Although we were among the first t< of American planters to the leading mild large Onions from Southern Europ Burpee's Mammoth Silver King, the t White Victor in, we have always been co tiveiu urging market gardeners to plant foreign types on an extensive scale, reports oi planters using these seeds ] however, have been so highly favorable we wish to mention more particularly capabilities as a profitable market crop. All market gardeners are familial- imported onions sold in our city mark spring, but only a few are aware that in soils these large early bulbs may he resw from choice strains of imported seed. Es is this true where comparatively mild w: or favorable locations permit oi' sowing seed early in the fall; this method pi duces the largest and earliest ripeninj bulbs. Even as far north as Ohio the White Victoria is quite largely planted in the fall to produce early bunch onions in the spring. Where the very large mild onions of the Spanish type are desired, and the season is too dry to produce the largest bulbs directly from seed, the small bulbs or sets can be grown in the spring and planted out again in the fall to produce the very large bulbs the following spring. Even in the heavy clay loam of our Trial § Grounds, however, these Italian varieties frequently produce bulbs much larger iu size than the American types. As the supply of some varie- ties of American Onion Seed is short this season,and prices materi- ally advanced, we would suggest that gardeners having light soils should plant a portion of their laud in these very early mild- flavored Onions. We feel quite sure that the early maturity, large size, handsome appearance," and mild flavor of the bulbs will make the crop
