Rotation la Beet
at(Bjr,lt A WBATHERSTONB.)
Now land Is not adapted to onion-
trowing, and this crop should always
follow some crop that has been under
hoe, and free from weede. Onions
should follow potatoes, beans or corn.
The land should be well plowed In
the autumn, disked nnd harrowed In
the spring until it is as line as gar-
den-soil.
Always manure heavily before
breaking up the land In the fall. On
new land cowpeas are excellent for
bringing the land into shape.
Onions should bo grown under a
aystem of crop rotation, but the crops
used in the rotation must bo those

Experiments at the Maine experi-

trimming reached from S to 60 per
cent., and the gain by weight was
very marked. In one Instance reach

cropping with onions will oause the
land to beoome diseased and filled

One of the most Important mnp
In onion-culture Is to mix the fertiliser
with the soli well. On land that is not
thoroughly drained, plow In beda, leav
lng a double furrow between the beds
to carry off surplus water. Theee
beds may be 76 to 160 feet In width.

condition for either aeed or trans-
planting.
The feeding-roots of the onion run
close to the surface, and should not be
disturbed by deep cultivation. After
a rain, break up the eurfaee of the
■oil by meane of a a tool rake. As
soon aa the plants are growing weU,
the cultivator should be started and
kept going, in order to keep the soil
In good condition, and to prevent
weeds.

tool for thla purpose. Some of the
