Do You Grow Swiss Chard? It's Delicious 
Golden Acre Cabbage 
Swiss Chard or Spinach Beet 
Sow 1 ounce of seed to 60 feet of drill 
Culture. Swiss Chard is a Beet grown for 
its leaves. The midribs when boiled make 
delicious “greens,” or the leaves may be 
boiled and served as spinach. Sown in the 
spring, the leaves are soon ready to eat and 
will continue to grow all through the summer 
and fall. If given a little protection it will 
survive the winter and make excellent greens 
early in the spring. 35 days. 
Fordhook Giant. Leaves broad, upright in 
growth, and very dark green, crumpled or 
savoyed, with broad, white midrib. 
Giant Lucullus. Upright plants with curly 
light green leaves of mild flavor. A heavy 
yielder. 
M.-S. DELMONICO. This makes large, 
handsome, finely crimpled light green 
leaves which are tender and have a deli¬ 
cious flavor; the ribs are edible and not 
unlike asparagus. Absolutely the best for 
home-gardens. 
Georgia Collards 
Culture like cabbage. The lower leaves, 
pulled off and used same as cabbage sprouts 
and kale, are delicious. If you have never 
eaten it, you have missed a treat. 80 days.
