THIS Is quite an important crop with market gardeners, 

 and one easily managed. 

 For summer use, sow e.qrly in spring, in drills 

 eight inclies to one foot apart, covering tlie seed one inch 

 deep. Select I'icli soil and manure liberally. A succession 

 may be obtained by sowing at intervals of two weeks 

 through the season. For very early spring use sow in 

 August, and protect the plants througli the winter by a 

 thick covering of clean straw or some similar light cover- 

 ing. Spinach is used principally as greens for boiling, and 

 is very highly esteemed for this purpose.

O. ft T. CCS EZTBA CXTBLED AMEBICAJST OBOWN SAVOY SPINACH.— This 

 is grown especially for us, and is without exception the best type of bavoy 

 Spinach in existence. It is beautifully curled and wrinkled, the leaves large, 

 thick and heavy, produced in great numbers, and stands liandling and trans- 

 portation better than any other sort; in fact, we liardly think we could say too 

 much about this valuable acquisition to the spinach family. Sold only in 

 sealed bags. Pkt., 5c ^ lb., 15c Lb., 30c. 



VZCTOBZA SPZHACK. — This new spinach comes to us with the highest recom- 

 mendations from the growers. The foliage is heavy, the broad, dark green 

 leaves being of the true Savoy appearance and of the finest quality; but the 

 most remarkable feature that will make it of special value, both for market 

 and family gardens, is tlie fact that it is in prime condition from two weeks 

 to three weeks after all other varieties of spinach have run to seed.
