Onion Seedlings

Onion seedlings resulting from an August sowing in the open should be transferred to their growing patch without further delay.

The grafting of old fruit trees may be done now. Make a two inch slit in the old bark to receive the young scions, which should be from twelve to fifteen inches in length. A the base of each scion make a sloping cut, and place this against the old wood. Tie the scions firmly in, and exclude air by using a mixture of clay and cow manure.

Tidy up the beds and hoe where you can.
