 considerably. Pick out the strongest and best. In fall or spring fol- 

 lowing, transplant to the permanent bed, 4 feet apart each way, in deep, 

 warm and very rich soil. The more manure the better stalks. For

SPINACH 



Bloomsdale — Savoy Spinach. 



This is quite an important crop with market gardeners, 

 and one easily managed. For summer use, sow early in 

 spring, in drills eight inches to one foot apart, covering the 

 seed one inch deep. Select rich 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 through the winter by a 

 thick covering of clean straw or some other similar light 

 covering. Spinach is used principally as greens for boiling, 

 and is very highly esteemed for this purpose. 



BLOOMSDALE SAVOY— The variety most generally used 

 in the East and especially throughout the South for ship- 

 ping. Leaves large, round and thick, very much savoyed 

 and rich deep green. One of the earliest varieties. Seed 

 round. Pkt., Sc.; V4 ^h., 30c.; Lb., $1.00. 



G. & T. CO.'S EXTRA CURLED AMERICAN-6BOW1T 

 BLOOMSDALE SAVOY SPINACH — This is grown especially 

 for us. and is without exception the best type of Savoy 

 Spinach in existence. It is beautifully curled and wrinkled, 

 the leaves large, thick and heavy, produced in great num- 

 bers, and stands handling and transportation better than 

 any other sort; in fact, we hardly think we could say too 

 much about this valuable acquisition to the spinach family. 

 Sold only in sealed bags. Pkt., 5c. % Lb., 30c. Lb., $1,00.
