early fall when cool weather is most favorable for its 
growth. Also suitable for quick freezing. The New Zea- 
land Spinach will supply delicious ‘‘greens” throughout 
the summer and fall. It withstands 
heat, as does Swiss Chard and Tam- 
pala. Why not plant some of each

rich fresh “greens’’ throughout the

; appearance and flavor that most persons will not be aware of the difference. 
It makes strong plants which resist heat and produce an abundance of 
fleshy, brittle green leaves and young stem tips that can be picked repeated- 
ly all during the summer and fall. Plants attain a spread of 4 ft. when fully 
grown and thrive in any good soil in a warm location. Seeds are large, hard 
horned and slow to germinate; it is advisable to soak them over night before 
planting and do not sow outdoors until soil is warm. One sowing will do for 
the season. Pkt. 15¢; oz. 35¢; 1% Ib. $1.00; 14 lb. $1.80 
How to Grow SPINACH 
Sow seeds very early in the spring, either broadcast or in rows 18 to 
24 in. apart; cover the seed with 1 in. of soil and thin plants to stand 
5 or 6 in. apart in the rows. At each picking, remove every other 
plant, which will allow room for remaining plants to fully develop. 
Additional sowings may be made when the preceding planting is up 
and growing, but the last should be two months before hot weather is 
expected. For fall use, sow in late summer; for early spring use, where 
winters are mild, sow in*early fall and cover with a few inches of hay, 
leaves or litter. A pkt. will sow 25 ft. of row; 1 oz. 75 ft. Directions 
for growing New Zealand spinach are given on the seed: bags.
