New Zealand or Everbearing 
(Hot Weather Spinach) 
A distinct type of Spinach with small 
green leaves, which make large, bushy 
plants, often 3 feet in diameter. Only 
the young leaves and tips of branches are 
used, and the more they are picked the 
faster the plant grows. It will give fine 
greens all summer and fall. Especially 
suited to dry and arid locations where 
other varieties do not do well. The only 
kind that can be successfully grown in 
extremely hot weather. Pkt., 10c; oz., 
Y Ib., 85c; lb., $2.50; 2 Ibs., $4.80, 
postpaid.

Stalks are very tender, do 
not grow large, and are in- 
tensely red—even the inside 
of the stalk is red clear 
through. When cooked or 
canned it is as red as straw- 
berry sauce. Mild and de- 
licious, requiring a minimum 
quantity of sugar. 
We have found this to be

You can have Rhubarb any time in the

The profit in growing Rhubarb is enormous, 
and the culture for open field is very sim- 
ple. Plant Rhubarb roots this spring; culti- 
vate well to secure large clumps of roots by 
fall. In the late fall take these clumps up 
and allow them to freeze for a few days 
and nights; then set them in barrels or 
boxes and put them in a cellar or any place 
where the temperature can be kept from 
50 to 70 degrees. Keep the soil moist—not 
wet—and in 4 or 5 weeks you will have 
Rhubarb large enough to use or sell on the 
market. You can get about three cuttings 
during the winter, when prices are high, 
and from $100.00 to $200.00 worth can be
