 to protect it from severe frost.

 any other variety and slow to run to seed. With this new sort, Spinach 

 may be grown continuously throughout the entire season. It is not 

 only hardier and more lasting than any of the large leaved sorts, but it 

 possesses the further merit of being a profuse yielder. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c; 

 14 lb. 20c; 1 lb $0.65
