covered that by planting onions

Some of the finest onions that
bave come under our observation
this season have been on sale at
the Lynch drug store, and were
grown by Mr.. P. F. Salter Of
Trenton. They were the White
Pearl variety. If you want mild
onions that are early and that
grow very large, always plant this
variety.
If you want the finest Felt Mats
