Tastygreen, the wonder vegetable, 
is rich in protein, mineral matter, and 
other elements so necessary to the de- 
velopment and maintenance of the 
human system. ‘“‘Greens’” are highly 
essential to our well-being, and of 
these, Spinach is perhaps the most 
widely planted and the most widely 
used, although unpalatable to many. 
Tastygreen, the wonder vegetable, is 
far superior to Spinach or any of the 
other greens, and has a delicious flavor 
all its own, slightly and agreeably pun- 
gent with a Mustard taste when served 
hot, and when eaten raw, the flavor 
somewhat resembling raw :Turnips. 
Tastygreen has small thin roots, about 
two inches long, and large oblong 
shaped leaves, rich dark green color, 
with a narrow white center rib. ‘The © 
leaves, stem and all, are prepared for 
table use in the same manner as Spin- 
ach or Turnip greens. It is very pro- 
lific and bears abundantly. The plants 
grow quickly and are ready to use in
