For this assistance the grower gives the operator the refusal of the sale of the onions, and a selling commission of 12 per cent should the operator undertake the business. The majority of the growers ob tain their seed from the Canary Is lands; large quantities of eed are also obtained from California. The seed are planted by drill between August 15 and September 20, and the plant remain in the seed bed f0 to 70 days before transplanting to the field. Great care is exercised in transplanting. The ground is plowed, thoroughly disked and har rowed, the roots and top of the plants are carefully trimmed, and only well-rooted plants are select ed.
