dale Savoy as well as being remarkably resistant to blight. Being 
hardier than round seeded spinaches, it will stand cold and un- 
favorable weather. 
Spinach Seed Treatment 
Growers often have difficulty in securing a good stand of spin- . 
ach. This is often caused by damping-off of the young plants and 
may be controlled by treating the seed with Arasan Dust be- 
ae planting. Use this dust at the rate 4 oz. to 100 pounds of 
seed. ‘ 
However this treatment will not prevent young spinach plants 
from burning off during the hot summer months.
