that it will produce. We highly recommend this spawn for 
those who intend to raise mushrooms for the market.

ONIONS 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed is sufficient for 100 feet of 
drill, 4 pounds for one acre. Onion seed should be sown as early 
in the spring as possible to get the ground in shape, even 
though the weather is cold. Thorough preparation of the soil 
is one of the most essential points in successful onion growing. 
They delight in a rich, deep sandy loam, but excellent yields 
can be obtained from heavier soils properly fertilized. Sow the 
seed in rows 12 to 14 inches apart and about 1% inch deep. After 
they are well started, or about 3 to 4 inches high, thin out to 
stand about 2 inches apart, keeping them well hoed and free 
from weeds at all times throughout the season.
