HIGH QUALITY SEEDS 
Spinach 
(Spinace, Espinaca, Spinat) 
CULTURE_One ounce of seed will plant 100 feet of drill; 10 pounds an acre. Spinach is an important crop of easy cul¬ 
ture for the market gardener. For spring and early summer use, sow in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep, as early as the 
ground can be worked, and every two weeks thereafter for a succession crop. For winter and early spring use, sow in 
September in well-manured ground. Cover with straw on the approach of cold weather. 
GIANT GAUDRY (Longstanding:) —A rapid growing 
variety producing early in the season a mass of 
rather smooth, thick, rounded leaves of very large 
size. It stands well without bolting, yields a great¬ 
er bulk than other varieties, and is highly recom¬ 
mended for both the home and market garden; fine 
for canning.

NORTHLAND (Dark Green Nobel—Longstanding)— 
Northland is a dark green selection out of Nobel 
Spinach and has all the good characteristics of that 
variety and in addition a darker color. It is just 
as large leaved, as good yielding as Nobel and 
equally long standing. An outstanding sort for 
home and commercial gardens.

GIANT NOBEL (Longstanding) —Very valuable for 
market gardens and canning. Plants large, vigor¬ 
ous and spreading. It is slow to form seed stalks, 
and an extremely heavy yielder. Leaves huge, 
thick, smooth, pointed, with rounded tip; deep 
green, tender. The best of the Giant Thick Leaved 
sorts.

BLOOMSDALE SAVOY (Longstanding) —Only a few 
days later than the regular Bloomsdale Savoy, it 
holds 12 to 14 days longer before throwing seed 
stalks. Plants are very uniform and sturdy, with 
very attractive, highly crumpled and blistered 
dark green leaves. Exceptionally valuable for 
home and market gardens, and for shipping from 
the extreme South.

KING OP DENMARK (Longstanding)—An excep¬ 
tionally longstanding sort, highly desirable for 
canning and for market gardens. The large, spread¬ 
ing plants carry broad, rounded, very dark green 
leaves, which are somewhat crumpled. Excellent 
for spring planting, as seed stalks are slow in 
forming.

ly, longstanding sort, for home gardens and for 
shipping. Plants compact and dense, growing 
close to the ground. Leaves rounded, with short 
stems; thick, crumpled, very dark green; slow in 
producing seed stalks.

OLD DOMINION (Blight Resistant) —This new spin¬ 
ach is a cross between Blight Resistant Savoy and 
King of Denmark. It has the large dark green 
crumpled leaf of the Savoy and stands up longer 
than other Blight Resistant kinds. This variety 
yields large crops and holds up well when cut. 
It is a very valuable kind for spring sowing in 
places where spinach blights.

ing sort for market gardeners.

CULTURE —A desirable 
winter vegetable. The roots, 
when cooked, are palatable 
and nutritious. Flavor is 
similar to oysters. A light, 
rich soil is most suitable, 
and it should be worked to 
a good depth. Seed is sown 
in spring in rows 12 to 15 
inches apart and thinned to 
4 inches apart in the row.
