FORREST’S HONEST SHEDS.

SWISS CHARD, 
Or, SILVER BEET. 
This differs from the beet, in that it is 
grown expressly for its leaves, and never 
makes bottom like beets, but furnishes fine 
greens, and the middle, or the rib of the 
leaf can be used like asparagus. As fast as 
the leaves are broken off new ones appear, 
so that it gives a plentiful supply of fine 
greens, from spring until fall. If any of 
our friends are fond of greens, they should 
not forget to include a package in their or¬ 
der. Large honest package 5c, oz. 8c, X 
lb. 12c, 1 lb. 40c.
