring as the ground can be worked, in rows 1 to 1% feet apart. 
Cover the 
seed lightly. The soil best suited to grow onions is one that is reasonably fertile, well drained, and well 
prepared. 
ire If fully matured onions are wanted, thin the seedlings when 3 to 4 inches tall, to stand suf- 
ficiently far apart to develop without touching one another. 
The largest onions are produced by sowing 
the seed in hotbed early in January or February and transplanting seedlings to the open ground 6 inches 
apart. 
onions are harvested.
