SPINACH 
CULTURE—Sow in drills 16 to 20 inches apart, 
thin to 3 inches. For early use, sow in the fall, 
or sow in early spring for late spring or summer 
use. Fine fall spinach can be grown by planting 
seed August 20th to September lst, and winter 
spinach can be planted until October 15th.

GIANT CAVALLIUS—A giant from 
Denmark, valuable for greenhouse cul- 
ture; also for outside planting during late 
fall or winter in mild climates near the 
coast. It is claimed to produce 3 to 6 
times more than standard varieties. In 
greenhouses it develops its greatest pro- 
duction during a maximum day length of 
10 to 11 hours. The plants are tall with 
smooth leaves of bright green color. It 
grows rapidly and has splendid cooking 
qualities. If planted during spring and 
summer it will grow about like ordinary 
spinach. Therefore it should be planted 
in greenhouses for growth during the 
dark winter months. This is also true 
of outside culture in localities suited 
for it. Prickly seeded. Pkt. 15c; oz. 50c; 
1 Ib. $1.25; Ib. $3.00. 
ADVANCE—A new giant from Hol- 
land. Large heavy leaves of dark green. 
Ideal for home or market. Prickly seed- 
ed. Pkt. 10c; oz. 25c; %4 Ib. 45c; Ib. 90c. 
*GIANT LEAF — The largest and the 
most productive of any sort we have 
tried. Plants 20 inches across are not 
uncommon on good soil. The leaves are 
simply immense and deep green. Very 
heavy, brittle and tender. It is very slow 
to run to seed and is especially valuable 
for spring, summer and fall cutting. 
*NORTHLAND — A dark green selec- 
tion out of Giant Leaf. It has all the 
good characteristics of that variety and 
in addition, a darker color. 
*IMPROVED THICK LEAF or VIRO- 
FLAY—tThis variety is very popular and 
we have a fine strain of seed. The leaves 
are broad and smooth and of medium 
deep green. It will stand more cold 
weather than any other sort and is very 
popular for fall sowing and early spring. 
*LONG STANDING SAVOY — Early, 
with upright crumpled leaves. Slow 
bolting. 
New Zealand Spinach 
A good summer vegetable which re- 
sists the heat and can be cut throughout 
the season. Plant seed after the ground 
becomes warm. It differs in appearance 
from the regular spinach but is prepared 
in the same manner. Postpaid. Pkt. 10c; 
oz. 25c; %4 Ib. 65e; Ib. $1.50. 
Giant Leaf Spinach 
Rapa 
An Italian vegetable valuable for 
greens. Sow broadcast in mid-August for 
early fall use. Sown in mid-September, it 
provides fine greens very early in the 
spring. Foliage resembles turnips. The 
young, tender leaves surround a small 
head of fine, deep green buds. Both are 
cut for greens. If you like turnip greens, 
you will be pleased with this. Very 
nutritious and easy to grow. Pkt. 10c; 
oz. 30c; %4 Ib. 85e; Ib. $2.50. 
RUTABAGA 
CULTURE—Sow in drills, 3 feet apart; thin to 
6 inches apart. May be planted from June 15th to 
July 15th. The later sowings produce the best 
quality. Can be sown broadcast in mid-July.

golden yellow under ground with high 
quality yellow flesh. Our strain is very 
popular with market gardeners to whom 
we supply large quantities of seed. Post- 
paid. Pkt. 10¢; 0z. 20c; 14 Ib. 40c; Ib. $1.25.

SEEDS SMALL PART OF COST 
Why prepare and cultivate a garden with 
the cheapest seed? A few cents additional 
in cost of seed may spell the difference 
between success and failure. Our vegetable 
seeds are very popular with market gar- 
deners. Cheap seeds are usually dear at any 
cost. Yet, with all, our prices are reasonable 
and still maintain quality.
