Field of Early Long Standing Savoy for Seed 



Manns* Early Long Standing Savoy g^;,- 



early as reselected savoy but has the very valuable advantage 

 of standing in perfect condition, without bolting to seed, 10 

 to 14 days longer than other varieties. This feature is worth 

 thoQsands of dollars to spinach growers, for with this variety 

 it is possible to market the crop when it is convenient and 

 advantageous for the grower to do so. Many severe losses 

 have been incurred because cutters were not available, weather 

 conditions unfavorable, or prices were too low, but Early Long 

 Standing will wait for cutters, for weather, and for prices. 



Southland Summer New special strain of Swiss 



Chard more closely resembling 

 real spinach, producing large heavily crumpled leaves of a 

 bright green color. Will eventually replace New Zealand.
