We have never planted onions for any
purpose as late as May, nor do we know
of any instance where such late planting
has been made with success. We doubt
very much II even under the best condi-
lions it would prove satisfactory. Our
own experience in onion growing, which
has been extensive in the past twenty
five years, would not warrant advising
if planted, or sown, rather, any time in
April. We have grown onion sets fire.
quently, but have never sown the seeds
later than March Is. The middle of
February we regard as the best time for
sowing. There are two ways of growing
sets. One broadcast on beds, four feet
wide or in drills Is to "a inches apart. We
should always choose the latter unless
we could use land that was quite free
from weeds and grass, and such is not
easily found anywhere.
Sets can be grown on any good sandy
soil. After blowing it get it .pulverized
and smooth with harrow or rake, calling
in the aid of the roller also if inclined
to be very light and porous.
A distance of eighteen inches between
rows will allow the use of a narrow
sweep or cultivating harrow to help in
but the crop can be made very salts
factorily without using horse power at
all. Still, if we were going to SOW as
much as an acre, we would use the blow
say, sow the seeds thickly along at the
rate of is pounds per acre (abouO. To lay
OFT the QrlilS use SLrlD Oh board or 4
inches wide which will make a furrow that
width and just deep enough to get the
seeds under the soil. Not deeper than half
an inch at the most. Before sowing it is
a good plan to whiten the drills with
land-plaster which will aid the eye con-
siderably in getting the seeds sown uni
formly. Cover lightly with a rake, then
run roller, a heavy barrel will answer
the purpose very well-along the drills to
firm the soil and hasten termination.
1t is well also to test the seeds before
sowing so as to know about what proper
ton can be relied on to grow and sow ac-
cordingly If first class in quality that
is 80 per cent good, 10 pounds of seed
will suffice for an acre and allow of u or
Is seeds to each square inch. If the seeds
appear not to be f1rst-class. use more-20
seeds or more to the square inch.
The main thing now is to keep ahead of
the weeds. Don't let them get foothold
whatever you do. Any weeds that spring
up in the drills must be pulled with thumb
and finger. Let the cultivation be just as
shallow as possible, but let it be prompt

Growing onion Sets.

How could 1 plant onion seeds for the
purpose of growing "sets?" From what
l have read, I judge 1 might plant in
May, about the first, and make sets that
l could set out in October, or thereabouts
to make an early crop in the following
spring. Is this so? Would be thankful

DETECTlvE BARR.

In Spruce Hill township this coun-
tv, a good deal of stealing hes been
done, running back through the past
year. Wheat, meat and other prod
ucl- Of the fa' m are the things that
were stolen, and ss consequence a
great del OF talk has been indrlged
in by p op,e in that community
While the tr TX was going on after the
ia'ost theft Of wheat, man appeared
among the people In Spruce Hill and
profe csed to be detective Barr. He
wss arque inted with all the talk that
was afoat in the valley, sud said he
had come to sift the matter, aud
therefore certain parties would have
to go to Miffl ntown on Friday, June
26 for hearing. He went among
the people and summoned number
of men t. appear here at the county
seat for q preliminary hearing. His
summons was verbal, but no one
suspected him of Being bogus de-
tcciive, and Of course accepted the
summons in good faith and without a
thoueht of suspicion, and appeared
here in MiHlintown promptly last
Friday, to begin a movement that it
was hopsd would open the door to a
clue to lead to the arrest OF the per-
SONS that have been doing the steal
in q in Spruce Hill township. Tsthe
su, prise of everyone detective Barr
did not put in appearance, and now
there is IS much desire in the valley
t, know who detective Barr is, as
there is to know who the thieves are.

The PeRnsyIvanln Railroads.
Popular Excursions to
the SeaSh0re.
SO FOR TwFLyE DAYS.

No other summer outing appeals
so strongly to the people of Western
Pennsylvania as the Pennsylvania
Railroads popular excursions to tie
sea coast Of New Jsi sey. For years
they have been looked forward to as
the holiday event of each summer,
and every season has seen them grow
more popular The reason of the
great favor in which they are held is
easy to see. The rate of SO for the
round trip is phenom enally low, con-
siderins the distance and the high
character of the service; the limit of
twelve days just fits the time set
apart for the average vacation, and
the dates of the excursions are most
conveniently adjusted. There is also
the widest field for choice in the Sc
lection of the resort Atlantic City,
Cape May. Sea Islo City and Ocean
City are the choicest of the Atlantic
coast resorts, and anyone of them
may be visited under these arrange
ments.
The dates of the excursions are Ju
ly 9 and %. August 6 and 20, and
the rates will be as follows: - Pitts
burg, Uniontown, Connellsville. Scott ..
dale, Greensburg, Butler and La
trobe, SO; Johnstown, 1925; Cres-
son, so; Altoona, So; Tyrone, ST.
65; Clearfeld, So 80; Bed ford, $3.50;
Huntingdon, s7.10; Mif1in, $5.65;
proportionate rates from other points
A special train of parlor cars and
day coaches will leave Pittsburg on
each of the above mentioned dates at
s IS A. NJ, and connect at Philadel-
phia with special train via the new
Delaware River Bridge route, land
ing passengers at Atlantic City in
IL hours from Pittsburg; or passen-
gers may spend the night in Phila.
deIphia and proceed to the shore by
regular trains from Market Street
Wharf the following day.
Tickets will also be good on regu-
lar trains leaving Pittsburg at 430
and $40 P. NJ, arriving in Philadel-
phia next morning, whence passen-
gers may proceed to the shore on any
regular train from Market Street
Wharf that day.
