Onion seed should be gown ~ carlv
IN spring as the earth can he brought
into n dry, friabIe state. If the goiI is
ccI@yey, il should be powed rough in the
fall, and the seed Sown upon the fine, dis
entegratea surface that may then be thus
obtalned without replowing. If the soil
IL inclined to be light, it should be rem.
dered compact with the roller, and sur
iacc ttlth then worked up for the seed.
II inc lana is weedy, the first crop will
probably cost more than its value when
raised. In this case it would be alto
gether better to give a season of fallow
and heavy manuring, or some preparato-
ny that may be easily kept clean. There
IL no better one than early potatoes,
which gives the late summer and fall to
perfect the cleansing of the land.
The ground having been leyeled and
smoothcd, run the plank or a light roller
over the surface-this. to assist in the
first cultivation while the plants are vet
young. Sow in drills, equi distant, and
at the rate OF four or five pounds OF seed
per acre-the latter quantity preferable.
When the crop is three or four inches
high, we prefer to cut out slpernumcr-
AIRY plants, with hoe or other suitable
Implement, leaving the punches of plants
ut distance of nine or eninches. These
may be trimmed to three four or five in
apIace, according az you want the indi-
vidual bulbs large or medium in size.
The seed may be uniformly and accurate
ly sown with any of the better class of
garden drills.

OF the wedding cutivator between, and |
az close to the rows as possible, thinning

above all, at profit to the cultivator.
ms, and never allowing weeds to make
headway once the ground is cleared ,may
be called the sum of good practice in the
cultivation, not only of onions, but of
every other crop in the garden. in fact,
The same cleanliness observed bv our

A few weeks since an article appeared in your columns that did no more than justice to Miss Calhouns merits as as teacher, but which was hardly fair to Mir. w., teacher of the Centre district school. Miss Calhoun has been several years in the South district sc hool, and of course the pupils have had better advantage than they could have had if different teacher had taken the school each term. Mr. W. had been but one term in his school, and one could not expect he could have accepted challenge to pit his schol- ars against those of school so drilled and disciplined as Miss C's. pupils are.
