Spinach 
(Spinace, Espinaca, Spinat) 
CULTURE—One ounce of seed will plant 200 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.

den; fine for canning.
