_ SPINACH KING OF DENMARK. Pkt., 10c. 
Spinach 
ACH delights in cool, moist weather. Seed 
should be sown at the earliest possible moment 
in spring in rows one foot apart and thinned to six 
‘inches in the row. It matures in 45 to 50 days and 
quickly runs to seed in warm weather. The Antvor- 
“skov variety, listed below, is most free from this 
tendency. Heme gardeners have generally adopted 
Swiss Chard and New Zealand Spinach as a greens 
crop, as both may be cut many times and will pro- 
uce a continuous crop until freezing weather in the 
fall. A fall crop of spinach may be sown in late 
July or August and will find the cool, moist autumn 
weather favorable for growth. The value of spinach 
in the diet has been scientifically established by 
| the vitamin investigation.
