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 profitably raised
than onions. To the majority of farm
ers this viii seem like an untenable
proposition. for 1t 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
DDS are employed. by means Of which
the greatest share OF the labor is elm
mated, the net profit becomes great
and this. too. from comparatively
small patch of land.
There are three conspicuous factors
which determine the profit in raising
crop, says the Wisconsin Agricultur-
alist: 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.
therefore, the labor involved to be con-
sidered
As the area Of land required for on
ions Is small. the labor expended in
blowing and dragging is not great. nor
in preparing the crop for market Is
there nearly so large an amount OF
work necessary as in preparing such a
crop as sugar beets. The principal la

III the little tree be headed high. four
or five feet, the growth of the branches
will tend outward in a horizontal d.
rection- This will be aggravated
when the tree comes into bearing. so
that the horse will pass under with

proper distribution OF the branches
and to have the largest possible bear
ing surface with all the spaces be-

size to suit the needs of the tree.
There is, we believe. no other form
of tree more easily kept within man

The subsequent pruning OF such
trees after the second year will con-
sist in shortening each years growth
from one-third TO one-half and cutting
out so that the branches shall not be

The first thing the primer must do
is 10 examine the leader. Perhaps
there will be six or more main branch
es. Perhaps two OF these are twice as
thick as the others. They arc defect

branches. The side branches OF these
leaders must be severely thinned The
/ leader itself must be cut back severely.
Heroic pruning must be done and tho

the remaining branches shall get their
share of the plant food. The air and
sunshine must be let in.
Ordinary pruning may De done at
any time when the tree is dormant.
The best time is from February till
April. But summer pruning for fruit
has special season. Il must be done
before the tree is dormant or has
completed its growth. and yet not so
early in the summer that there will
be new shoots About the first of
August we find is the right time. This
pruning consists simply I'm removing

BY this operation young fruit trees
may be made TO bear two or three

early. and that the buds next TO the
