Long Standing Bloomsdale Spinach 
Long Standing Bloomsdale^ 
Long Standing Bloomsdale has been developed along new 
and scientific lines of breeding. This strain of Blooms¬ 
dale is one of the outstanding varieties for crinkly leaf 
and long standing qualities and the market gardener’s 
favorite. This Spinach has been carefully bred to elimi¬ 
nate the plants which shoot to seed quickly; will hold 
its marketable form for 10 days after reaching maturity. 
Leaves very crumpled. 
Round Thick Leaf 
A popular variety for spring and fall planting. Plants 
have large, long leaves, spreading out on the ground. 
Ends of leaves are pointed rather than round. 
SPINACH 
CULTURE. Sow just as soon as the ground will per¬ 
mit working in spring. Sow in rows 12 inches apart 
and one inch deep. If given some protection over win¬ 
ter, Spinach may be soiwn in the fall for spring use. 
Spinach being of a leafy growth only, should be kept 
growing fast in order to be tender and palatable. The 
soil should be well fertilized with a complete fertilizer. 
After the Spinach is up it should receive a side-dressing 
of Nitrate of Soda and Sulphate of Ammonia about once 
a week until fit for market. 
Bloomsdale or Savoy Leaved★ 
This is the quickest and earliest growing Spinach. The 
leaves are narrow, pointed and crinkled and very hardy. 
Long Standings 
The leaves are smooth and very dark green. Grows 
quickly and remains tender a long time. One of the 
best for the Market and Home Garden. 
King of Denmark^ 
One of the earliest of the Spinach varieties; noted for 
its ability to withstand very hot weather. Produces 
longer than most any other. 
New Zealand 
Entirely different from the true Spinach in type in that 
it thrives during hot weather in any soil. The tender 
shoots are of good quality and may be cut throughout 
the summer. Plant in rows about three feet apart and 
do not allow to become crowded. 
Princess Julianav^ 
Of delicious flavor and quality. Leaves are large, crum¬ 
pled and a rich dark green. Remains in good condition 
a long time before going to seed. One of the outstanding 
market varieties. 
Victoria^ 
A great favorite with the market gardener on account of 
slowness in shooting to seed. Grows low and compact. 
Leaves are shiny dark green and heavily crumpled. Suit¬ 
able for spring and fall seeding.

HERBS 
Most of the varieties of Herbs thrive best on sandy

grown on soil that is rather poor. In all cases the soil 
should be carefully prepared and well cultivated as the 
young plants are for the most part delicate and easily 
choked out by weeds. 
Sow as early as the ground can be made ready, tak¬ 
ing pains that the soil is fine and pressed firmly over 
the seed.
