leaves are boiled the 
same as spinach. It is 
the hardiest of all Win¬

in almost any soil. Sow 
April to June, Yl in. deep in rows 24 ins. apart and 
for large plants thin to 18 ins. apart in the row. For 
Spring use, sow in August or September, as it will 
winter over if protected by a light covering of hay.
