FLORENCE FENNEL OR FINOCCHIO. 



Tills is a delicious Italian salad vegetable worthy of 

 much more extensiv^ use in this country. The 

 thickened bases of The leaf-stalks overlap each 

 other so as to form a "head," and this is usually 

 eaten raw like celery or head-lettuce, although it 

 makes a delightfully palatable dish when boiled. 

 The flavor is somewhat like celery but with an 

 aromatic sweetness peculiarly its own. Seed may 

 be sown from early spring until midsummer. Thin 

 out to 5 or 6 inches apart in the row (rows about 

 15 inches apart), and when the "heads" are about 

 hen's egg size draw^ the soil half way up over 

 them. Cutting may begin in about ten days. Pkt. 

 10c; oz. 25c; % lb. 70c.
