50 feet long 
An aromatic plant used ex¬ 
tensively in Europe as a salad 
garnishing and seasoner. Sow in 
rows like parsley, which it some¬ 
what resembles. For a continuous 
crop, sow every two weeks; if one 
has heated frames or a greenhouse 
it can be sown under glass all 
Winter or in hotbeds in February. 
It can be cut 4 to 5 weeks after 
sowing.

CHICORY 
One ounce will sow a row 100 feet 
Witloof or French Endive. The roots are 
easily produced from seed, sown in May or 
June, in rows 12 inches apart; thin out the 
plants to 2 or 3 inches. They are taken up 
after a few hard frosts and cared for the same 
as Turnips or similar crops. Used only as a 
Winter vegetable, the top part only being 
edible. Plant under a bench in the green¬ 
house or a light, dry, warm portion of a cellar 
in a bed of rich garden soil 12 inches deep. 
Place about 6 inches apart each way. The 
top growth remains intact, and may be cut 
any time after 5 inches growth. Roots 
should be set in the soil the same depth as 
they were originally in the garden. A con¬ 
tinuous supply of this delicious Winter vege¬ 
table can be had all Winter. A cold frame 
makes also an ideal place for forcing them 
in the late Winter or early Spring months.
