GROWING ONIONS.
The Most Profitable Crop Which the
Farmer Can Raise.

For the new settler in Wisconsin.
whose area of cultivated land is small,
no crop can be more profltably raised
than onions. To the majority of farm.
ers this will seem like an untenable
proposition, for it is said by most OF
those to whom this statement is made,
that in raising onions the amount OF
labor involved reduces the net profit.
There is no question that this Is true
when onions are raised by the usual
methods. When, however, new meth
ods are employed, by means Of which
the greatest share of the labor is elm
mated, the net profit becomes great
and this, too, from a comparatively
small patch Of land
There are three conspicuous factors
which determine the profit in raising
a crop, says the Wisconsin Agricultur'
alst: the amount of land required
the amount of labor necessary, and the
price secured Two Of these factors
may be Immediately dropped, for the
area of land required is small and the
price is usually good. There remains
