A. Simmers, TorontoâReliable Vegretable Seeds SIMMERS' ONION SEEDS ^ GermanâZiuiebel. FrenchâOcnon. {One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill; U pounds is sujjlcient for an acre.) CcLTUKEâThe onion thriTes best in a rather deep, rich, loamy soil, and unlike most vege- tables, sncceeds well when cultivated on the same ground for successive years. The best culture requires that the ground should be deeply trenched and manured the previous autunm, and laid up in ridges during the winter to pulverize. As early in the spring as the ground is in working order, commence operations by leveling the ground ^^â¢ith a rake, and tread it firmly; sow thinly, in drills about a quarter of an inch deep and one foot apart; cover with fine soil and press down with the back of a spade or a light roller. "When the young plants are strong enough, thin gradually so that they stand three or four inches apart. Keep the surface of the ground open and fi-ee from weeds by frequent hoeing, taking care not to stir the soil too deeply, or to collect it about the growing bulbs. ^ Yellow Varieties LARGE YELLOW GLOBE DANVERSâThe most popular yellow onion aU over the country. Our strain of seed ha^ been selected most carefully, the flatter onions being thrown out. The name "Globe ''in this connection must be taken comparatively, as the True Danvers Onion is never so perfectly globe-shaped as the Southport Yellow Globe. AU the perfectly globe-shaped varieties are later maturing than The Yellow Globe Danvers. We cannot too strongly recommend our seed of this variety ; from careful trials we know ti is unsurpassed by any strain.
