be worked fine and plant more at 10 day intervals for a succession. Early varieties reach edible stage in

SALSIFY 
Oyster Plant 
Salsify is a delicious vege- 
table, surpassing in flavor both 
carrots and parsnips. It acquires 
a decided oyster flavor after a 
good frosting. Roots for winter

while those for early spring use 
may be left in the ground over 
winter. Sow early in spring as it 
requires the full season to mature.
