Culture.—(lulons do best on a rich loam, previously cultivated for. two years. Stllf clav and light sand are equally unfavorable. The landshould be hlghlv fertilized with well-rotted manure, complete fertUiz-ers, etc. Fresh stable manure has a tendency to produce soft in 4 to 5 lbs. of seed per acre, one-half Inch deep. If sets are wanted,use (iO to SO lbs. of seed per acre. Six to ten bushels of sets will plant an acre. Fine marketable size onions (according to variety planted) areeasily produced the first vear from early spring sown seed. Cultureshould be frequent though shallow. The same ground may be used foronions, season after season, if well fertilized annually. Bone meal is anexcellent fertilizer. Winter storage demands dryness and protectionfrom sudden changes. Onions should never be handled while frozen. MAULESLARGE RED WETHERSFIELD. This has been one of my leading specialties formore than twenty year
