CURRIE'S GRAND RAPIDS (Extra Selected Stock) 



— The most popular of all Forcing Lettuce. On ac- 

 ceunt of its upright habit of growth it can be grown 



closer than other sorts, and is less liable to rot; the 

 leaves are light yellowish-green, excellent for ship- 

 ping and keep a long time without wilting. 1 oz., 10c; 

 1/4 lb., 30c; 1 lb., 90c Pkt. 5c 



TRIANON COS— -Sown at the same time as the head 

 Lettuces, this variety perfects compact, upright, tight- 

 ly folded cones within 60 days of sowing the seeds. 

 It folds of its own accord, no tying required, and in- 

 side leaves bleach naturally to a most attractive 

 greenish white. It is an ideal Lettuce for sowing 

 again during June for use during August when reg- 

 ular head Lettuces will not form solid plants. 1 oz., 

 15c; Vi lb., 50c; 1 lb., $1.15 Pkt. 10c 



NEW CHICKEN LETTUCE— 48 days. Here is a gen- 

 uine lettuce which will yield as much or more chicken 

 or rabbit feed as any "greens" plant. When cut it 

 starts at once to grow again. The leaves can be pulled 

 off each stem like a kale. It sends up a stout stalk 

 3 or 4 feet high, loaded with leaves. Oz., 10c; % lb., 

 35c; 1 lb., $1.00 Pkt. 5c 



MARTYTVIA 



MARTYNIA — The seedpods are used for pickling 

 when gathered young and tender. Sown in open 

 ground in May in hills 3 feet apart each way, or in 

 a hotbed and afterwards transplanted. If once plant- 

 ed in the garden voluntary plants are likely to spring 

 up the following year from scattered seeds. V2 oz.,
