SPINACH 



BLOOniSI>AI.E SAVOY SFZITACa 



VZRailTIA BIiIGHT BESISTING — Fine for carrying over 

 winter. 



VICTORIA ZiONG STANDING — Slow to run to seed, dark 

 green in color. Good for spring sowing. 



XiONG SEASONS — Long standing; slow to run to seed; 

 crimped, dark green. For spring sowing. 



TRITTMFH — Long standing; slow seeder, crimped dark 

 green. Good for spring sowing. 



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, cover- 

 ing 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 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 principal- 

 ly as greens for boiling, and is very highly esteemed for 

 this purpose. 



DARK GREEN BI.OOMSDAZ.E SAVOY SPINACH.— As 



its name implies, it has all the merits of the Reselected 

 Bloomsdale Savoy plants. Very much crumpled, stand.s 

 long before going to seed and only two days later than 

 the Savoy Spinach. 



RESEI.BCTED BI.OOniSDAX.E SAVOY SPINACH— 



Grown from pedigree stock, carefully rogued each year 

 for the true Bloomsdale Savoy Spinach plants. 



IMPROVED IiONG STANDING BI.OOMSDAZ.E SAVOY 



SPINACH. — A most desirable sort, very curly and dark 



= green. Stands ten days longer, or more, than the other 

 -~ savoy types before going to seed. While it is a slow 

 seeder, it requires a longer time before it is fit to cut, 

 because it is a slower grower than the other Bloomsdale 

 varieties. 



JVIiIANA — Long standing. The finest crinkled sort of the 

 flat types. Lots of foliage and very shy seeder. Dark green 

 foliage and fine for summer sowing. 



NEW ZEAIiAND SPINACH — The hot weather spinach will 

 resist heat and make a strong growth during the summer. 

 The plants will continue to grow until late fall, supplying 

 all during summer and fall an abundance of rich green leaves. 

 It cannot stand frost like other spinach; for family gardens 

 only. 



SQUASH 



Barly White Bush Scallop 



The squashes are 

 all quite tender, 

 and therefore no 

 progress can be 

 made in starting 

 them until the 

 weather becomes 

 somewhat warm 

 and settled. Plant 

 in hills five feet 

 apart each way 

 for the bush va- 

 rieties and eight 

 feet for the run- 

 ning varieties; put 

 eight seeds to the 

 hill, but don't 

 allow over three 

 to stand.

 marketable sort.

 most productive of

 beautiful rich green-tinted color. 



SUMMER CROOK NECK (Early) — Fine flavor; a desirable 

 table sort.

 grown for winter use.
