type that grows rather close to the ground, very 
curly or crimped, and is one of the longest stand¬

longer than Long-standing Bloomsdale. Oz.

I harvested 2 acres of this 4-acre field before the market 
broke and sold 2,000 bushel baskets of Spinach from the 2 
acres harvested We started cutting when the Spinach was 
rather small and at the time we stopped cutting it 
would cut from 1,200 to 1,300 bushels per acre. The 
type of Spinach was extra good and no other 
strain mixed. It was the best Bloomsdale 
Long-Standing that I have seen. 
100 lbs. $20.
