Ronald Jones, long associated with area vegetable production says that the average planting con fists of 13 acres and that a field of 20 lo 30 acres is most efficient for "onion growing. Most'field work is now done by machine rather than by stoop labor. Onions were first commercially produced here 1912. Yellow Danver onions produced In the Lake Labish area are most ly consumed along the Pacific coast. Distribution is hctween Alas ka and Southern California with off-shore shipments lo the Hawai ian Islands. Recently some ship ments were made to Cuba. Los Angeles, however, remains the major market for locally produced onions. LITIGATION HALTS PROJECT M. L.
