SPINACH—(Continued) 
CULTURE. Spinach requires rich ground, the richer the better. Sow in drills about 16 inches 
apart and thin to 3 inches apart in the rows when the leaves are an inch wide. In the North, the 
seed can be planted as soon as the ground can be prepared. In the South, spinach will winter over 
with little or no protection but in the North when planted in the fall for spring use, the plants 
should be protected with a light covering of leaves or straw.
