How to Grow Spinach 
Sow seeds very early in the spring, either broad- 
cast or in rows 18 to 24 in. apart; cover the seed 
with 1 in. of soil and thin plants to stand 5 or 6in. 
apart in the rows. At each picking, remove every 
other plant, which will allow room for remaining 
plants to fully develop. Additional sowings may be 
made when the preceding planting is up and grow- 
ing, but the last should be two months before hot 
weather is expected. For fall use, sow in late sum- 
mer; for early spring use, where winters are mild, 
sow in early fall and cover with a few inches of 
hay, leaves or litter. A pkt. will sow 25 ft. of row; 
1 oz. 75 ft. Directions for growing New Zealand 
spinach'are given on the seed bags.

resembles spinach in appearance and flavor that 
most persons will not be aware of the difference. It 
makes strong plants which resist heat and produce 
.an abundanée of fleshy, brittle green leaves and 
young stem fips that“can-be picked repeatedly all 
during the summer and fall. Plants attain a spread 
of 4 ft. when fully grown‘and thrive in-any good 
soil in a warm location. One sowing will do for the 
season. It is not hardy so cannot stand frost. Seeds 
are large and should be soaked before planting.
