BOLOIANO'i FARMERS' PRIDE LETTUCE. 



NATURE herself has allied with man to accomplish this most perfect production of vegetable life — The Farmers' Pride 

 Lettuce — MASSIVE, yet graceful as a rose and solid as a rock. Nature's most beautiful shade of green makes it 

 attract and delight the eye ; then what pleasure there is when the Farmers' Pride Lettuce is placed on the best ap- 

 pointed tables. It contains a heart of gold — not a small one, but a large, generous heart, enough for all. The outer 

 leaves, serving on the table as a background to this inviting dish, serve in the field in the coldest Winters as the heavy 

 protector to the tender, delicious heart within, and during the hottest and driest of the Summer days these same leaves 

 act as the protector against the rays of a July sun, by gathering and holding moisture to cool and nourish the plant. 

 Out of a very careful and highly successful test of more than a hundred and fifty Lettuces, the Farmers' Pride Lettuce is, 

 in our opinion, and in the judgment of many able, experienced and successful market gardeners, an absolute necessity to 

 any wide-awake, up-to-date grower of Vegetables. Sow the seed any time in the year you wish ; your crop will be the 

 finest you ever grew. Pkts., 5c. and 10c. Oz., 25c. 2 Ozs., 40c. 1/4 Lb., 60e. 1/2 Lb., 80c. Lb., SI. 50. 



IMPROVED WHITE LOAF LETTUCE,. 



AFTER the most careful cultivation and rogueing we have established the truest and most uniform strain of Improved 

 White Loaf Lettuce ever placed into the hands of the most critical and careful Lettuce growers. This stock is ever 

 better than the strain first introduced to the truckers. It is planted largely in the Fall, and allowed to remain in 

 the open ground all Winter. In the earliest Spring it quickly forms most delicious, large, light-colored lettuce heads. As 

 a frame lettuce it has no equal, often 18 heads have brought $2.50 wholesale. If planted in early Spring it quickly forms 

 heads and can be brought to market long before any other lettuce begins to head.

BOLGIANO'S NEW GOLDEN HEART LETTUCE Perfect in 



every detail. Early, large, handsome, most attractive, light color, ten- 

 der, crisp, solid, compact, with a sweet, nutty, golden-yellow heart. Its 

 flavor equals the heart of a well-seasoned Celery. It matures at any 

 season, and will grow on rich or poor land. We cannot say too much 

 about this leader among Lettuce, but you will say even more. Pkts., 

 5c. and 10c. Oz., 15c. 1/4 Lb., 50c. 1/3 Lb., 80c. Lb., Sl-50. 



BOLGIANO'S NEW EARLY SPRING LETTUCE.— In the early 

 Spring months this splendid Lettuce does its best, producing large, 

 Cabbage-like heads, which are uniform in size, tender, crisp, and'sell for 

 the highest prices in the market. Although a new variety, it has 

 already had a favorable introduction, and won approval from our best 

 Lettuce growers. Pkts., 5c. and 10c. Oz., 15c. 2 Ozs., 25c. 1/4 

 Lb., 40c. 1/2 Lb., 75c. Lb., S1.50. 



BOLGIANO'S OAK LEAF LETTUCE.— Is most remarkable for 

 resisting the Summer heat. It makes a first-class head, and retains its 

 marketable condition long after other sorts become worthless. For the 

 Summer season at the North and for the warmer climate at the South 

 it is especially desirable. Pkts., 5c. and 10c. Oz., 20c. 2 Ozs., 35c. 

 1/4 Lb., 50c. 1/2 Lb., 80c. Lb., SI. 50. 



I sowed in the frames last Fall some of your Farmers' Pride SS 

 Lettuce, thinned it out, placed the extra plants in the open 

 ground. The lettuce in the frames were large, massive, solid 

 head, and brought big returns; those I placed outside came to 

 head just as the frame lettuce was finished, they also were extra 

 fine. Last head was cut six months after seed was sown.
