In private gardens the cultivation of the family supply of Onions from sets has | much to recommend it. The amount of labor involved r is less, the crop is surer to grow, and is ready for use weeks in advance of that grown from seed. On a small scale where the cost of sets is not a serious item we urge customers to use them. In fact, the ideal way is to use both sets and seed—the sets for use in the spring and summer, and seed to grow bulbs for winter keeping. Onion Sets should be planted out as early in the spring as the ground is dry enough to work. Plant them in rows 12 inches apart with sets 2 inches apart in the row. Prices on large quantities of onion sets are subject to market changes. Write us when you are ready to buy, stating quantity and kinds wanted. White, Yell
