SWISS CHARD 
Only the tops of 
this beet are used, 
like spinach, and the 
succulent stalks and 
midribs may be pre¬ 
pared in the same 
way as asparagus. 
The plants are culti¬ 
vated like beets ex¬ 
cept that they should 
be thinned to 8 or 10 
inches apart. If 
only the outer leaves 
are gathered, the inner leaves will con¬ 
tinue to grow, and repeated pickings can 
be made. 
Large Ribbed White (Silver Leaf) 
The leaves are broad, somewhat waved 
but smooth, and of a medium light yel¬ 
lowish-green. The stalks are broad and 
flattened, but tender and succulent.
