 Culture — The Extra Early varieties are very hardy, and will endure a great 

 amount of cold: should be planted as soon as the ground can be got ready. 

 The larger wrinkled varieties are not nearly as hardy, and the seed is apt to 

 rot instead of germinating if planted before the soil becomes slightly warmer 

 on the advance of spring. 



For private use sow in double rows, 18 inches apart and 3 inches apart in the 

 rows. For market, in single rows 1 inch apart and 3 inches deep, and the rows 

 from 2 to 3 feet apart.
