Field of Early Long Standing Savoy for Seed 



Manns' Early Long Standing Savoy J^y^^s 



early as Reselected Savoy but has the very valuable advantage 

 of standing in perfect condition, virithout bolting to seed, 10 

 to 14 days longer. This feature is worth thousands 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 un- 

 favorable, 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. 



Manns' Special Summer Savoy w^J'tlTJ 



without bolting to seed better than any other Savoy leaved 

 type. A great improvement even on Bloomsdale Long 

 Standing. Very dark green and heavily crumpled leaves. 

 Very slow grower and should be sown so as to mature 

 during warm weather.
