SPINACH 
No plant makes more palatable and nutritious greens than Spinach. For 
spring and summer use, sow the seed in drills 1 foot apart and 1 inch deep, 
as early as the ground can be worked, and make successive sowings every 
2 weeks up to May 15th. Thin the plants to stand 6 inches apart in the row. 
For fall us sow the seed in early August; for spring use sow about September 
Ist. Keep Spinach well cultivated and water liberally during dry weather. 
One package of seed will sow 25 feet of row; 1 ounce 75 feet. 
America. ° sitver Medal Winner All-America Sefections 1952. Very thick, 
real glossy, dark green, crumpled and blistered leaf plant. Stand longer before 
going to seed and is heavier yielding than other kinds. You can start cutting 
it for the table in 50 days after you sow the seed and it will stand in the 
garden and not go to seed for another 25 days. This gives you a very long 
harvesting season of large plants of excellent quality.

«Blight-Resistant Savoy. 42 days. Plant this variety in the fall. We 
do not recommend it for spring as it goes to seed more quickly than most kinds 
during hot weather. This strain we offer here is almost as curled as Long 
Standing Bloomsdale. The savoyed and crumpled large dark green leaves of 
i upright growth make it a splendid variety for both home and market.
