both Spring and Fall. 
Culture. One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill; 10 to 
12 pounds per acre. Seed should be sown very early 
in the Spring and every two weeks until June. A fine

15th. New Zealand Spinach can be used in the Sum¬ 
mer and Fall months. For early Spring use sow the 
regular varieties in the Fall, and where the Winters 
are severe protect the plants with leaves or straw.
