GARDEN SEEDS^ 



Green Curled Endive.

 to 6 inches apart. When nearly full grown tie the outer leaves together 

 to blanch, 



1 oz. to 300 feet of drill. 



GREEN CURLED ENDIVE 



The "ChicorSe F'risfie'' of the French. 



An excellent 5?alad plant, available long after the season for Lettuce, 

 and more easily grown. The flavor is pleasantly bitter, stimulating and 

 zest-giving. Is used also boiled as greens. 



Green Curled is the best for general use, and is easily blanched by 

 covering the full-grown plants with boards or pieces of slate. After 

 severe frost the plants may be removed and planted closely in a cellar 

 for winter use. The seed should be sown in rows about 2 feet apart and 

 V2 inch deep in the drill. When sufficiently grown, thin the plants out to 

 8 inches apart and cultivate thoroughly while growing. A very early 

 crop may be grown by starting the seed in hotbed, greenhouse, or window 

 box. Good results come from early spring sowing, and even better, when 

 treated as a fall crop. Successional sowings during July give a continu- 

 ous supply after cool weather, and with a slight covering the plants may 

 be kept in good condition well into November. Pkt., 10c; ox., 15c; % lb.,

Kohl-Rabi 



Sow the seed early in spring and trans- 

 plant first of June in rows 18 inches apart and 

 6 Inches apart in the rows. 1 oz, to 3,000 

 plants. 



The seed may be sown in the open ground 

 In drills and the plants thinned out to 6 

 inches apart. One ounce of seed will sow 

 300 feet of driU. 



Kohl-rabi Is especially adapted to the back 

 yard garden. It resembles a turnip in flavor, 

 and is prepared for the table in the same way, 

 but it does not grow underground, forming a 

 bulb instead, a few Inches above the roots, 

 from which numerous leaf stalks shoot out. 

 when kohl-rabi is about the size of a baseball, 

 it is ready to be cut for the table. If allowed 

 to grow much larger it gets tough and woody. 

 Kohl-rabi will grow in almost any soil, and 

 is ready for use in a few weeks from the time 

 the seed is sown. Moreover, a succession can 

 be obtained all summer by sowing seeds at 

 intervals of two weeks, and the crop can be 

 stored in sand in the cellar for winter.
