HARVESTING THE ONION

How shall 1 store my onions so that they will keep during the remain. der of the summer and during win. ter?"
 The above question is one that Is frequently asked by the farmers of the state The following suggestions. If carried out, will greatly help in solving the problem:
 Do not allow the onions to remain in the ground after they are mature, but dig them when from so to 90 peY. cent Of the tops die and fall over. Three or four rows may be piled to- gether in windrow as they are dug and allowed to remain in this way un, til the tops are dry. which will re- quire several days owing to the de. gree of sunshine. It may be neces. sary to turn the onions over at inter. vals of two days until they are thor oughly dry. Do not allow white onions to remain in the sun until they turn green.
 Place in Bags.
 AS soon as properly cured in tbe held. place the onions in bags and car. ry to the storage house. The stoy- age house should be well ventilated especially until the bulbs are thor. oughly dry. If only a few bushels arc to be stored, it is good idea to spread them out on the fcor of a building, piling them not more than six inches deep on the floor. When placed in this way there is little dan. ger of the bulbs heating or sproutirq from moisture. Some of the regular onion storage houses have a series of shelves. one above the other in which the bulbs are spread out to dry. If you have to store them in bags leave plenty of air space between the diff ferent bags and be sure the bulbs arc all cured before placing them in the bags.
