superior and is equally valuable for out-of-door

ing. Roots slightly elongated globe (so-called 
“Broad-olive’”” shape), 114 inches long when ideal 
for use, slender, well-defined tap root; uniform rich 
bright scarlet. Flesh white, crisp and of splendid

market gardeners. Tops are about an inch shorter

on muck land and upland soil.

EXTRA DARK GREEN LONG STANDING 
BLOOMSDALE. 40 days. A better and darker 
strain of the well-known, quick-growing Reselected 
Bloomsdale. It ships well and retains its fresh appear- 
ance on the market. Heavily savoyed. Should be 
used for early spring planting; quick to go to seed. 
SPECIAL SUMMER SAVOY LONG STANDING. 
45 days. Special Summer Savoy resembles in 
general appearance a fine strain of Long Standing 
Bloomsdale, except that it is a shade darker and 
more savoyed. Its greatest advantage is the fact 
that it will not go to seed as soon in the hot weather 
as other Spinach. Plants are large, uniform and 
compact. 
VIRGINIA BLIGHT RESISTANT. 38 days. Our 
strain is a true savoy adaptable for early fall plant- 
ing, as it is a little quicker maturing than Old 
Dominion. For sections where mosaic is prevalent 
we recommend this highly desirable variety. 
HARLEM MARKET. 40 days. Contrary to all 
other Bloomsdale types, Harlem Market has prickly 
seed. It is more vigorous than Bloomsdale Long 
Standing. Dark leaves, glossy, thick and crumpled. 
Mostly used for seeding in winter while the ground is 
still hard. 
KING OF DENMARK. 46 days. The leaves are 
large, smooth or somewhat crumpled and very 
dark green; long petioles. The plants remain a long 
time in marketable condition without going to seed. 
One of the best varieties for spring sowing. 
OLD DOMINION (BLIGHT RESISTANT). 45 
days. The finest of all blight-resistant Spinach. 
Most heavily savoyed, darkest green and slowest to 
bolt to seed in the spring. Used as a fall Spinach 
and also as a winter carry-over for early spring 
cutting. Our stock has been outstanding in all parts 
of the country. 
VIKING or HEAVY PACK. 45 days. Plants are 
large, vigorous, long standing and give tremendous 
yields. Leaves are very large, smooth, thick and of 
a very dark green color, which makes it especially 
valuable for freezing, market gardeners and can- 
ning.
