HEALTHFUL SPINACH ™«. 



Green Gold Spinach. 



Spinach is one of the most healthful and at same time one of the most easily grown 

 vegetables and by judicious planning and planting may be had fresh from your own gar- 

 den in all but the Winter months. While true Spinach is primarily a cool weather crop, 

 some varieties have been developed that stand up well in hot weather, and the New Zealand 

 Spinach (Tetragonia expansa) actually grows best in the hot, dry months. 



Make the first sowing as early in the Spring as the ground can be prepared, in shallow 

 drills 15 to 18 inches apart. For Fall use, sow in August and September. Late sowings, 

 protected with straw, will provide Spinach in Winter and earlv Spring. 



One ounce of seed will sow 100 feet of drill.
