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 August, and 

 protect the plants through the winter by a thick covering 

 of clean straw or some similar light covering. Spinach is 

 used principally as greens for boiling, and is very highly 

 esteemed for this purpose.

 is grown specially for us. and is without exception the best type of Savoy Spin- 

 ach in existence. It is beautifully curled and wrinkled, the leaves large, thick 

 and heavy, produced in great numbers, and stands handling and transportation 

 better than any other sort; in fact, we hardly think we could say too much 

 about this valuable acquisition to the spinach family. Sold only in sealed bags.

FICTORIA SPINACH. — This new spinach comes to us with the highest recom- 

 mendations from the growers. The foliage is heavy, the broad, dark green 

 leaves being of the true Savoy appearance, and of the finest quality, but the 

 most remarkable feature that will make it of special value, both for market 

 and family gardens, is the fact that it is in prime condition from two weeks to 

 three weeks after all other varieties of spinach have run to seed.
