The seed is sown thickly in rows
about a foot apart. After the plants
become established, they are thinned
to about two or three inches apart.
The maturity of the bulbs may be
hastened by preventing the continued
growth OF the tops. This is sometimes
accomplished by rolling an empty bar
rel over the rows and breaking down
the tops
Wait until the tops are fairly well
along. After these turned over tops
are practically dead. the onion bulbs
may be pulled out by hand and spread
in dry, well-ventilated place to cure.
Several kinds of onions may remain
/ in the soil over winter The multi.
( plier, or potato onion. for example,
can be planted from sets in the au-
tumn and will produce excellent green
onions early in the spring. Remember
this next fall. Cover the bed with
leaves or straw.

planted will produce small onions. On
the other hand a small onion contains

RY A GARDENER

The onion viii thrive under a wide
range of climatic and soil conditions.
but a rich sandy loan containing plen-
ty of humus is best suited for it. As
the crop requires shallow cultivation
and it may be necessary to resort to
hand work to keep it free from weeds.
the land should be in condition to be
easily worked.
In the north, seed is sown as early
in the spring as the soil can be
brought to the proper condition. In
the south. onion sets are frequently
put out in the autumn and carried
through the winter with the protection
of little hay or straw.
There are three ways of growing
onions: First by sowing the seeds in
rows where the crop is to grow: sec.
Ond by sowing the seed in prepared
beds and transplanting the seedlings
to the open ground; and third, by
planting sets which have been kept
through the winter.
The first method is used by large
commercial growers on account of the
labor involved in the others. On small
areas it may be preferable to plant
sets. Onions planted from sets will
ripen earlier than those from seed
sown in the garden.
The seedlings are transplanteC

MAKING IT PLAIN

mis-statements on the labels of prepa-

accept "extracts" of cod hveys think
ing they will get the benefits of an
emulsion of cod liver oil.
The difference is very great. An
"emulsion" contains real cod hve1 oil,
which has had the hearty endorse

NEED TO
PROTECT
WHARVES

Tacoma's waterfront is in just
as grave danger of fire or dyna-
mite disaster as Baltimore, where
an incendiary blaze Wednesday de-
stroyed $5,000,000 worth of food
stuffs destined for the American
army in France.
This report was made to Mayor
Fawcett Thursday by Harbormas-
ter w. G. Rowland, who declared
that the city should either furnish
special protection for warehouses,
or ask the state or private indus
tries to do 1t.
There are millions of dollars
worth of foodstuffs in our ware
houses" Rowland reported to the
mayor.
1.-THE great grain docks are
piled to the roof with wheat and
oats. In some of the warehouses
the wheat Is piled A sacks high.
The Tacoma waterfront Is very
poorly protected, and there is
great danger of a similar disaster
here to the one which occurred in
Baltimore"
Millions of dollars worth Of
war munitions and foodstuffs
come thru Tacoma each month,
Rowland declared. The ware
houses have their own system of
private watchmen, but in most
cases they are entirely inadequate
to thoroly patrol the interior and
exterior of the long buildings
which line the harbor for miles.
Mayor Fawcett advised Row.
land that the city police were un-
able to add further protection to
the waterfront, and suggested that
the owners of big docks be warn
ed of the danger and asked to add
more fire protection to their dock
property.
The state will be asked for
troop protection on the docks un-
less the danger becomes more
acute, Fawcett said.

been an increasing number of Of

port that at the present rate, all

Nov. 1, the date when fOodstuffs
in the hands of wholesale dealers
go under federal control, arrived
in Tacoma without creating any
disturbance in wholesale grocery
circles.
Local dealers have received
blanks on which to make appl!ca-
tion for licenses, and have made
them. That is about all there is
to it, so far, they say. Rules and
regulations for selling will be re-
leased to the grocers only when
the licenses are issued, according
to the blanks sent them by the
government. No hint of price
fixing has yet been received.
A by-product Of the situation,
however, is causing them some
worry. Tacoma housewives are
trying to buy all their sugar and
hide 1t away for future reference.
Sugar Not Scarce.
Under the new law, wholesalers
will only be allowed to buy 60
days in advance of their needs.
Consequently the sugar rush may
result in unfairness to some con-
sumers unless the tendency of 9th
ers to try to hoard is checked, the
grocers say.
people should understand,
said C. H. Plass, of the Tacoma
Grocery Co., that there is no
scarcity of sugar. The main diff
ficulty is that beet sugar and cane
sugar, which used to be 20 cents
apart in price. are now equal, and
consumers ali prefer cane sugar.
Beet sugar contains the same per
cent of saccharine, and at the pres
ent time they should be willing to
use 1t. II they will use beet
sugar and buy just what they need
as they have always done, there
will be plenty for everybody"
Lindberg's idea.
II would not be surprised" said
Gustaf Lindberg of the Lindberg
Grocery Co., "if the reports which
the government is asking for
would be used more to get a line
on what prices should be charged
for next years crops, than to fix
prices on the crops which are now
being sold. We have sent in one
report, and I understand we will
be asked for another about Dec. 1,
which will cover the new crops,
which will be in by that time.
Considering the number Of reports
the department will have to han
die from all over the country,
don't see how they could possibly
hope to fix prices on the crops that
are being sold now"
"The information the govern
ment wants probably will serve
the same purpose for wholesale
