DANDELION 
German,—Lowenzahn French,—Pissenlit 
Spanish,—Amargon 
One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill 
The Dandelion resembles endive, and affords one ot 
the earliest as well as one of the most healthful spring 
greens. Sow as early as the weather will permit, in 
good, well-enriched soil, in rows 12 inches apart, cov¬ 
ering seed 34 of an inch deep, and firming the soil 
well over them. Thin to two or three inches apart in 
the rows; by so doing the roots will be larger and a 
great amount of time will be saved the next spring in 
trimming or gathering the crop. One pound per acre is 
sufficient. 
Improved Thick-Leaved. Cultivate for spring greens; 
an immense improvement on the common dandelion, 
both in size and thickness of its leaves and fine flavor, 
being far less bitter. Pkt., .10; oz., .75; 34 lb., $2.50
