HENDERSON’S PERFECTED 
SALAMANDER LETTUCE. 
A SPLENDID EARLY SUMMER VARIETY. 
Lettuces naturally thrive better during the cooler 
weather of spring and fall than in a torrid summer, 
the season really when such crisp, cooling salad is 
most enjoyable and in great demand, consequently 
there has been bred a number of heat-resisting or sum- 
mer lettuces, among which our Perfected Salamander 
is the acknowledged leader of its class. It forms 
good-sized, compact and tender heads, creamy-white 
inside and of that desirable rich buttery flavor; outer 
color, light green; it remains long in head without 
running to seed, and stands a great amount of heat 
without burning. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. 0z.,

HENDERSON’S NEW YORK LETTUCE. 
THIS IS THE KING OF MAIN CROP HEAD LETTUCES. 
It produces immense heads, often 15 and 16 inches across, and weigh- 
ing enormously. The interior is beautifully blanched, creamy-white, 
crisp, tender and delicious, being absolutely free from any trace of 
bitterness. It is a very large, robust-growing variety, rooting deeply, 
resisting hot, dry weather, very slow to run to seed and a sure header 
under most trying conditions. The outer color is of a distinct apple- 
green. We introduced this 
variety a number of years ago, 
and it has been extensively 
grown by our customers in al- 
most all sections of the coun- 
try and from whom we receive 
most gratifying reports. Asa 
standard main summer crop, 
hot weather Lettuce it is in 
every way desirable and has 
no equal, but is not recom- 
mended for forcing. (See cut.)
