Whitloof Chicory, or French Endive 



404. Whitloof is used principally as a Winter 

 salad, and it is most delicious served with French 

 dressing and eaten like Cos Lettuce. The seed 

 should be sown in the open ground not later than 

 June, in drills 12 to 18 inches apart, and the seed- 

 lings should be thinned out to stand not closer than 

 three inches. The plants form long, parsnip-shaped 

 roots which are lifted in the Fall, trinmied of leaves 

 and stored in soil in a cool place until wanted for 

 forcing. The roots should be planted upright about 

 1J4 to 2 inches apart in a trench 16 to 18 inches 

 deep. This will bring the neck of the root to within 

 9 inches of the level of the trench, which should be 



filled with Ught soil. If a quicker growth is desired, 

 a mulch of fresh manure about two feet deep may 

 be used. The roots may also be forced in boxes in 

 a warm cellar, in which case they should be set in 

 fine soil two inches apart and with the crowns two 

 inches below the surface. To exclude all light, the 

 box should be covered with another of the same size, 

 and if water is required, it should be sUghtly heated. 

 It requires about one month to force roots. The 

 heads are then cut off with a small portion of the 

 neck of the root attached. Pkts. 5c and 10c. 3^
