- Spinach appears to be an exception when judged by the data in Table 3. The Na content of spinach was highest, however, in the east north-central states. The average Na content of spinach from those states was 0.86%, in comparison with only 0.06% Na in Colorado spinach.
- Southern Cooperative Series Bulletin 2, Georgia Agricultural Experiment Station, 1944, on the "effect of fertilizer and environment on the iron content of turnip greens," by M. Spiers, et al., is of interest in the connection.
