WITLOOF CHICORY. Called also "French Endive," "Brussels Chic- 

 ory" and "Christmas Salad." Seed sown in spring produces long thick 

 roots, which after lifting, and "resting" a few days are re-planted to 

 start new growth, when they form the blanched crowns as illustrated. 

 The work required is simple and easy, and the crop will amply repay 

 the work put upon it, for it is at once the tenderest and most delicately 

 flavored of salads, and one of the few that can be grown during winter. 

 Complete cultural directions are given in our pamphlet "Salads — Grow- 

 ing and Blanching," sent free on request. (See engraving.)
