SWISS CHARD 



Only the tops of this beet are used, like spinach, and the 

 succulent stalks and midribs may be prepared in the same way 

 as asparagus. The plants are cultivated like beets except that 

 they should be thinned to 8 or 10 inches apart. If onlj' the outer 

 leaves are gathered, the inner leaves will continue to grow, and 

 repeated pickings can be made.

 broad, somewhat waved but smooth, and of a medium 

 light yeUo wish-green. The stalks are broad and flat- 

 tened, but tender and succulent.

 best results is a rich, friable sand or 

 clay loam. Cultivation is the same as 

 for Mangel Wurzel. 



KLEIN WANZLEBEN The most 

 desirable beet for sugar manu- 

 facture ; valuable for stockf eeding.
