LIST OF TESTED GARDEN SEEDS FOR 1920. 35 SPINACH For summer use, sow at intervals of 2 or 3 weeks from April to August, and for winter crops, sow in September, covering it, in exposed places, with straw, to protect it from severe frost. 1 ox. to 100 feet, of drill. 8 lbs. to the acre. LONG SEASON "; A remarkably hardy Spinach yielding an abundance of large, thick, dark green crumpled leaves, which retain their crispness much longer than any other variety and slow to run to seed. With this new sort, Spinach may be grown continuously throughout the entire season. It is not only hardier and more lasting than any of the large leaved sorts, but it possesses the further merit of being a profuse yielder.
