TRANSMITTING METHOD OF
GROWING ONIONS.
(By w. II. BEATTIE.l

The transplantins process of,ea
spoken of as the new onion culture"
is merely a modification OF the rcsu-
lar seeding method. The objects
gained by transplanting are an earlier
crop. A uniform stand. and bulbs OF
more regular size. Practically the en-
tire Bermuda crop OF the Southern
States is handled in this manner.
Where a small area is 10 be grown. the
transplanting process IS the ideal
method. but for large area and where
labor is difficult 10 obtain. this would
not be practical. Often transplapting.
the seedlings require rain or watering
IN order that they may start, and for
this reason the transplanting process
IS practically limited TO areas where
some form of irrigation Is available.

hot beds or cold frames at the rate Of
5 1-2 or 4 pounds for each acre to be
planted. When the seedlings are
grown under cover, they are given the
necessary attention regarding water
ing and ventilation and kept growing
rapidly until the time to set them in
the open ground. The seedlings are
"hardened' by increased ventilation
and Exposure and 10y withholding
water. When ready to transplant they
should be about the size of a lead pen
Gil and rather stocky. The plants are
lifted from the Seedbed and the roots
and tops are both trimmed some

Various methods are employed for
handling the plants in setting. but one
thing is necessary and that is straight
lrOWS-fOr ease in cultivation. The
transplanting process consists mainly
in pushing the root end of the seed

TRIES TO REDEEM
ANOTHER FALLENONE
Capt. Margaret Duffy Takes In
corrigible Woman To Saliva
ton Army Home

STAR Captain Margaret Duffy. In
charge Of the salvation Army's Home
for Women. with the assistance Of
Miss Clara Dyar. OF Crosse Pointe
Farms. Mrs. Robert Y. Ogg, wife of
the state senator, and other prominent
women OF Detroit, has undertaken to
redeem to society another woman CIV
en- up az hopeless.
Miss Duffy achieved considerable
and no small amount Of
praise. recently. when she took under
her care Bessie, Ashton. known as one
OF the city's most hopeless victims Of
drink. After one month with Miss
Duffy, the Ashton woman reported to
police court. clear-eyed and healthy.
and said she had learned her responsi-
bility to God. and no longer had a
desire to drink.
The second woman OF this type to
be placed In charge of Miss Duffy Is
Birdie Brown-that. at least, Is the
name she gave the police. Judge
Phelan sentenced her, last week. to
serve six months In the House. Of Cor.
rection. for stealing SITS from man
The Judge told her, when he sentenced
her, that he believed there was little
hope for her, ~ she had shown that
she chose to frequent cafes, take mon.
ey from men. and give II to another
man. with whom she was living. The
man who shared her loot is q bar.
tender.
Because they believed that the BAr-
tender and others who had preyed
upon Birdie Brown" were in q meas
ure responsible. social workers, en-
with the success they have
made with Bessie Ashton, determined
to make another experiment.
Tuesday morning. they persuaded
Judge Phelan to suspend sentence on
the woman. Birdie Brown was taken
to the Salvation Army home, after
Judge Phelan that she
would live In the future as q woman
should.
