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 Au:?ust, and protect the plants through the winter by a 

 thicl^ covering of clean straw or some other similar light 

 covi ring. 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 Kast 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., 5c.; ^4 Iih., 15c.; Lb., 40c.
