Corn Salad 
Valerianella olitoria 15¢ pkt. 
The French call it Mache, the Germans 
Felt Salat and both rave about it but it 
seems a lot of picking for a little eating 
to us. Can be sown in mid-summer for a 
fall and winter greens. 12 inches. Sun. 
Garden Cress 
Lepidium sativum 15¢ pkt. 
Fast growing, peppery, frilly Cress that 
is ready for thinning and eating like 
Watercress in three to four weeks. Sow 
early and often and eat when young and 
tender. 18 inches. Sun or part shade. 
Dill 
Anethum graveolens 10¢ pkt. 
If you grow cucumbers and like Dill 
pickles, plant two or three times during 
the summer to have asupply of green 
leaves for garnishing and seasoning as 
well as plenty of flower heads for the 
pickle crock. 4 feet Sun. 
Fennel 
Foeniculum vulgare var. dulce 10¢ pkt. 
Big, bulbous-stalked Finocchio can be 
eaten raw, like celery,or cooked and served 
with butter or Hollandaise. Usually plant- 
ed in the fall for late out-of-the-garden 
eating. Ready for picking in 60 days.

Curly Parsley 
Petroselinum hortense 10¢ pkt. 
Prettiest garnish;often used as a bor- 
der in part shade. Allow several weeks for 
the seed to come up. Mixing it with Radish 
seed and eating the radishes as the Parsley 
is first showing is a good cure for im- 
patience. Goes to seed the second year.
