HOW TO GROW SPINACH 
@ Everybody knows that Spinach is high on the list of health-giving 
and body-building vegetables. Grow more and eat more. It is essentially 
a spring and autumn crop and delights in eool, moist weather. While 
an annual, it is so hardy that it may be sown in the autumn and 
carried over winter except in the extreme north, coming on very early 
in the spring. (See page 3 for preparation of the soil.) Abundant, 
quickly available plant food is desirable and an application of highly 
nitrogenous fertilizer is advantageous when the plants are about half 
grown. Plant to a depth of one inch in rows 16 to 20 inches apart, 
thin to 6 inches apart in the row. Spinach has had much attention 
from plant breeders the past few years and varieties are now much 
larger leaved, more succulent and remain in good, edible condition 
longer. Do not use poisonous insecticides for insect control. Plant 1 
ounce of seed to 100 feet of drill, 8 pounds per acre.
