LEEK. 



German, Lauch. 



French, Poireau. 



In our opinion, the 

 Leek does not receive 

 the attention it de- 

 serves. It is easily 

 cultivated, and is a 

 valuable addition to the 

 vegetables generally 

 used in soups, etc. 

 Sow early in spring, 

 and when about six 

 inches high transplant 

 into rows about ten 

 inches apart each way, 

 and as deep as possible, 

 to perfect the blanch- 

 ing process. The richer 

 the soil, the finer the 

 Leeks will grow. 



If by mail in 

 quantities of '% lb.
