DUST PROOF

iliar with the ash pan method and have. no doubt
gone through the process many times of spreading
a newsp- per or cloth under your stove every time
the over-flled pan is removed.
The ash pan is not only dirty. but Is great evil
in stove construction. 1t adds door and joints
which can be made only temporarily alright by
the use of stove putty. These joints open after a
few weeks use rendering ash pan stoves worthless
as FIRE keepers. and makes them fuel-eaters rather
than fuel-sarers. The ash pan and the shield for
guiding ashes into the pan also prevent base heat.
Our method Is the only clean way. The
whisk broom, turkey wing and dust cloth
are dispensed with. There are no joints to
leak air. base heat is not retarded and Coles Hot
Blast il the cleanest stove, the best floor heater
and the only stove in the world which can be
guaranteed to remain always air-tight.

HOW TO GROW ONIONS
Continued from Page Two)

are dead they should be carefully talk en to convenient shade, barn or un- der trees and all the tops removed. It may require week or two for the tops to become sufficiently dry for removal. They should not be exposed to a hot sun foo long nor should they be neg lected and left in the ground too long; If 1t should rain on them after matur- Ing 1t will cause them to start new growth and ruin the crop for marketing. If they are to be kept any length of time they should be spread out six or eight inches deep on shelves made of lx4 inch on edge and have plenty of air. Handle them as though they were ripe peaches and you will receive your reward on sales day.
 MARKETING
 You may have had perfect success from start to finish and yet fail in cash ing them, and all has failed might give the addresses of a few commits sion men with whom have dealt with satisfaction, but I do not know what time they will quit that business, but when that time arrives they generally forget to whom to make returns and so pocket receipts. have sent five bar rels of as fine Bermuda onions as was ever shipped to firm in Dallas and never received a nickel for them. He gave good reference; all spoke we'll of him, but on following it up found that my shipment was near the time he was going to retire and he did not care for his reputation. presume he went into the banking business. l did make good cash sales by handing out sam ples to local dealers and private fami lies. No doubt there are commission men in the cities of the north who are not yet ready to retire, but don't know. For shipments by rail Bermuda onions should be carefully packed in barrels well coopered and well ventilated by boring or cutting holes in the bottom and sides, then securely covered with gunny sacks. any old thing on top of onions to protect from bruising will do. They may thus be safely shipped by freight. Creole onions can be safely shipped in sacks. The question ot marketing is a great question, but get the cash on track if you can. The present outlook is fair for your people to ship by car lots which will give them a much larger net profit. The acreage which they propose to plant should at least be doubled. It will give much larger returns.
 STRUGGLING NOTES
 While it seems to the inexperienced a big job to drop and place the young onions it may be done very rapidly. It requires quick motion and nimble fin gers. Take as many onions as con- venient to carry, keep them wet in about a half inch of water, now take a small hand full in the left hand. finger ing them out one at time, placing it in a position with the right hand. An active brain and experience will do more for the beginner than five pages of directions.
 It requires about two or two and a half pounds of good seed per acre for raising the young plants and about four or five when sown in the field.
 fertilize with wood ashes, cotton seed meal or commercial fertilizer Make a light furrow with an eight inch

planting the onions.
 Onions need to be kept clean of weeds and grass and therefore need a good deal of cultivation. as the ground should never be allowed to bake in the least and you must keep ahead of crab grass or you are its slave
 One of the largest and most success full onion growers in Texas is T. C.. Nye, who operates below Laredo in the Rio Grande Valley. Some of his experience is given in the following letters published some time ago in the literature of onion growing:
 "Gentlemen-Replying to your in- quiry as to publishing what write you in regard to my onion crops would say that most certainly l have no ob- jection to your making use of anything that may have said about onions, for 1 believe in them. This crop has walked me up and confirmed my belief, gathered from small patch that grew four years ago that it was possible to take $500 from an acre. provided that prices and conditions that prevailed then should ever come around again. This has happened this past season and greater crops even than this one can be grown. Some capital and in- telligence is required and If one makes any mistakes this year he should re- member them and take good care against their occurring again. (This last Is good advice in other lines beside growing onions.) My crop this year has banned out between l3O.OOO and l4O,O0O pounds from seven acres and brought me in two and a fourth cents a pound, It cannot be expected that such yield or such a price can al- ways be realized, but the crop has al- ways brought one and half cents all around. and even at that price it is a good crop. In transplanting selected all good, strong plants and consequent ly the product was very uniform in size. l would make point of this and insist that it be done. The weak plants planted in rows thickly make good sets and help considerably in paying for the seed. From sets grown in this way got 25,O0O pounds of onions during 1899 and 1900. Creoles grown in this section are not In with the Ber- muda. My Bermudas were nearly all gone before the Creoles began to move which is strong point in favor of the Bermudas.
 Under date of December Eth he writes; "I am hard at work this week transplanting my onion crop. We are planting in beds twelve feet wide from center of one border to center of next border, which allows room for eight rows In each bed, taking 27O plants to each row from five to six inches apart. We have to make these beds or ridges in order to confine the water so as to flood the area between the borders. We set between 10000 and 25,OOO plants per day. Greiner. in his book on onion culture, tells about having hands that set 5000 plants per day. l have had nine men; one drives an Ac- me harrow, to level the middles be- tween borders; one digs out plants; one sorts them; one trims roots and tops; two stretch lines and punch holes and the balance set the plants. have seen men run the drill and mark the rows and the hands punch the holes
