This recipe was extracted from The Cook County cook book (1912) by Associated College Women Workers, page 273. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

BOILED DINNER WITH GREENS.— Choose any kind of greens desired, as turnip, beet, radish, or mustard tops, pig-weed, lamb's quarter, polk leaves, and stalk and clean thoroughly. Soak for half an hour in salted water to remove any small insects, which are always on these plants, though invisible to the naked eye. Wash out of this water, and put into a kettle with a good-sized piece of salt pork for seasoning. Cook with plenty of water for 1 hr. Add as many potatoes as required for the meal
