Mr.. T. Greiner, an experienced gar

Farm and Fires1de, does not take the
same view Of the potato onion, but that
is probably due to the difference in
climate for he says that it is popular
at the south. We had some expert

years ago, and we're very we'll pleased
with it, there will not be any trouble
with it in this climate. Mr.. Greiner
says:

Growing Onions for Bunching.


Why is it that more green onions, for
punching, are not grown in this State ?
Market gardeners, at the north, find
them a very profitable crop. They can
be shipped as easily and as safely as let
tuce, and are much more easily and
cheaply grown. The greatest expense
attending the crop is getting them
ready for market, that is punching
Them Whether they would prove a
satisfactory crop for shipment to north
ern market or not, it is certain that
they would be paying crop for any
one who lives near a city market, like
Jacksonville, Tampa, Pensacola or Pa
latka Prof. w. A. Massey, writing to
the Farmers Home Journal, says:
A correspondent in Virginia wishes
to know what kinds Of sets are best
for planting in the fall to make green
onions for punching in the spring, and
also wishes to know something in re-
gard to the preparation Of the soil and
fertilization
I have tried many different kinds of
onions for this purpose. The earliest
crop | have ever produced in North
Carolina was grown from sets Of the
Queen, a very early white onion Of
small size. A very similar sort can be
purchased on the market under the
name Of Pearl But these must all be
sold early in the season, for they run
rapidly to seed and become worthless.
After trying many kinds I have found
that the most profitable onion to plant
in the fall is the Yellow potato onion
or Multiplier. These increase entirely
by the division Of the bulbs and never
make seed, and the small bulbs can be
pulled off for punching in the spring
and any that are left will mature into
good onions that can later be sold in
dry state, SO that there is no loss in
running to seed.
Onions, especially fall planted onions
need light and we'll drained soil. 1t

uria1 needs Of the onion crop are main

900 lbs. Of acid phosphate, 600 lbs Of

Of nitrate Of soda and 400 lbs Of muriate

from each side, to make a bed or list.
Flatten this somewhat and open a shall

sets. The planting should be done late
in September Or early October, and the
