ENDIVE 
Chicoree ©nbittien Indivia

BROAD-LEAVED BATAVIAN (Escarolle). The leaves are 
broad and thick, more or less twisted and waved, with round 
ends and are of a bright deep green with a nearly white midrib. 
The inner leaves form a fair head which blanches a creamy 
white. In its natural state Escarolle forms an excellent salad 
with an appetizing piquancy. It may be gathered fresh from 
the ground well into winter, thus furnishing salad at a season 
when it is most welcome. Frequently served as spinach, 
when its flavor and health-giving properties render it of high 
value. Oz. 20 cts., V^b. 45 cts., lb. $1.25, 10 lbs. $11.50.
